Purification, crystallization, preliminary X-ray diffraction and molecular-replacement studies of great cormorant (Phalacrocorax carbo) haemoglobin
Haemoglobin is the iron-containing oxygen-transport metalloprotein that is present in the red blood cells of all vertebrates. In recent decades, there has been substantial interest in attempting to understand the structural basis and functional diversity of avian haemoglobins. Towards this end, purification, crystallization, preliminary X-ray diffraction and molecular-replacement studies have b...
متن کاملIn-air hearing of the great cormorant (Phalacrocorax carbo)
Many aquatic birds use sounds extensively for in-air communication. Regardless of this, we know very little about their hearing abilities. The in-air audiogram of a male adult great cormorant (Phalacrocorax carbo) was determined using psychophysical methods (method of constants). Hearing thresholds were derived using pure tones of five different frequencies. The lowest threshold was at 2 kHz: 1...
متن کاملCrystallization and preliminary X-ray diffraction studies of soybean agglutinin.
Soybean agglutinin crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2 with unit cell dimensions a = 118.6 A, b = 88.9 A, c = 165.9 A, beta = 103.0 degrees and one tetramer of 120,000 Mr per asymmetric unit. The crystals are suitable for high-resolution work.
متن کاملProinsulin: Crystallization and preliminary x-ray diffraction studies.
Bovine proinsulin has been crystallized under a variety of conditions at both neutral and acid pH. Microtechniques were employed with sample weights of about 200 mug and volumes of 5-20 mul. The crystalline preparations all differ from each other morphologically.X-ray photographs of one form, tetragonal bipyramids grown at pH 3 with added ammonium sulphate solution, established the space group ...
متن کاملExpression, purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray diffraction studies of phosphoglycerate mutase from Staphylococcus aureus NCTC8325.
Phosphoglycerate mutase (PGM) is a key enzyme in carbohydrate metabolism. It takes part in both glycolysis and gluconeogenesis. PGM from pathogenic Staphylococcus aureus (NCTC8325) was cloned in pQE30 expression vector overexpressed in Escherichia coli M15 (pREP4) cells and purified to homogeneity. The protein was crystallized from two different conditions, (i) 0.1 M HEPES pH 7.5, 20%(w/v) poly...
