Proteins of the Bacillus stearothermophilus ribosome

Abstract
Crystals of ribosomal protein L6 from Bacillus stearothermophilus suitable for high resolution structural studies have been obtained. Crystals are hexagonal with space group P6122 (or the enantiomorph P6522) and cell dimensions a = b = 72.7 Å, c = 124.9 Å. A search for heavy atom derivatives is in progress.
