AI Article Synopsis
- A recombinant form of prolyl tripeptidyl aminopeptidase from Porphyromonas gingivalis was successfully crystallized using the hanging-drop vapour-diffusion method with potassium sodium tartrate as a precipitant.
- The crystals are categorized in the hexagonal space group P6(3)22, with specific unit-cell dimensions of a = b = 149.4 Å and c = 159.7 Å.
- Diffraction data was obtained at a resolution of 2.1 Å using synchrotron radiation from the BL5 station at the Photon Factory, indicating the likely presence of one dimer subunit in the asymmetric unit.
Article Abstract
A recombinant form of prolyl tripeptidyl aminopeptidase from Porphyromonas gingivalis has been crystallized by the hanging-drop vapour-diffusion method using potassium sodium tartrate as a precipitating agent. The crystals belong to the hexagonal space group P6(3)22, with unit-cell parameters a = b = 149.4, c = 159.7 A. The crystals are most likely to contain one subunit of a dimer in the asymmetric unit, with a VM value of 3.14 A3 Da(-1). Diffraction data were collected to 2.1 A resolution using synchrotron radiation at the BL5 station of the Photon Factory.
