Crystallization (Commentary)

Crystallization (Comment) Organism
hanging-drop vapor diffusion method at 293 K. The crystals have a stick-like shape, and belong to the space group P4(1)2(1)2, with unit cell dimensions of a = b = 91.5 A and c = 164.0 A. Crystal structure is determined at 2.25 A resolution Thermus thermophilus
to 2.25 A resolution. Structure reveals the remarkably flexible structural features in the tRNA-binding cleft, which may be responsible for the primary tRNA interaction. The charged residues occupying the intermediate positions in the cleft may lead the tRNA to the active site for catalysis. The tRNA probably makes the melting base pairs move into the cleft, and a conformational change of the substrate tRNA may be necessary to facilitate access to the active site aspartate residue, deep within the cleft Thermus thermophilus HB8
