Cloning, expression, purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray diffraction analysis of hypothetical protein SCO4226 from Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2).

ABSTRACT

A non-Pfam hypothetical protein SCO4226 of molecular weight 9 kDa from Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2) was overexpressed in Escherichia coli and the purified recombinant protein was crystallized using the sitting-drop vapour-diffusion method. An X-ray diffraction data set was collected to 2.0 A resolution. The crystal belonged to space group P2(1), with unit-cell parameters a = 29.67, b = 67.00, c = 34.43 A, alpha = gamma = 90.00, beta = 94.26 degrees .
