Abstract: | The lectin from Erythrina corallodendron, specific for N-acetyllactosamine, crystallizes in the hexagonal space group P6(1) (P6(5)) with unit cell dimensions a = b = 136.3 A, c = 83.2 A and one dimer of Mr 60,000 in the asymmetric unit. The crystals are suitable for high-resolution work. |
