The sorbitol operon regulator (SorC) regulates the metabolism of L-sorbose in Klebsiella pneumonia. SorC was overexpressed in Escherichia coli and purified, and crystals were obtained of a tetrameric form. A single crystal showed X-ray diffraction to 3.20 A. The crystal belongs to space group P2(1)2(1)2(1), with unit-cell parameters a = 91.6, b = 113.3, c = 184.1 A. Analysis of the molecular-replacement solution indicates the presence of four SorC molecules in the asymmetric unit.
山梨醇操纵子调节因子(SorC)调节肺炎克雷伯菌中L-山梨糖的代谢。SorC在大肠杆菌中过表达并纯化,获得了四聚体形式的晶体。一颗单晶的X射线衍射分辨率达到3.20 Å。该晶体属于空间群P2(1)2(1)2(1),晶胞参数为a = 91.6、b = 113.3、c = 184.1 Å。分子置换解的分析表明不对称单元中存在四个SorC分子。
