Reversible lattice repacking illustrates the temperature dependence of macromolecular interactions
Abstract
Flash-freezing, which has become routine in macromolecular X-ray crystallography, causes the crystal to contract substantially. In the case of Escherichia coli beta-galactosidase the changes are reversible and are shown to be due to lattice repacking. On cooling, the area of the protein surface involved in lattice contacts increases by 50 %. There are substantial alterations in intermolecular contacts, these changes being dominated by the long,...
