An extracellular domain of the EsaA membrane component of the type VIIb secretion system: expression, purification and crystallization

The biophysical characterization and crystallization of an extracellular domain of the EsaA membrane component of the type VIIb secretion system is described.

SpaB, an atypically adhesive basal pilin from the lactobacillar SpaCBA pilus: crystallization and X-ray diffraction analysis

A three-pronged approach to obtaining X-ray diffraction-quality crystals of the basal SpaB pilin subunit of the lactobacillar SpaCBA pilus is reported. Hexagonal crystals of lysine-methylated SpaB protein were produced and diffracted to a resolution of 2.4 Å.

Crystal structure of the MIF4G domain of the Trypanosoma cruzi translation initiation factor EIF4G5

The crystal structure of the MIF4G domain of Trypanosoma cruzi EIF4G5 reveals differences that may account for the specific interaction mechanisms of MIF4G.

Crystal structure of the Wheat dwarf virus Rep domain

The solution of the crystal structure of the Rep domain of Wheat dwarf virus can help inform the development of protein–ssDNA binding tags.

Intermediate-resolution crystal structure of the human adenovirus B serotype 3 fibre knob in complex with the EC2-EC3 fragment of desmoglein 2

The crystal structure of the complex between the trimeric human adenovirus B serotype 3 fibre knob and desmoglein fragments composed of cadherin domains EC2 and EC3 containing three calcium-binding sites has been determined at 4.5 Å resolution and confirmed by the anomalous signal from terbium ions, which replaced the calcium ions.
