An Integrated Platform Based on Bacterial Microcompartment for de novo Proteinaceous Artificial Organelles

Known Conditions

This table illustrate some basic information of pdu shell protein family.[http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20417607]

Table 1| Basic information of pdu shell protein family.

Figure 1| 3-dimension structure of the known shell proteins from Salmonella enterica . UPPER: pduU. [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18786396] MIDDLE: pduA. [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20870711] DOWN：pduT. [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20870711 [3]]

Hypothesis

I）Pdu N is the vertex and its pentametic structuresfor its identity with a proved vertex pentametic protein---CcmL. [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18292340]

II) Hexamers forms the facets, which comprises the building blocks of bacterial microcompartment shells. [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17518518]

Figure 2| LEFT: A diagram showing the construction of a large icosahedron from many smaller hexagons and 12 pentagons at the vertices. The figure shown has a triangulation number (T) of 75 (29). RIGHT: Individual CsoS1A molecules, typical shell proteins, are differently in each hexamer.

III) Similarity of the shell proteins to the carboxysome [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12923081] and carboxysome is believed to be in icosohedral shape.

Results

From the paper data of EM observation:

Then we decide to count the molecular copies of each structural basic element.

Relative abundance [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12923081 [6]]

pdu -J:-A:-B':-B:-K:-T:-U=15:10:7:6:1:1:2

the diameter of a hexamer is 7 nm

the edge is 3.5 nm

the area of a hexamer is 31.8255 nm²

then the number of hexamer is 23936.353 nm²/31.8255 nm²=752.11

So. in total 752 hexamers

Because B, B' and T have two BMC domains, so they form trimer instead

(15t+10t+t+2t)/6+(7t+6t+t)/3=752 => t=77.8

Table 2| The distribution of shell proteins in microcompartment.

Conclusion

Explanation about the size.

Typical size of a prokaryotes is 1~10 µm

Diameter of a Pdu Microcompartment is 100nm=0.1 µm

Volume of a Pdu Microcompartment is 317018.839 nm³ ~=320000 nm³=3.2*105 nm3=3.2*10^-4 µm³

Bacterium, are about 2 µm long and 0.5 µm in diameter, with a cell volume of 0.6 - 0.7 µm³

=> Conclusion:　about 1875　Pdu microcompartments can fill a bacterial cell！
