Crystallization and preliminary crystallographic data of the major albumin from Psophocarpus tetragonolobus (L.) DC.
The major seed albumin from Psophocarpus tetragonolobus (L.) DC, winged bean albumin 1, has been crystallized from ethanol as rhombic needles in a form suitable for high resolution x-ray crystallographic studies. The space group is I4(1)22 with cell parameters a = b = 95.6 A, and c = 86.0 A. Amino acid sequence homology between winged bean albumin 1 and legume 7 S globulins suggests that the former may be related to a structural domain of the 7 S globulins.
