Crystals were grown on XtalTool supports (Jena Bioscience) over a 24 well VDX-plate with 1 ml reservoir. The drop was made up of 1 microlitre 20 mg/ml protein in 10 mM sodium phosphate pH 7.4, 100 mM NaCl, 10 mM beta-mercaptoethanol, 2 mM lactose, 0.25 microlitres of galectin-3C seed crystals in a stabilization solution containing 0.1 M Tris pH 7.5, 33% (w/v) PEG 4000, 0.1 M MgCl2, 0.2 M NaSCN and 0.75 microlitres reservoir solution containing 0.1 M Tris pH 7.5, 34% (w/v) PEG 4000, 0.2 M NaSCN and 8 mM beta-mercapthoethanol. Crystals grew to a size of approximately 10-15 micrometer. |
