Abstract: | The porin from Paracoccus denitrificans ATCC 13543 was purified and crystallized. Two crystal forms were obtained from porin solutions with β-d-octylglucopyra-noside as detergent. Crystals of form I belong to the monoclinic spacegroup C2 with unit cell dimensions a = 112.2 Å, b = 193.8 Å, c = 100.5 Å and β = 129.2°. There is 1 trimer per asymmetric unit. Crystals of form II are triclinic with α = 89.7 Å, b = 98.8 Å, c = 112.5 Å, b = 112.5Å, β = 101.8°, γ = 106.7° (2 trimers per asymmetric unit). Both crystal forms diffract to 3 Å. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc. |
