Arf1 is a member of the Ras superfamily and is involved in COPI vesicle formation. Arf1-GDP can interact with dimeric p23. Here, human Arf1 (residues 18-181) was cloned, expressed and purified in Escherichia coli. For crystallization, Arf1-GDP was mixed with dimeric p23 peptide in a 1:5 molar ratio. Crystals were obtained which diffracted to 2.7 Å resolution. The crystals belonged to space group P6₁22, with unit-cell parameters a=b=80.6, c=336.0 Å, α=β=90, γ=120°. The asymmetric unit of the crys ...[more]
