Crystal Structure Analysis of Hexagonal Lysozyme

Overview

The three-dimensional structure of hen egg-white lysozyme (HEWL) in a, hexagonal crystal form has been determined and refined to 1.46 A, resolution. This hexagonal crystal form crystallizes from a saturated, sodium nitrate solution at pH 8.4. The crystals belong to space group, P6(1)22, with unit-cell parameters a = b = 85.64, c = 67.93 A. A total of, 165 water molecules, 16 nitrate ions and five sodium ions were located in, the electron-density map. The hexagonal crystal form exhibits a higher, solvent content and a higher degree of disorder than other crystal forms, of lysozyme. The flexibility of the protein depends on the crystal, packing, although some residue ranges are flexible in all native HEWL, crystal forms.
