High-resolution crystal structures of trimeric and rod phycocyanin.
The phycobilisome light-harvesting antenna in cyanobacteria and red algae is assembled from two substructures: a central core composed of allophycocyanin surrounded by rods that always contain phycocyanin (PC). Unpigmented proteins called linkers are also found within the rods and core. We present here two new structures of PC from the thermophilic cyanobacterium Thermosynechococcus vulcanus. W...
متن کاملHigh-Resolution Crystal Structures of Protein Helices Reconciled with Three-Centered Hydrogen Bonds and Multipole Electrostatics
Theoretical and experimental evidence for non-linear hydrogen bonds in protein helices is ubiquitous. In particular, amide three-centered hydrogen bonds are common features of helices in high-resolution crystal structures of proteins. These high-resolution structures (1.0 to 1.5 Å nominal crystallographic resolution) position backbone atoms without significant bias from modeling constraints and...
متن کاملAnalysis of temperature factor distribution in high-resolution protein structures.
The temperature factors obtained from X-ray refinement of proteins at high resolution show large variations from one structure to another. However, the B-values expressed in units of standard deviation about their mean value (B'-factor) at the C alpha atoms show remarkably characteristic frequency distribution. In all of the 110 proteins examined in this study, the frequency distribution exhibi...
متن کاملStructures of Furanosides: Density Functional Calculations and High-Resolution X-ray and Neutron Diffraction Crystal Structures
Highly accurate and precise crystal structures of methyl R-D-arabinofuranoside, methyl â-D-ribofuranoside, methyl R-D-lyxofuranoside, and methyl R-D-xylofuranoside have been determined at 100 K by X-ray crystallography. The structures of methyl R-D-arabinofuranoside and methyl â-D-ribofuranoside have also been determined at 15 K by neutron diffraction. Equilibrium (re) geometries of the same co...
متن کاملTroublesome Crystal Structures: Prevention, Detection, and Resolution
A large number of incorrect crystal structures is being published today. These structures are proving to be a particular problem to those of us who are interested in comparing structural moieties found in the databases in order to develop structure-property relationships. Problems can reside in the input data, e.g., wrong unit cell or low quality intensity data, or in the structural model, e.g....
