Crystallization and preliminary diffraction studies of 5 S rRNA from the thermophilic bacterium Thermus flavus.
Crystals of purified 5 S rRNA from Thermus flavus have been obtained. The crystals diffract up to 8 A resolution, using synchrotron radiation, and have the monoclinic space-group C2. The unit cell has the dimensions a = 190 A, b = 110 A, c = 138 A and beta = 117 degrees. The cell volume suggests the presence of four 5 S rRNA molecules per asymmetric unit.
