It is a three-finger toxin that specifically inhibits blood coagulation factor VIIa and clot formation and that also interacts with hemextin B to form a unique anticoagulant complex. Hemextin A was crystallized by the hanging-drop vapour-diffusion method by equilibration against 0.2 M ammonium acetate, 0.1 M sodium acetate trihydrate pH 4.6 and 30% PEG 4000 as the precipitating agent. The crystals belong to space group P212 121, with unit-cell parameters a = 49.27, b = 49.51, c = 57.87 Å and two molecules in the asymmetric unit. They diffracted to 1.5 Å resolution at beamline X25 at BNL. © International Union of Crystallography 2007. | Source Title: | Acta Crystallographica Section F: Structural Biology and Crystallization Communications | URI: | http://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/100375 | ISSN: | 17443091 | DOI: | 10.1107/S1744309107034239 |
