Protocol for improving diffraction quality of leucyl-tRNA synthetase 1 with methylation and post-crystallization soaking and cooling in cryoprotectants

Summary: Leucyl-tRNA synthetase 1 (LARS1) synthesizes Leu-tRNALeu for protein synthesis and plays an important role in mTORC1 activation by sensing intracellular leucine concentrations. Here, we describe a protocol for the purification, reductive methylation, binding affinity measurement by microsca...
