| pubmed-article:2914886 | pubmed:abstractText | Human plasminogen kringle 4 has been crystallized in two different crystal forms: monoclinic, a = 32.78(3), b = 49.17(2), c = 46.27(3) A, beta = 100.67 degrees, space group P2(1), four molecules/unit cell, two molecules/asymmetric unit; orthorhombic, a = 32.09(7), b = 49.14(6), c = 49.47(9) A, space group P2(1)2(1)2, four molecules/unit cell. Both crystal forms have a large protein fraction (66% for monoclinic and 62% for orthorhombic) and diffract x-rays to 2.0 A resolution. A self-rotation function has been calculated with monoclinic data indicating a non-crystallographic 2-fold rotation approximately parallel to a* (peak height of 14.3 x sigma). Cross-rotation function calculations are in progress utilizing the coordinates of the conserved structure of kringle 1 of prothrombin and plasminogen kringle 4. | lld:pubmed |
