==Overview==
==Overview==
A rationally designed, genetically engineered, monomeric form of the Cro, protein from bacteriophage lambda has been crystallized and its structure, determined by isomorphous replacement and refined to a resolution of 1.54, A. The structure confirms the rationale of the design but, at the same, time, reveals 1-2 A shifts throughout the monomer structure relative to, the previously determined structure of the dimeric wild-type protein., These changes include a 1.6 A main-chain shift in part of the beta-sheet, region of the molecule relative to the alpha-helical region and a 1.1 A, shift of a buried phenylalanine within the core as well as a correlated, 2.2 A shift in a solvent-exposed beta-hairpin. The conformational, adjustments appear to reflect an inherent flexibility of the protein that, is associated with its DNA-binding function.
