Additive lipid optimization of mPGES1* crystallization in 8.8 MAG at 4 °C with ligand BI2. (A, B) 5 mol % DOPC. (C, D) 0.5 mol % DOPC. (E, F) 1 mol % DOPC. (G, H) 2 mol % DOPC. Precipitant solutions contained 2 mM GSH, 8% (v/v) MPD, 0.4 M KNO3, 0.1 M lithium citrate, and 70 mM ADA pH 7.1. Images were recorded with (B, D, F, H) and without crossed polarizers (A, C, E, G).
