Protein flexibility and adaptability seen in 25 crystal forms of T4 lysozyme.

Journal of molecular biology - 21 Jul 1995

Zhang X J, Wozniak J A, Matthews B W

Abstract excerpt

The structures of various mutants of T4 lysozyme have been determined in 25 non-isomorphous crystal forms. This provides an unusually diverse data base to compare the structures and dynamics of a closely related set of proteins in different crystal packing environments. In general, the more tightly packed crystals diffract better than those that are highly hydrated although the wild-type crystal form is an...
