Preliminary X-ray crystallographic and physico-chemical investigations of human ceruloplasmin. 1977

K A Moshkov, and M M Shavlovski, and V N Zaitzev, and S A Neifakh

Single crystals of the plasma protein ceruloplasmin (CP) and its two modified forms: neuraminidase-treated CP (asialoCP) and NaN3-inhibited CP (NaN3-CP) suitable for X-ray studies have been grown. The native CP crystallizes as described previously by Magdoff-Fairchield et al. (1969) in the tetragonal space group 14 (a = b = 268.2 A, c = 129.1 A) with two protein molecules in the asymmetric part of a unit cell. AsialoCP crystals belong to the trigonal space group P 3(1)21 or P321 (a = b = 215.0 A, c = 84.5 A) and have one protein molecule in the asymmetric part of a unit cell. NaN3-CP crystals are isomorphous to crystals of native CP. Despite some differences in electrophoretic mobility and optical properties, the conformations of the native CP molecule and its modified forms are similar, as can be concluded from a study of ORD and CD spectra.

D010920 Placenta A highly vascularized mammalian fetal-maternal organ and major site of transport of oxygen, nutrients, and fetal waste products. It includes a fetal portion (CHORIONIC VILLI) derived from TROPHOBLASTS and a maternal portion (DECIDUA) derived from the uterine ENDOMETRIUM. The placenta produces an array of steroid, protein and peptide hormones (PLACENTAL HORMONES). Placentoma, Normal,Placentome,Placentas,Placentomes

D014961 X-Ray Diffraction The scattering of x-rays by matter, especially crystals, with accompanying variation in intensity due to interference effects. Analysis of the crystal structure of materials is performed by passing x-rays through them and registering the diffraction image of the rays (CRYSTALLOGRAPHY, X-RAY).
