A mannose-specific lectin from Calystegia sepium has been crystallized by the hanging-drop vapour-diffusion method using ammonium sulfate as precipitant. The needle-shaped crystals are orthorhombic, space group C222(1) with cell dimensions a = 55.2(1), b = 55.9 (1), c = 196.1 (1) A. Fresh crystals diffract to 1.9 A resolution on a synchrotron radiation source. The asymmetric unit contains a dimer of two identical 16 kDa subunits with a packing density of 2.36 A(3) Da(-1). Intensity data have been observed beyond 2.0 A, but reasonable statistics restricted the usable range to 2.0 A.
采用悬滴气相扩散法,以硫酸铵作为沉淀剂,使来自打碗花(Calystegia sepium)的一种甘露糖特异性凝集素结晶。针状晶体为正交晶系,空间群为C222(1),晶胞参数a = 55.2(1) Å,b = 55.9 (1) Å,c = 196.1 (1) Å。新鲜晶体在同步辐射源上的衍射分辨率可达1.9 Å。不对称单元包含由两个相同的16 kDa亚基组成的二聚体,堆积密度为2.36 ų Da⁻¹。已在2.0 Å以外观察到强度数据,但合理的统计将可用范围限制在2.0 Å。
