Here are photos of a few crystals we've drawn. All are standard setups, some with and some without molecular surfaces. The most popular are in stock here.
PDB 1JX4, W. Yang The polymerase enzyme is rendered as cartoon arrows with a molecular surface, so it's sharply distinguished from the wireframe DNA.
PDB 1MFR, E. Theil The iron-sequestering ferritin protein, drawn as a smoothed spline backbone. This molecule is remarkable for its cubical symmetry. Ferritin crystals are available at bathsheba.com.
PDB 1A0Z, A. Arnone A historic and beautiful protein, hemoglobin is rendered here with ribbons for the peptide chains, wireframe for the four hemes, and a sphere accenting each iron atom. Hemoglobin crystals are also available.
PDB 1AU7, A. K. Aggarwal This 19-base stretch of DNA is drawn as wireframe with dotted hydrogen bonds. A translucent molecular surface emphasizes the overall shape of the molecule, the major and minor grooves, without hiding the internal detail. DNA crystals and larger Mega DNA are in stock.
PDB supplied by Albion Baucom This very large structure shows the icosahedral structure of a virus capsid. In the 80mm cube there is just enough room to resolve the backbone fully. |
