Resumen o descripción

"11S globulin is one of the major seed storage proteins in amaranth. Recombinant protein was produced as up to similar to 80% of the total bacterial protein using Escherichia coli Rosetta-gami (DE3) containing pET21d with amaranth 11S globulin cDNA. The best expression condition was at 302 K for 20 h using LB medium containing 0.5 M NaCl. The recombinant protein was easily separated from most of the Escherichia coli proteins by precipitation with 0-40% ammonium sulfate solution. It formed aggregates at low temperature and at low salt concentrations. This behaviour may imply that it has a more hydrophobic nature than other 11S seed globulins. The crystals diffracted to 6 A resolution and belonged to space group P6(3), with unit-cell parameters a = b = 97.6, c = 74.8 A, gamma = 120.0 degrees. One subunit of a trimer was estimated to be present in the asymmetric unit, assuming a V (sol) of 41%. To obtain the complete structure solution, experiments to improve crystallization and flash-cooling conditions are in progress."
