Large single crystals of piratoxin I. a Lys49-PLA2 homologue with low enzymatic activity, have been obtained. The crystals belong to the orthorhombic system space group P2(1)2(1)2(1), and diffract X-rays to a resolution of 2.8 A. Preliminary analysis reveals the presence of two molecules in the crystallographic asymmetric unit.
已获得具有低酶活性的赖氨酸49型磷脂酶A2同系物——海盗毒素I的大单晶。这些晶体属于正交晶系空间群P2(1)2(1)2(1)，并能将X射线衍射到2.8埃的分辨率。初步分析表明，晶体学不对称单元中存在两个分子。
