Crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis of osteoclast-stimulating factor.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Osteoclast-stimulating factor increases osteoclast formation and bone resorption through a cellular signal transduction cascade, possibly by its interaction with c-Src or related family members. Crystals of human osteoclast-stimulating factor were obtained by the hanging-drop vapour-diffusion method using ammonium sulfate as a precipitant. The crystals are primitive orthorhombic and belong to P222 or a related space group, with unit-cell parameters a = 38.1, b = 54.9, c = 64.7 A.

Purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray analysis of IMP-18, a class B carbapenemase from Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
Class B β-lactamases are known as metallo-β-lactamases (MBLs) and they hydrolyze most β-lactams, including carbapenems. IMP-18, an MBL cloned from Pseudomonas aeruginosa, was overexpressed, purified and crystallized by vapour diffusion for X-ray crystallographic analysis. Preliminary X-ray analysis showed that the crystal diffracted to 2.4 Å resolution and belonged to the tetragonal space group...

متن کاملProduction, purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray analysis of adeno-associated virus serotype 8.
Adeno-associated viruses (AAVs) are actively being developed for clinical gene-therapy applications and the efficiencies of the vectors could be significantly improved by a detailed understanding of their viral capsid structures and the structural determinants of their tissue-transduction interactions. AAV8 is approximately 80% identical to the more widely studied AAV2, but its liver-transducti...
