摘要: Dialysis of rhodopsin isolated from bovine rod outer segments resulted in the formation a new two-dimensional crystal form suitable for electron crystallography. The crystals obtained were tubular or single layers and showedp 22121symmetry (a=60.6(±0.8) A,b=86.3(±1.6) A). For first time size order allowed us to take diffraction patterns showing spots resolution about 3.5 A. Images recorded at liquid nitrogen temperature using high voltage field emission microscope. Out large number images 20 crystalline areas selected processed with MRC image processing software. A projection structure 5 was calculated amplitudes phases extracted these images. achieved exceeds all previously structures frog, squid crystals. In this map small differences are observed compared previous maps. Helix seems be even more highly tilted between arc-shaped feature helix peak is present suggesting that 3 prolonging towards 5. These observations agreement latest model three-dimensional arrangement rhodopsin. as well availability data suggest there good possibility collect calculate an improved
