SINDBIS VIRUS CAPSID, (WILD-TYPE) RESIDUES 106-264, TETRAGONAL CRYSTAL FORM
OverviewOverview
Sindbis virus core protein (SCP) has been isolated from virus and, crystallized. The X-ray crystallographic structure showed that the, amino-terminal 113 residues appeared to be either disordered or truncated, during crystallization and that the carboxy-terminal residues 114 to 264, had a chymotrypsin-like structure. The carboxy-terminal residues 106 to, 264 and 106 to 266 of SCP have now been expressed in Escherichia coli., Most crystal forms of the truncated proteins were isomorphous with those, of the virally extracted protein. There are only small structural, differences between the truncated recombinant protein and the ordered part, of the wild-type virus-extracted protein. Hence, E. coli-expressed SCP can, be used to study proteolytic properties and the contribution of SCP to, ... [(full description)]
