Crystallization of human oxyhaemoglobin from poly(ethylene glycol) solutions.
Crystals of human oxyhaemoglobin were obtained from poly(ethylene glycol) solutions. Spectroscopic and spectrophotometric measurements on the solutions during crystallization and on the dissolved crystals indicate that the method yields stable crystals of oxyhaemoglobin. Preliminary X-ray studies showed that the crystals obtained are isomorphous with those of deoxyhaemoglobin obtained from poly(ethylene glycol) solutions [Ward, Wishner, Lattman & Love (1975) J. Mol. Biol. 98, 161-177].
