Overview

Lipocalin-type prostaglandin D synthase is the key enzyme for the, production of prostaglandin D(2), a potent endogenous somnogen, in the, brain. We cloned, produced, and crystallized the native enzyme and, selenomethionyl Cys(65)Ala mutants of the recombinant mouse protein by the, hanging drop vapor-diffusion method with both malonate and citrate as, precipitants. The native crystals obtained with malonate belong to, orthorhombic space group P2(1)2(1)2(1) with lattice constants a = 46.2, b, = 66.8, and c = 105.3 A. The selenomethionyl crystals obtained with, citrate belong to orthorhombic space group C222(1) with lattice constants, a = 45.5, b = 66.8, and c = 104.5 A. The native crystals diffracted beyond, 2.1 A resolution.
