Crystallization and preliminary X-ray diffraction studies of a rice cysteine proteinase inhibitor, Oryzacystatin-I.

Abstract
Oryzacystatin-I from rice seeds was overexpressed in Escherichia coli, purified, and crystallized by the sitting-drop vapor diffusion method. Crystals obtained with 2-methyl-2, 4-pentanediol as a precipitant exhibited space group I4122, with unit cell parameters of a= b = 100.0 ¨, c = 54.2 ¨, and diffracted up to 2.8 ¨ resolution at 100 K. The crystals have one molecule per asymmetric unit.
