The complex of bovine factor Xa and recombinant tick anticoagulant peptide (rTAP) was crystallized in two different crystal forms using polyethylene glycol as a precipitant. Form I belongs to space group P42212 with unit-cell dimensions a = b = 133.1, c = 68.8 Å. It contains one complex per asymmetric unit and diffracts to 3.0 Å resolution. Form II belongs to P41212 (or P43212) with dimensions a = b = 126.5, c = 146.7 Å; it contains two complexes per asymmetric unit and diffracts to 2.5 Å. The crystals of both forms consist of factor Xa (MW  = 45.3 kDa) and rTAP (MW = 6.7 kDa).

Axes Of Symmetry

The etiologic agent of tuberculosis, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, has been shown to secrete the enzyme glutamine synthetase (TB-GS) which is apparently essential for infection. Four crystal forms of a recombinant TB-GS were grown. The one chosen for synchrotron X-ray data collection belongs to space group P212121 with unit-cell dimensions 208 × 258 × 274 Å, yielding 2.4 Å resolution data. A Matthews number of 2.89 Å3 Da−1 is found, corresponding to 24 subunits of molecular mass 1300 kDa in the asymmetric unit. From earlier work, the structure of Salmonella typhimurium GS, which is 51% identical in sequence to TB-GS, is known to be dodecameric with 622 symmetry. Self-rotation calculations on the TB-GS X-ray data reveal only one set of sixfold and twofold axes of symmetry. A Patterson map calculated from the native X-ray data confirms that there are two dodecamers in the asymmetric unit, having both their sixfold and twofold axes parallel to one another.

Recombinant β-1,4-galactanase from Aspergillus aculeatus has been crystallized and characterized by X-ray diffraction. Crystals were obtained in hanging drops by vapour-diffusion under the conditions 30% PEG 400, 0.2 M CaCl2 and 0.1 M Na HEPES buffered to pH 7.5. The crystals diffract to 2.3 Å resolution and belong to one of the orthorhombic space groups I222 or I212121. The unit-cell dimensions are a = 60.42, b = 88.94 and c = 129.08 Å. With one molecule in the asymmetric unit, the corresponding solvent content is ∼48%.

6-Phospho-α-glucosidase (GlvA) is the protein involved in the dissimilation of α-glycosides accumulated via a phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent maltose phosphotransferase system (PEP-PTS) in Bacillus subtilis. The purified enzyme has been crystallized in a form suitable for X-ray diffraction analysis. Thin rod-like crystals have been grown by the hanging-drop method in the presence of manganese and NAD. They diffract beyond 2.2 Å using synchrotron radiation and belong to the space group I222 (or its enantiomorph) with unit-cell dimensions a = 83.26, b = 102.56, c = 145.31 Å and contain a single molecule of GlvA in the asymmetric unit.

The homotetrameric holo-D-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase from the hyperthermophilic archaeon Methanothermus fervidus has been crystallized in the presence of NADP+ using the hanging-drop vapour-diffusion method. Crystals grew from a solution containing 2-methyl-2,4-pentanediol and magnesium acetate. A native data set has been collected to 2.1 Å using synchrotron radiation and cryocooling. Diffraction data have been processed in the orthorhombic system (space group P21212) with unit-cell dimensions a = 136.7, b = 153.3, c = 74.9 Å and one tetramer per asymmetric unit.

Recombinant pigeon-liver malic enzyme was expressed in Escherichia coli and purified to homogeneity. Two different crystal forms were grown by the hanging-drop vapour-diffusion method. Both types of crystals belong to the tetragonal space group P4222, with unit-cell dimensions a = b = 163.8, c = 174.3 Å for the octahedral crystals and a = b = 124.5, c = 179.2 Å for the rod-like crystals. X-ray diffraction data were collected at 100 K using a synchrotron-radiation X-ray source. The Matthews parameter suggests that there are four and two molecules per asymmetric unit for the larger and the smaller tetragonal unit cells, respectively.

Crystals of Trypanosoma cruzi dUTPase have been grown. Two different morphologies are observed, depending on the molecular weight of the PEG used as precipitating agent in the mother liquor, both having a hexagonal unit cell with similar dimensions. Complete X-ray diffraction data have been collected to low resolution for one of the forms. The space group is P6322, with unit-cell dimensions a = 134.15, c = 147.05 Å. Peaks in the self-rotation function and the solvent content are consistent with two molecules of dUTPase per asymmetric unit.

The enzyme catalase (H2O2–H2O2 oxidoreductase; E.C. 11.1.6) was purified from haemolysate of human placenta and crystallized using the vapour-diffusion technique. Synchrotron-radiation diffraction data have been collected to 1.76 Å resolution. The enzyme crystallized in the space group P212121, with unit-cell dimensions a = 83.6, b = 139.4, c = 227.5 Å. A molecular-replacement solution of the structure has been obtained using beef liver catalase (PDB code 4blc) as a search model.

AbstractSingle crystals of the hydrous cadmium borate Cd6B22O39·H2O were obtained through a high-pressure/high-temperature experiment at 4.7 GPa and 1000 °C using a Walker-type multianvil apparatus. CdO and partially hydrolyzed B2O3 were used as starting materials. A single crystal X-ray diffraction study has revealed that the structure of Cd6B22O39·H2O is similar to that of the type M6B22O39·H2O (M=Fe, Co). Layers of corner-sharing BO4 groups are interconnected by BO3 groups to form channels containing the metal cations, which are six- and eight-fold coordinated by oxygen atoms. The compound crystallizes in the space group Pnma (no. 62) [R1=0.0379, wR2=0.0552 (all data)] with the unit cell dimensions a=1837.79(5), b=777.92(2), c=819.08(3) pm, and V=1171.00(6) Å3. The IR and Raman spectra reflect the structural characteristics of Cd6B22O39·H2O.

AbstractA series of five synthetic tetrahedrite-group minerals has been prepared and examined using powder X-ray diffraction in order to update current powder data and provide a validation test of cell dimension prediction equations. The tetrahedrites (nominally (Cu10X2)Sb4S13 with X = Zn, Cd, Mn, Hg and Fe) have the following properties: zincian tetrahedrite, a = 10.3833 (1) Å, Dx = 4.974 (1) g/cm3, F30 = 264 (0.004, 31), M20 = 279; cadmian tetrahedrite, a = 10.5066 (1) Å, Dx = 5.073 (1) g/cm3, F30 = 208 (0.004, 37), M20 = 249; manganoan tetrahedrite, a = 10.4384 (1) Å, Dx = 4.822 (1) g/cm3, F30 = 274 (0.003, 33), M20 = 302; mercurian tetrahedrite, a = 10.5071 (1) Å, Dx = 5.570 (1) g/cm3, F30 = 150 (0.006, 35), M20 = 156; ferroan tetrahedrite, a = 10.3630 (1) Å, Dx = 5.002 (1) g/cm3, F30 = 253 (0.004, 33), M20 = 281. The experimental unit cell dimensions obtained in this study are in excellent agreement with calculated values produced using regression equations developed previously.
