  • Publication number: 20070231874
    Abstract: Glucokinase is crystallized, the three-dimensional structure thereof is analyzed, and then a compound to be bonded to glucokinase is designed on the basis of the coordinate for the resulting three-dimensional structure. Specifically, glucokinase is freed of a part of amino acid residues being on the N-terminal side thereof, to thereby crystallize it, and the three-dimensional structure of the resulting crystal is elucidated through the X-ray crystallographic analysis thereof.
