Abstract: | Crystals of the 14-kDa group 5 allergen fromDermatophagoides pteronyssinus(Der p 5) have been obtained at low pH and diffract to 3-Å resolution using a conventional x-ray source. The crystals belong to tetragonal space group P41212 or P43212, with unit cell parametersa=b= 114 Å andc= 234 Å. A self-rotation search revealed a 432 point symmetry and thus suggested 96 molecules in one unit cell, hence 12 monomers in each asymmetric unit. |
