Abstract:
Single crystals of glycosylated recombinant human renin have been obtained using the hanging-drop vapor diffusion method with polyethylene glycol and sodium chloride as coprecipitants. The crystals belong to the cubic space group P2(1)3 with a = 143.0 A and contain two molecules of renin in the asymmetric unit. A self-rotation function study using 5.5 A data shows the orientation of a non-crystallographic 2-fold axis relating these two monomers.
