Abstract
The basic pancreatic trypsin inhibitor (abbreviated in the following as PTI) is one of the first natural proteinase inhibitors described in the literature [1–2]. Its amino acid sequence was determined simultaneously by several groups [3–6]. In 1970 the tertiary structure of PTI was reported by Huber et al [7, 17]. A model was built on the basis of an electron density map at 2.5 Å resolution, calculated from observed structure factor amplitudes and multiple isomorphous replacement phases. The purpose of this paper is to describe the crystallographic refinement at 1.5 Å resolution of the PTI model and to present results which have been obtained from the refined model.
