Abstract:

DNA crystallography provides essential structural information to understand the biochemical and biological functions of oligonucleotides. Therefore, it is necessary to understand the factors affecting crystallization of DNA to develop a strategy for production of diffraction-quality DNA crystals. We analyzed key factors affecting intermolecular interactions in 509 DNA crystals from the Nucleic Acid Database and Protein Databank. Packing interactions in DNA crystals were classified into four categories based on the intermolecular hydrogen bonds in base or backbone, and their correlations with other factors were analyzed. From this analysis, we confirmed that hydrogen bonding between terminal end and mid-region is most common in crystal packing and in high-resolution crystal structures. Interestingly, P212121 is highly preferred in DNA crystals in general, but the P61 space group is relatively abundant in A-DNA crystals. Accordingly, P212121 contains more terminal end-mid-region interactions than other space groups, confirming the significance of this interaction. While metals play a role in the production of a good crystal in B-DNA conformation, their effect is not significant in other conformations. From these analyses, we found that packing interaction and other factors have a strong influence on the quality of DNA crystals and provide key information to predict crystal growth of candidate oligonucleotides.

Abstract:

Protein and DNA co-crystals are most commonly prepared to reveal structural and functional details of DNA-binding proteins when subjected to X-ray diffraction. However, biomolecular crystals are notoriously unstable in solution conditions other than their native growth solution. To achieve greater application utility beyond structural biology, biomolecular crystals should be made robust against harsh conditions. To overcome this challenge, we optimized chemical DNA ligation within a co-crystal. Co-crystals from two distinct DNA-binding proteins underwent DNA ligation with the carbodiimide crosslinking agent 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide (EDC) under various optimization conditions: 5′ vs. 3′ terminal phosphate, EDC concentration, EDC incubation time, and repeated EDC dose. This crosslinking and DNA ligation route did not destroy crystal diffraction. In fact, the ligation of DNA across the DNA–DNA junctions was clearly revealed via X-ray diffraction structure determination. Furthermore, crystal macrostructure was fortified. Neither the loss of counterions in pure water, nor incubation in blood serum, nor incubation at low pH (2.0 or 4.5) led to apparent crystal degradation. These findings motivate the use of crosslinked biomolecular co-crystals for purposes beyond structural biology, including biomedical applications.

Abstract:

Monkey kidney epithelial cells of the nontransformed BSC-1 line were used as a model system with which to search for biological responses to urinary crystals commonly found in renal stones. Calcium oxalate monohydrate (COM), the most common urinary crystal, was avidly internalized, initiated DNA synthesis, and stimulated cell multiplication. The increase in DNA synthesis observed after exposure to COM crystals was equivalent in magnitude to that of 10% calf serum, but occurred 8 h later. Maximal stimulation of DNA synthesis by COM was associated with crystal endocytosis by 50% of the cell monolayer. COM crystals also stimulated DNA synthesis and multiplication of canine kidney epithelial cells (MDCK line). As COM stimulated growth of both monkey and canine renal cells but not fibroblasts, the mitogenic effect of this crystal appeared cell-type specific. Hydroxyapatite also enhanced multiplication of BSC-1 cells, whereas brushite, another calcium-containing urinary crystal, did not. In the presence of nephrocalcin (NC), a glycoprotein in normal human urine that inhibits nucleation, aggregation, and growth of COM crystals, the capacity of these crystals to initiate DNA synthesis was blocked. This is the first demonstration that specific calcium-containing urinary crystals can induce proliferation of renal epithelial cells and that NC can inhibit this effect.

Abstract:

Three-dimensional dielectric photonic crystals have well-established enhanced light–matter interactions via high Q factors. Their plasmonic counterparts based on arrays of nanoparticles, however, have not been experimentally well explored owing to a lack of available synthetic routes for preparing them. However, such structures should facilitate these interactions based on the small mode volumes associated with plasmonic polarization. Herein we report strong light-plasmon interactions within 3D plasmonic photonic crystals that have lattice constants and nanoparticle diameters that can be independently controlled in the deep subwavelength size regime by using a DNA-programmable assembly technique. The strong coupling within such crystals is probed with backscattering spectra, and the mode splitting (0.10 and 0.24 eV) is defined based on dispersion diagrams. Numerical simulations predict that the crystal photonic modes (Fabry–Perot modes) can be enhanced by coating the crystals with a silver layer, achieving moderate Q factors (∼102) over the visible and near-infrared spectrum.

Abstract:

Single crystals of B-DNA and Z-DNA oligomers were analyzed under high hydrostatic pressure and their behavior was compared to the A-DNA crystals already known. The amplitude of the base compression, when compared to the A-form of DNA (0.13 Å/GPa), was higher for the Z-DNA (0.32 Å/GPa) and was the highest for the B-DNA (0.42 Å/GPa). The B-DNA crystal degraded rapidly around 400–500 MPa, while the Z-structure was more resistant, up to 1.2 GPa.

Abstract:

DNA is a very useful molecule for the programmed self-assembly of 3D (three dimension) nanoscale structures. The organised 3D DNA assemblies and crystals enable scientists to conduct studies for many applications such as enzymatic catalysis, biological immune analysis and photoactivity. The first self-assembled 3D DNA single crystal was reported by Seeman and his colleagues, based on a rigid triangle tile with the tile side length of two turns. Till today, successful designs of 3D single crystals by means of programmed self-assembly are countable, and still remain as the most challenging task in DNA nanotechnology, due to the highly constrained conditions for rigid tiles and precise packing. We reported here the use of small circular DNA molecules instead of linear ones as the core triangle scaffold to grow 3D single crystals. Several crystallisation parameters were screened, DNA concentration, incubation time, water-vapour exchange speed, and pH of the sampling buffer. Several kinds of DNA single crystals with different morphologies were achieved in macroscale. The crystals can provide internal porosities for hosting guest molecules of Cy3 and Cy5 labelled triplex-forming oligonucleotides (TFOs). Success of small circular DNA molecules in self-assembling 3D single crystals encourages their use in DNA nanotechnology regarding the advantage of rigidity, stability, and flexibility of circular tiles.

Abstract:

In macromolecular crystallography, a great deal of effort has been invested in understanding radiation-damage progression. While the sensitivity of protein crystals has been well characterized, crystals of DNA and of DNA–protein complexes have not thus far been studied as thoroughly. Here, a systematic investigation of radiation damage to a crystal of a DNA 16-mer diffracting to 1.8 Å resolution and held at 100 K, up to an absorbed dose of 45 MGy, is reported. The RIDL (Radiation-Induced Density Loss) automated computational tool was used for electron-density analysis. Both the global and specific damage to the DNA crystal as a function of dose were monitored, following careful calibration of the X-ray flux and beam profile. The DNA crystal was found to be fairly radiation insensitive to both global and specific damage, with half of the initial diffraction intensity being lost at an absorbed average diffraction-weighted dose, D 1/2, of 19 MGy, compared with 9 MGy for chicken egg-white lysozyme crystals under the same beam conditions but at the higher resolution of 1.4 Å. The coefficient of sensitivity of the DNA crystal was 0.014 Å2 MGy−1, which is similar to that observed for proteins. These results imply that the significantly greater radiation hardness of DNA and RNA compared with protein observed in a DNA–protein complex and an RNA–protein complex could be due to scavenging action by the protein, thereby protecting the DNA and RNA in these studies. In terms of specific damage, the regions of DNA that were found to be sensitive were those associated with some of the bound calcium ions sequestered from the crystallization buffer. In contrast, moieties farther from these sites showed only small changes even at higher doses.

Abstract:

Fluoroquinolone drugs such as moxifloxacin kill bacteria by stabilizing the normally transient double-stranded DNA breaks created by bacterial type IIA topoisomerases. Previous crystal structures of Staphylococcus aureus DNA gyrase with asymmetric DNAs have had static disorder (with the DNA duplex observed in two orientations related by the pseudo-twofold axis of the complex). Here, 20-base-pair DNA homoduplexes were used to obtain crystals of covalent DNA-cleavage complexes of S. aureus DNA gyrase. Crystals with QPT-1, moxifloxacin or etoposide diffracted to between 2.45 and 3.15 Å resolution. A G/T mismatch introduced at the ends of the DNA duplexes facilitated the crystallization of slightly asymmetric complexes of the inherently flexible DNA-cleavage complexes.

Abstract:

Single crystals of d(CTCCTSCCGCGCG)·d(CGCGCGGAG) have been grown by the vapor-diffusion method using 2-methyl-2,4-pentanediol as a precipitant. The crystals are tetragonal, space group P42, with unit-cell parameters a = b = 53.8, c = 43.1 Å, and diffract to 1.8 Å resolution at a synchrotron X-ray beamline. In the crystal, the asymmetric unit contains one copy of the construct. The two halves of the structure are related by non-crystallographic twofold symmetry. These observations are consistent with the conclusion that the sequences of the 12-mer and 9-mer oligonucleotides form a duplex DNA at one end and a triplex DNA at the other end.

Abstract:

The linear, double-helical structure of DNA was initially recognized as beautiful, as well as being informative about the mechanism of heredity. Recently, branched DNA molecules have been used to produce nanoscale objects, crystals and machines, all the products of a new field: structural DNA nanotechnology. The inspiration for much of this work has been art, starting from the notion that Escher's woodcut Depth was analogous to a molecular crystal of branched DNA. The article describes how connecting branched molecules together with the “sticky ends” used by genetic engineers has led to 3D crystals, and how Dalí's Butterfly Landscape illuminates the relationship between wrappings of DNA and the crossings in knots or links. Disparate aesthetic patterns are related to branched DNA motifs and constructions.

Abstract:

DNA-dependent RNA polymerase is the key enzyme responsible for the biosynthesis of RNA, a process known as transcription. This process, which decodes the genetic information from DNA, is one of the most significant events in a biological system. The crystallization of both native and a chimeric T7/T3 RNAP using high-salt conditions has been reported previously but these conditions proved unsuitable for DNA–RNAP complex formation since at high-salt concentrations the DNA binding affinity to RNAP is reduced. A search for low-salt crystallization conditions has yielded new low-salt crystals of native T7-RNAP, a chimeric T7-RNAP (T7/T3 RNAP) which contains the T3 promoter recognition sequence, and a T7-RNAP containing an N-terminal histidine tag. The crystals, which are better suited for DNA–RNAP complex formation, belong to space group P3121 with a = 136, c = 156 Å, contain a single molecule per asymmetric unit and diffract to 2.7 Å resolution. Packing analysis shows that the new low-salt crystals have packing contacts similar to those observed in the high-salt T7-RNAP crystals reported previously. The diffraction anisotropicity observed in crystals of T7 RNAP is explained in term of crystal packing.

Abstract:

One of the most difficult steps in the X-ray crystallography of nucleic acids is obtaining crystals that diffract to high resolution. The choice of the nucleotide sequence has proven to be more important in producing high-quality crystals than the composition of the crystallization solution. This manuscript describes a systematic procedure for identifying the optimal sizes of a multi-stranded nucleic acid complex which provide high-quality crystals. This approach was used to crystallize the in vitro evolved 10-23 DNA enzyme complexed with its RNA substrate. In less than two months, 81 different enzyme–substrate complexes were generated by combinatorial mixing and annealing of complementary oligonucleotides which differed in length, resulting in duplexes of varying length, with or without nucleotide overhangs. Each of these complexes was screened against a standard set of 48 crystallization conditions and evaluated for crystal formation. The screen resulted in over 40 crystal forms, the best of which diffracted to 2.8 Å resolution when exposed to a synchrotron X-ray source.

Abstract:

A versatile method for the design of colloidal crystals involves the use of DNA as a particle-directing ligand. With such systems, DNA-nanoparticle conjugates are considered programmable atom equivalents (PAEs), and design rules have been devised to engineer crystallization outcomes. This work shows that when reduced in size and DNA grafting density, PAEs behave as electron equivalents (EEs), roaming through and stabilizing the lattices defined by larger PAEs, as electrons do in metals in the classical picture. This discovery defines a new property of colloidal crystals—metallicity—that is characterized by the extent of EE delocalization and diffusion. As the number of strands increases or the temperature decreases, the EEs localize, which is structurally reminiscent of a metal-insulator transition. Colloidal crystal metallicity, therefore, provides new routes to metallic, intermetallic, and compound phases.

Abstract:

DNA-grafted nanoparticles have been called “programmable atom-equivalents”: Like atoms, they form three-dimensional crystals, but unlike atoms, the particles themselves carry information (the sequences of the grafted strands) that can be used to “program” the equilibrium crystal structures. We show that the programmability of these colloids can be generalized to the full temperature-dependent phase diagram, not just the crystal structures themselves. We add information to the buffer in the form of soluble DNA strands designed to compete with the grafted strands through strand displacement. Using only two displacement reactions, we program phase behavior not found in atomic systems or other DNA-grafted colloids, including arbitrarily wide gas-solid coexistence, reentrant melting, and even reversible transitions between distinct crystal phases.

Abstract:

Homing endonucleases are highly specific DNA-cleaving enzymes that recognize and cleave long stretches of DNA. The engineering of these enzymes provides instruments for genome modification in a wide range of fields, including gene targeting. The homing endonuclease I-SceI from the yeastSaccharomyces cerevisiaehas been purified after overexpression inEscherichia coliand its crystal structure has been determined in complex with its target DNA. In order to evaluate the number of ions that are involved in the cleavage process, thus determining the catalytic mechanism, crystallization experiments were performed in the presence of Mn2+, yielding crystals that were suitable for X-ray diffraction analysis. The crystals belonged to the orthorhombic space groupP212121, with unit-cell parametersa= 80.11,b= 80.57,c= 130.87 Å, α = β = γ = 90°. The self-rotation function and the Matthews coefficient suggested the presence of two protein–DNA complexes in the asymmetric unit. The crystals diffracted to a resolution limit of 2.9 Å using synchrotron radiation. From the anomalous data, it was determined that three cations are involved in catalysis and it was confirmed that I-SceI follows a two-metal-ion DNA-strand cleavage mechanism.

Abstract:

The HigA2 antitoxin and the HigBA2 toxin–antitoxin complex fromVibrio choleraewere crystallized in complex with their operator box. Screening of 22 different DNA duplexes led to two crystal forms of HigA2 complexes and one crystal form of a HigBA2 complex. Crystals of HigA2 in complex with a 17 bp DNA duplex belong to space groupP3221, with unit-cell parametersa=b= 94.0,c= 123.7 Å, and diffract to 2.3 Å resolution. The second form corresponding to HigA2 in complex with a 19 bp duplex belong to space groupP43212 and only diffract to 3.45 Å resolution. Crystals of the HigBA2 toxin–antitoxin were obtained in complex with a 31 bp duplex and belonged to space groupP41212, with unit-cell parametersa=b= 113.6,c= 121.1 Å. They diffract to 3.3 Å resolution.

Abstract:

The ability to predictably control the coassembly of multiple nanoscale building blocks, especially those with disparate chemical and physical properties such as biomolecules and inorganic nanoparticles, has far-reaching implications in catalysis, sensing, and photonics, but a generalizable strategy for engineering specific contacts between these particles is an outstanding challenge. This is especially true in the case of proteins, where the types of possible interparticle interactions are numerous, diverse, and complex. Herein, we explore the concept of trading protein–protein interactions for DNA–DNA interactions to direct the assembly of two nucleic-acid–functionalized proteins with distinct surface chemistries into six unique lattices composed of catalytically active proteins, or of a combination of proteins and DNA-modified gold nanoparticles. The programmable nature of DNA–DNA interactions used in this strategy allows us to control the lattice symmetries and unit cell constants, as well as the compositions and habit, of the resulting crystals. This study provides a potentially generalizable strategy for constructing a unique class of materials that take advantage of the diverse morphologies, surface chemistries, and functionalities of proteins for assembling functional crystalline materials.
