OverviewOverview

The crystal structure of a calcium binding equine lysozyme has been determined at 2.5 A resolution by means of molecular replacement. The energy minimized equine lysozyme as the starting model, was refined with the molecular dynamics program, X-PLOR, and the R factor of the current model was found to be 24% without any water molecules. The conformation of the calcium binding loop is similar to that of alpha-lactalbumin. The profiles of backbone atomic displacements throughout the lysozyme and alpha-lactalbumin superfamilies are comparable as well as their homologous tertiary structures.
