ABSTRACT
LZ-8 protein, isolated from a well known Chinese traditional medicinal fungus Ganoderma lucidum, is the first member of fungal immunomodulatory protein, members of which have been isolated from a variety of medicinal and edible mushrooms in the last two decades. The protein plays a multifunctional and important role in modulating immune system. In this report, in order to get LZ-8 protein crystals, the LZ-8 gene was expressed and purified by affinity chromatography, gel filtration chromatography and anion exchange chromatography subsequently. The protein was then crystallized using the hanging-drop vapour-diffusion method. The LZ-8 crystals were obtained and the phase information was calculated by X-ray diffraction. The resolution of LZ-8 crystals is 3.2A. This study will provide an insight into the structure of fungal immunomodulatory proteins.
