Bacteriophage T4 endonuclease V, which is an excision-repair enzyme specific to pyrimidine dimers within DNA, has been crystallized from polyethylene glycol 4000 solution by a vapour diffusion technique. The unit cell is monoclinic, space group P2(1), with unit cell parameters: a = 41.4 A, b = 40.1 A, c = 37.5 A, beta = 90.01 degrees. The unit cell contains two 16,000 Mr molecules. The crystals diffract X-rays beyond 2.3 A resolution and are suitable for structural analysis at high resolution.
噬菌体T4内切核酸酶V是一种对DNA中的嘧啶二聚体具有特异性的切除修复酶,已通过气相扩散技术从聚乙二醇4000溶液中结晶出来。晶胞为单斜晶系,空间群为P2(1),晶胞参数为:a = 41.4 Å,b = 40.1 Å,c = 37.5 Å,β = 90.01°。晶胞包含两个16,000相对分子质量的分子。这些晶体的X射线衍射分辨率超过2.3 Å,适合进行高分辨率结构分析。
