    Notes: Crystals of racemic rubredoxin, prepared by independent chemical synthesis of the two enantiomers, have been grown and characterized. The unit cell contains two molecules, one of each enantiomer. Examination of the intensity distribution in the diffraction pattern revealed that the crystals are centrosymmetric. This was confirmed by solution of thestructure to 2 Å resolution via molecular replacement methods. The electron density maps are of very high quality due to the fact that the phaseof each reflection must be exactly 0° or exactly 180°. These results demonstrate the feasibility of using synthetic racemic proteins to yield centrosymmetric protein crystals with electron density maps that have very low phase error and model bias. © 1993 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: A peptide corresponding to the three zinc finger domains of the human transcription factor Sp1 has been expressed and found to bind a consensus Sp1 binding site with the sequence 5′-GGGGCGGGG-3′. Examination of the amino acid distributions within a large zinc finger sequence data base and chemical arguments suggested that a particular Arg to Gln sequence change might convert binding specificity to 5′-GGGGCAGGG-3′. Experimental tests of this hypothesis revealed that such a change could be induced only when two other sequence changes, deduced from examination of sequence correlations, were made as well. These results provide the most direct information to date about how zinc finger proteins might recognize adenine-containing binding sites and bear on the existence and nature of any code between zinc finger protein and binding site sequences.

    Notes: The immunogenicity of a folded, all D-amino acid protein- rubredoxin, has been compared with that for the corresponding L-protein enantiomer. Following multiple administrations with alum adjuvant, the L-protein induced a strong, specific lgG antibody response, whereas the D-protein did not. This relative lack of responsiveness to the D-protein cannot be attributed to rapid excretion, since it is retained at least 4 times longer than the natural L-protein. These observations provide the first direct evidence that a folded D-amino acid protein has low immunogenicity and is long lived in vivo. Proteins with such properties may be useful as molecular platforms in a variety of chemical and pharmaco-logical applications. © 1993 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
