Designing better diffracting crystals of biotin carboxyl carrier protein fromPyrococcus horikoshiiby a mutation based on the crystal-packing propensity of amino acids

Abstract
An alternative rational approach to improve protein crystals by using single-site mutation of surface residues is proposed based on the results of a statistical analysis using a compiled data set of 918 independent crystal structures, thereby reflecting not only the entropic effect but also other effects upon protein crystallization. This analysis reveals a clear difference in the crystal-packing propensity of amino acids depending on the...
