Examples 2 and 3: different reservoir components

Crystallization 2 and 3: Lectin I (L-1) was concentrated to 10 mg/ml in 0.2 M glycine/HCl buffer pH 2.5 for setups. To obtain L-I crystals in complex with lactose and galactose, the sugar compound was added to the above mentioned buffer to a concentration of 0.2 M. Crystals of L-I complexed with lactose and galactose were obtained by hanging drop vapour diffusion. Droplets of 1 μl protein and 1 μl reservoir solutions were equilibrated against a reservoir of 0.75 ml of the reservoir solution (30-40% saturated ammonium sulfate in 0.1 M glycine/HCl buffer and 0.1 M lactose pH 2.5) to which was added in added 40 μl dioxane. The crystallization conditions for the L-I galactose complex differed only in the addition of 0.2 M galactose rather than lactose to the protein solution.
Cryo-conditions for crystals 2 and 3: The cryoprotectant solution contained 30-35% (v/v) glycerol, 40% saturated ammonium sulphate, 0.1 M lactose/galactose in 0.1 M glycine/HCl buffer at pH 2.5.
