Production, crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic studies of the bacteriophage phi 12 packaging motor.
The hexameric ATPase P4 from bacteriophage phi 12 is responsible for packaging single-stranded genomic precursors into the viral procapsid. P4 was overexpressed in Escherichia coli and purified. Crystals of native and selenomethionine-derivatized P4 have been obtained that belong to space group I222...
