Crystallization and preliminary analysis of an 18,000 Mr fragment of duck ovotransferrin.
Crystals of an 18,000 Mr iron-binding fragment of duck ovotransferrin, corresponding to domain II of the N-terminal lobe, have been obtained. The crystals belong to the trigonal system, P31 (or enantiomer) with a = b = 41.3(1) A, c = 81.2(2) A (1 A = 0.1 nm) and one molecule per asymmetric unit assuming a solvent content of 40% by volume. The crystals are stable at +4 degrees C and diffract to at least 2.3 A resolution.
