Crystallization and preliminary crystallographic study of human lithostathine.
Crystals of human lithostathine, a pancreatic glycoprotein which inhibits the growth and nucleation of calcium carbonate crystals, were grown using PEG 4000 as the precipitating agent. The crystals belong to the hexagonal space group P6(1) (or its enantiomorph P6(5)) and diffract to 1.55 A resolution. There is one molecule in the asymmetric unit and the crystals have 39% solvent.
