The prerequisite for 3D structure determination of macromolecules via X-ray crystallography is well-ordered, diffracting crystals. Here, we report the recombinant production, biophysical/biochemical protein sample characterization, and vapor diffusion sitting drop crystallization protocols for two lipopolysaccharide transport proteins: LptH from Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Pa-LptH) and an inactive LptC mutant (G153R) from Escherichia coli (EcLptCG153R).
通过 X 射线晶体学测定大分子的 3D 结构的前提条件是有序的、可衍射的晶体。在这里,我们报告了两种脂多糖转运蛋白的重组生产、生物物理/生化蛋白质样品表征以及蒸汽扩散坐滴结晶方案:铜绿假单胞菌(Pa-LptH)的 LptH 和大肠杆菌(EcLptCG153R)的无活性 LptC 突变体(G153R)。
