GRAMICIDIN D FROM BACILLUS BREVIS (ETHANOL SOLVATE)

Overview

Gramicidin D (gD) is a naturally occurring ionophoric antibiotic that, forms membrane channels specific for monovalent cations. The crystal, structure of the RbCl complex of gD has been determined at 1.14 A, resolution from low-temperature (100 K) synchrotron-radiation data with a, final R of 16%. The structure was refined with anisotropic temperature, factors for all non-H atoms and with partial occupancies for many of them., The asymmetric unit in the crystal contains four crystallographically, independent molecules that form two right-handed antiparallel, double-stranded dimers. There are seven distinct rubidium-binding sites in, each dimeric channel. The occupancy factors of Rb cations are between 0.11, and 0.35 and the total ion contents of the two crystallographically, independent ... [(full description)]
