OverviewOverview

Three crystal forms of Naja naja naja phospholipase A2 were discovered, through random crystallization screening, including two heretofore, uncharacterized forms. The crystallization conditions for both of these, novel crystal forms are Ca(2+)-free whereas previously reported conditions, include Ca2+. One of the new crystal forms has a cubic lattice in the, space group P2(1)3 (a = b = c = 69.24 A), the other has an orthorhombic, lattice in the space group P2(1)2(1)2(1) (a = 67.22 A, b = 73.48 A, c =, 87.52 A) and a previously characterized crystal belong to the tetragonal, space group P4(3)2(1)2 (a = b = 88.6 A, c = 107.4 A). The structure from, the cubic crystal form has been determined to 1.8 A and refined to an, R-factor of 17% while the structure from the orthorhombic form has been, ... [(full description)]
