Journal ArticleDOI

Crystal structure of an integral membrane light-harvesting complex from photosynthetic bacteria

TL;DR: The crystal structure of the light harvesting antenna complex (LH2) from Rhodopseudomonas acidophila strain 10050 showed that the active assembly consists of two concentric cylinders of helical protein subunits which enclose the pigment molecules as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

The structure of β -lactoglobulin and its similarity to plasma retinol-binding protein

TL;DR: A possible binding site for retinol in BLG has been identified by model-building and a role for BLG in vitamin A transport is suggested and specific receptors for the BLG–retinol complex in the intestine of neonate calves are discovered.
Book ChapterDOI

Macromolecular TLS refinement in REFMAC at moderate resolutions.

TL;DR: This chapter discusses the translation, rotation, and screw-rotation parameterization of anisotropic displacement parameters (ADPs), which are usually denoted U, and can be visualized as “thermal ellipsoids.”
Journal ArticleDOI

The structure and thermal motion of the B800-850 LH2 complex from Rps.acidophila at 2.0A resolution and 100K: new structural features and functionally relevant motions.

TL;DR: The calculated energy changes indicate that there may be significant contributions to inter-pigment energy interactions from molecular displacements and these may be of importance to photosynthetic energy transfer.
Journal ArticleDOI

The structure of the saccharide-binding site of concanavalin A.

TL;DR: A complex of concanavalin A with methyl alpha‐D‐mannopyranoside has been crystallized in space group P212121 with a = 123.9 A, b = 129.1 A and c = 67.5 A and the structure has been solved by molecular replacement.
