Abstract excerpt

The three-dimensional structure of a truncated mutant of bovine adrenodoxin has been resolved at 1.85 A resolution by MAD. The protein consists of a large core region and a more flexible hairpin loop bearing residues which have been previously described as being involved in redox partner recognit...
