THE 2-ANGSTROMS RESOLUTION STRUCTURE OF A THERMOSTABLE RIBONUCLEASE A CHEMICALLY CROSS-LINKED BETWEEN LYSINE RESIDUES 7 AND 41

Overview

The crystal structure of Lys-7-(dinitrophenylene)-Lys-41-cross-linked, ribonuclease A has been determined by molecular replacement and refined by, restrained least-squares methods to an R factor of 0.18 at 2.0-A, resolution. Diffraction intensity data were collected by using a, conventional diffractometer and an x-ray area detector. Comparison of the, thermostable cross-linked protein and the native enzyme shows them to be, structurally similar, with a rms difference in backbone and side-chain, atoms of 0.52 and 1.34 A, respectively. Native and modified proteins, additionally show 35 common bound solvent sites and similar overall, temperature factor behavior, despite localized differences resulting from, cross-link introduction, altered crystal pH, or lattice interactions with, neighboring molecules. These results are discussed in the context of, proposals on the origins of thermostability in the cross-linked enzyme.
