TL;DR: Crystal models of RS from the pathogenic bacterium Brucella abortus, being the first time that the structure of an intact RS trimer with bound ligands has been solved, support the hypothesis of enhanced flexibility in the particle and highlight the role of the ligands in assembling the unique active site.
Abstract: Riboflavin synthase (RS) catalyzes the last step of riboflavin biosynthesis in microorganisms and plants, which corresponds to the dismutation of two molecules of 6,7-dimethyl-8-ribityllumazine to yield one molecule of riboflavin and one molecule of 5-amino-6-ribitylamino-2,4(1H,3H)-pyrimidinedione. Owing to the absence of this enzyme in animals and the fact that most pathogenic bacteria show a strict dependence on riboflavin biosynthesis, RS has been proposed as a potential target for antimicrobial drug development. Eubacterial, fungal and plant RSs assemble as homotrimers lacking C3 symmetry. Each monomer can bind two substrate molecules, yet there is only one active site for the whole enzyme, which is located at the interface between two neighbouring chains. This work reports the crystallographic structure of RS from the pathogenic bacterium Brucella abortus (the aetiological agent of the disease brucellosis) in its apo form, in complex with riboflavin and in complex with two different product analogues, being the first time that the structure of an intact RS trimer with bound ligands has been solved. These crystal models support the hypothesis of enhanced flexibility in the particle and also highlight the role of the ligands in assembling the unique active site. Kinetic and binding studies were also performed to complement these findings. The structural and biochemical information generated may be useful for the rational design of novel RS inhibitors with antimicrobial activity.

TL;DR: The aims of this work were to develop an efficient screening methodology for the rapid characterization and to identify XccBphP variants that favor the Pfr form, and this method could be easily adapted to other phytochromes or other photoreceptor families.

TL;DR: It is shown that GSEA and SEA lead to different results depending on the chosen statistic, model and/or parameters, and an Integrative Functional Analysis tool is proposed to improve information retrieval in FA.
