Research Abstract |
The recombinant succinate semialdehyde dehydrogenase with His-tag was purified in one chromatographic step by using Ni-NTA resin. The structures of GABA aminotransferase have determined at acidic and neutral pH. Crystals of GabR protein was obtained by the hanging-drop vapor-diffusion method. The X-ray diffraction data set for the native crystal was collected to 2.2Å resolution. The phase of native GabR was solved by the multiple isomorphous replacement method, using Hg derivative data sets. Now the structure of native GabR is under construction.
