The cyclic AMP receptor protein (CRP) from Escherichia coli regulates the expression of a large number of genes. In this work, CRP has been overexpressed, purified and digested by subtilisin and chymotrypsin. The fragments S-CRP (digested by subtilisin) and CH-CRP (digested by chymotrypsin) have been purified and crystallized. Crystals of S-CRP diffracted to 2.0 A resolution and belonged to space group P2(1), with unit-cell parameters a = 59.7, b = 75.1, c = 128.3 A, beta = 91.5 degrees . Crystals of CH-CRP diffracted to 2.8 A resolution and belonged to space group P222, with unit-cell parameters a = 45.8, b = 60.9, c = 205.6 A.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008024 Ligands A molecule that binds to another molecule, used especially to refer to a small molecule that binds specifically to a larger molecule, e.g., an antigen binding to an antibody, a hormone or neurotransmitter binding to a receptor, or a substrate or allosteric effector binding to an enzyme. Ligands are also molecules that donate or accept a pair of electrons to form a coordinate covalent bond with the central metal atom of a coordination complex. (From Dorland, 27th ed) Ligand
D008969 Molecular Sequence Data Descriptions of specific amino acid, carbohydrate, or nucleotide sequences which have appeared in the published literature and/or are deposited in and maintained by databanks such as GENBANK, European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL), National Biomedical Research Foundation (NBRF), or other sequence repositories. Sequence Data, Molecular,Molecular Sequencing Data,Data, Molecular Sequence,Data, Molecular Sequencing,Sequencing Data, Molecular
D002373 Cyclic AMP Receptor Protein A transcriptional regulator in prokaryotes which, when activated by binding cyclic AMP, acts at several promoters. Cyclic AMP receptor protein was originally identified as a catabolite gene activator protein. It was subsequently shown to regulate several functions unrelated to catabolism, and to be both a negative and a positive regulator of transcription. Cell surface cyclic AMP receptors are not included (CYCLIC AMP RECEPTORS), nor are the eukaryotic cytoplasmic cyclic AMP receptor proteins, which are the regulatory subunits of CYCLIC AMP-DEPENDENT PROTEIN KINASES.
