For the first time the influence of the chirality of the gel fibers in protein crystallogenesis has been studied. Enantiomeric hydrogels 1 and 2 were tested with model proteins lysozyme and glucose isomerase and a formamidase extracted from B. cereus. Crystallization behaviour and crystal quality of these proteins in both hydrogels are presented and compared.
首次研究了凝胶纤维的手性在蛋白质结晶过程中的影响。用模型蛋白溶菌酶、葡萄糖异构酶以及从蜡状芽孢杆菌中提取的甲酰胺酶对映体水凝胶1和2进行了测试。展示并比较了这些蛋白质在两种水凝胶中的结晶行为和晶体质量。
