Dear All,
One of the most efficient methods to change space group and packing
without having to change
the sequence is to change the length of N and/or C terminal tags.
An example that I am familiar with is given by the following PDB codes.
1JIZ, 1RMZ, 1JK3, 1UTT, 1UTZ, 2WOA, 2W0D, 1ROS, 1OS9, 3BA0
It includes 1 surface residue mutation, but the rest are small variations
in length.
Complexation with any ligand that may protrude is also likely to work.
Enrico.
