Crystallization and preliminary X-ray diffraction analysis of FKBP12 complexed with a novel neurotrophic ligand

Protein Pept Lett. 2002 Oct;9(5):459-63. doi: 10.2174/0929866023408517.

Abstract

A novel neurotrophic ligand, (3R)-4-(p-Toluenesulfonyl)-1,4-thiazane-3-carboxylic acid-L-Leucine ethyl ester, has been complexed with FKBP12 and crystallized using the hanging-drop vapor-diffusion method. Crystals belong to P2(1) space group, with unit cell parameters a=41.2, b=29.6, c=41.5 A, beta=114.0 degrees. The crystals diffract to 1.8 A resolution limit.
