It's more a Pacman ghost, innit?? Sent from Nine<http://www.9folders.com/> ________________________________ From: Deborah Harrus <deborah.har...@oulu.fi> Sent: Friday, 2 November 2018 21:25 To: CCP4BB@JISCMAIL.AC.UK Subject: [ccp4bb] help needed with a rabbit-head-shaped blob
Dear all, I came across an unidentified rabbit-head-shaped blob and would need help for its identification. There are 2 molecules of protein per asymmetric unit but there are some differences between the two chains. The blob is located in between the two chains, and is surrounded by residues Asp, Pro, and Val. The protein, a glycosyltransferase, was expressed in E. coli BL21(DE3) and purified on Ni-NTA followed by gel filtration. The purification buffer included Sodium phosphate and NaCl. The crystallization condition had Bis-Tris, ammonium acetate and PEG 20000, and glycerol was used as cryoprotectant. From the size, bis-tris was the most probable, but I have tried to fit it and it is not convincing. The structure is 1.6 angstrom resolution and this is the only thing left to be done, it's driving me crazy! Pictures attached show the face, bottom and top of the head. 2Fo-Fc is at 1.1 sigma, Fo-Fc at 3 sigmas. Many thanks in advance for your suggestions!
