Abstract:The ternary complex of procarboxypeptidase A, chymotrypsinogen C and proproteinase E from bovine pancreas has been crystallized using the sitting drop vapour diffusion method. The success in obtaining crystals has been found to be critically dependent on the prevention of autolysis of the complex. In preliminary stages, crystals twinned by merohedry were obtained from a solution containing MgCl2 and polyethylenglycol 400 as precipitating agent. Later on, untwinned ones could be grown employing CaCl 2 instead o… Show more
