X-ray diffraction analysis of crystals of bovine platelet factor 4.

Abstract:

:Bovine platelet factor 4 has been crystallized by "vapor dilution" in space group P2(1)2(1)2(1), a = 63.7 A, b = 66.7 A, c = 80.5 A, with four molecules, each 9505 Mr, in the asymmetric unit. The crystals diffract X-rays to better than 2.8 A resolution.

  • The structure of Escherichia coli cytosine deaminase.

    abstract::Cytosine deaminase (CD) catalyzes the deamination of cytosine, producing uracil. This enzyme is present in prokaryotes and fungi (but not multicellular eukaryotes) and is an important member of the pyrimidine salvage pathway in those organisms. The same enzyme also catalyzes the conversion of 5-fluorocytosine to 5-flu...
