title: Crystallographic characterization of a PHO4-DNA complex.
abstract: Crystals have been obtained of the DNA-binding domain of the yeast transcription factor PHO4 in complexes with several synthetic fragments of DNA with appropriate cognate sequences. Crystals suitable for X-ray diffraction studies were produced in the case of a complex of the protein with a 17 base-pair fragment of DNA from a solution in polyethylene glycol and calcium chloride. The crystals have the space group of P4(1)2(1)2 or P4(3)2(1)2 with unit cell dimensions a = b = 56.7 A, c = 447.8 A. The diffraction data at 3 A resolution were collected using synchrotron radiation with a Weissenberg camera for macromolecular crystallography.
