Crystal structure of bence jones protein Rhe (3 Å) and its unique domain-domain association

The crystal structure of protein Rhe, a lambda type VL dimer, has been determined at a resolution of 3 Å by the method of multiple isomorphous replacement supplemented with anomalous scattering data. A crystallographic sequence was assigned from an interpretation of the electron density map in an optical comparator and is compared with a chemically determined partial amino acid sequence. The monomeric unit of Rhe, as determined...
