Low temperature is a major limiting factor for plant growth and development. Dehydrin proteins are generally induced in response to low-temperature stress. In previous research, a full-length dehydrin gene,PicW2, was isolated fromPicea wilsoniiand its expression was associated with hardiness to cold. In order to gain insight into the mechanism of low-temperature tolerance by studying its three-dimensional crystal structure, prokaryotically expressed PicW2 dehydrin protein was purified using chitosan-affinity chromatography and gel filtration, and crystallized using the vapour-diffusion method. The crystal grew in a condition consisting of 0.1 MHEPES pH 8.0, 25%(w/v) PEG 3350 using 4 mg ml−1protein solution at 289 K. X-ray diffraction data were collected from a crystal at 100 K to 2.82 Å resolution. The crystal belonged to space groupC121, with unit-cell parametersa= 121.55,b= 33.26,c= 73.39 Å, α = γ = 90.00, β = 109.01°. The asymmetric unit contained one molecule of the protein, with a corresponding Matthews coefficient of 2.87 Å3 Da−1and a solvent content of 57.20%. Owing to a lack of structures of homologous dehydrin proteins, molecular-replacement trials failed. Data collection for selenium derivatization of PicW2 and crystal structure determination is currently in progress.

The low-cristobalite-type modification of Al0.5Ga0.5PO4 is prepared by annealing the amorphous precipitate of stoichiometric phosphate at 1300 °C. The phase purity of the sample is ascertained by powder X-ray diffraction. The crystal structure is refined by Rietveld refinements of the neutron and X-ray diffraction data of the polycrystalline powder. This compound crystallizes in an orthorhombic lattice with unit cell parameters, a=7.0295(8), b=7.0132(8), and c=6.9187(4) Å, V=341.08(6) Å3, Z=4 (Space group C 2221, No. 20). The crystal structure analysis reveals the random distribution of the Al3+ and Ga3+ having tetrahedral coordination with typical M–O (M=Al3+:Ga3+) bond lengths as 1.74 Å. Similarly, the P5+ have tetrahedral coordination with typical P–O bond lengths 1.52–1.54 Å. The Mo4 and PO4 tetraheda are linked by common corners forming a three-dimensional framework lattice. The details of the crystal structure are presented in this paper.

The crystallization and preliminary X-ray diffraction analysis of the carbohydrate-binding module (CBM) from laminarinase Lic16A of the hyperthermophilic anaerobic bacteriumClostridium thermocellum(ctCBM54) are reported. Recombinant ctCBM54 was prepared using anEscherichia coli/pQE30 overexpression system and was crystallized by the hanging-drop vapour-diffusion method. X-ray diffraction data were collected to 2.1 Å resolution using synchrotron radiation. The crystals belonged to space groupP6322, with unit-cell parametersa=b= 130.15,c= 131.05 Å. The three-dimensional structure of ctCBM54 will provide valuable information about the structure–function relation of the laminarinase Lic16A and will allow the exploitation of this binding module in biotechnological applications.

Thallium Chloride

The mixed valence thallium chloride "Tl2Cl3" is polymorphous. Raman spectra and comparable lattice translations suggest similar structures of both modifications. The crystal structure of the rhombic α-Tl2Cl3 crystallizing in yellow, needle-shaped crystals, has been determined from three-dimensional X-ray diffraction data. The unit cell with cell parameters a= 1474.8(5) pm, b - 2508.7(6) pm and c = 1267.6(2) pm contains 16 formula units distributed on 24 independent atom positions. The compound is a mixed valence thallium(I)-hexachlorothallate(III) Tl3[TlCl6] because three of the nine independent Tl atoms are surrounded octahedrally by CI atoms in distances of 250-265 pm, while the other Tl atoms have seven, eight or nine CI neighbours variing between 306 and 383 pm.β-Tl3[TlCl6] forms pale yellow thin platelets and crystallizes monoclinic with cell parameters a = 2549.4(13) pm, 6 = 1469.9(8) pm, c = 1308.5(12) pm and β = 108.58°.

? novel manganese(II) coordination polymer, catena-(2- methylimidazolium bis(?2-chloro)-aqua-chloromanganese(II)), {(C4H7N2)[MnCl3(H2O)]}n, was synthesized, structurally characterized by FTIR spectroscopy and confirmed by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Thermogravimetric analysis and EPR spectroscopy of the compound were also performed. The colourless crystals of the complex were monoclinic, space group P21/c, with the cell parameters a = 11.298(2) ?, b = 7.2485(14) ?, c = 14.709(5) ?, ? = 128.861(18)?, V = 938.0(5) ?3, Z = 4 and R1 = 0.03. The title compound consisted of onedimensional infinite anionic chains [MnCl3(H2O)]n and isolated 2- methylimidazolium cations. The Mn(II) atom was octahedrally coordinated to four bridging chloride anions [Mn-Cl = 2.5109(6) - 2.5688(7) ?], one terminal chloride anion [Mn-Cl = 2.5068(11) ?] and a H2O molecule [Mn-O = 2.2351(17) ?]. A three-dimensional layer structure was constructed via hydrogen bonds and by weak ?-? stacking interactions. A four-step thermal decomposition occurred in the temperature range 25-900?C under nitrogen.

Two isostructural diarsenates, SrZnAs2O7(strontium zinc diarsenate), (I), and BaCuAs2O7[barium copper(II) diarsenate], (II), have been synthesized under hydrothermal conditions and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The three-dimensional open-framework crystal structure consists of corner-sharingM2O5(M2 = Zn or Cu) square pyramids and diarsenate (As2O7) groups. Each As2O7group shares its five corners with five differentM2O5square pyramids. The resulting framework delimits two types of tunnels aligned parallel to the [010] and [100] directions where the large divalent nine-coordinatedM1 (M1 = Sr or Ba) cations are located. The geometrical characteristics of theM1O9,M2O5and As2O7groups of known isostructural diarsenates, adopting the general formulaM1IIM2IIAs2O7(M1II= Sr, Ba, Pb;M2II= Mg, Co, Cu, Zn) and crystallizing in the space groupP21/n, are presented and discussed.

Fimbrial Adhesins

The attachment of many Gram-negative pathogens to biotic and abiotic surfaces is mediated by fimbrial adhesins, which are assembledviathe classical, alternative and archaic chaperone–usher (CU) pathways. The archaic CU fimbrial adhesins have the widest phylogenetic distribution, yet very little is known about their structure and mechanism of assembly. To elucidate the biogenesis of archaic CU systems, structural analysis of the Csu fimbriae, which are used byAcinetobacter baumanniito form stable biofilms and cause nosocomial infection, was focused on. The major fimbriae subunit CsuA/B complexed with the CsuC chaperone was purified from the periplasm ofEscherichia colicells co-expressing CsuA/B and CsuC, and the complex was crystallized in PEG 3350 solution using the hanging-drop vapour-diffusion method. Selenomethionine-labelled CsuC–CsuA/B complex was purified and crystallized under the same conditions. The crystals diffracted to 2.40 Å resolution and belonged to the hexagonal space groupP6422, with unit-cell parametersa=b= 94.71,c = 187.05 Å, α = β = 90, γ = 120°. Initial phases were derived from a single anomalous diffraction (SAD) experiment using the selenomethionine derivative.

AbstractA new silicate-germanate K2Y[(Si3Ge)O10(OH)] was synthesized hydrothermally in a system Y2O3:GeO2:SiO2 = 1:1:2 (T = 280 °C; P = 90–100 atm.); K2CO3 was added to the solution as a mineralizer. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction experiment was carried out at low temperature (150 K). The unit cell parameters are a = 10.4975(4), b = 6.9567(2), c = 15.4001(6) Å, β = 104.894(4)°; V = 1086.86(7) Å3; space group is P 21/c. A novel complex anion is presented by corrugated (Si,Ge) tetrahedral layers connected by couples of YO6 octahedra into the mixed microporous framework with the channels along b and a axes, the maximal size of cross-section is ~5.6 Å. This structure has similarity with the two minerals: ring silicate gerenite (Ca,Na)2(Y,REE)3Si6O18 · 2H2O and chain silicate chkalovite Na2BeSi2O6. Six-member rings with 1̅ symmetry as in gerenite are distinguished in the new layer. They are mutually perpendicular to each other and connected by additional tetrahedra. Straight crossing chains in chkalovite change to zigzag four-link chains in the new silicate-germanate layer.
