PACSIN-family proteins are cytoplasmic proteins that have vesicle-transport, membrane-dynamics, actin-reorganization and microtubule activities. Here, the N-terminal F-BAR domain of mouse PACSIN 3, which contains 341 amino acids, was successfully cloned, purified and crystallized. The crystal of PACSIN 3 (1–341) diffracted to 2.6 Å resolution and belonged to space group P21, with unit-cell parameters a = 46.9, b = 54.7, c = 193.7 Å, α = 90, β = 96.9, γ = 90°. These data should provide further information on PACSIN-family protein structures.
