Fibrillarin plays a central role in ribosome biogenesis as a ribosomal RNA-processing protein. A Methanococcus jannaschii homolog of fibrillarin has been overexpressed, purified and crystallized. Crystals belong to the C2 space group with unit-cell parameters a = 121.4, b = 43.2, c = 55.3 Å, β = 96.9°. Under flash-frozen conditions and using synchrotron radiation, the crystals diffract to 1.8 Å resolution. For structural determination, a selenomethionine derivative of the protein has also been crystallized.
Keywords: Fibrillarin.
