2. Description of the Related Art Protein biosynthesis is an indispensable function in the life activities of all cells, and is composed of four steps: "start", "extension", "termination" and "ribosome recycling". The final step (fourth step) in protein biosynthesis involves messenger RNA, transfer R, and ribosome recycling to the next “start” step.
The process is terminated by releasing and dissociating a termination complex consisting of NA and ribosome, respectively. In Escherichia coli, which is a prokaryotic organism, this "reuse" of ribosomes is based on Ribosome recycling factor (RRF).
And elongation factor G, below
EFG). This ribosome “reuse” process is reviewed by Dr. Janosi et al. (19
96 Adv. Biophys. 32: 121-201). Dissociation of the protein translation termination complex is RR in eukaryotes
It has been suggested that eukaryotic mRNA may be monocistronic and prokaryotic may be polycistronic (Kozak 1987, Mo
l. Cell. Biol. 7: 3438-3445; Das et al. 1984, Nucleic Ac

cad. Sci. USA 83: 8506-8510; Sprengel et al. 1985 Nuc.
leic Acids Res. 13: 893-909). Therefore, in eukaryotes, even if the dissociation of ribosome from mRNA is inhibited, it does not affect downstream cistron. Thus, the fourth step of dissociation of the protein translation termination complex, which is the last step of protein biosynthesis in eukaryotes, is thought to be different from that of prokaryotes, and is particularly expected as a target for a new type of antibiotic. .

[0004] In recent years, a database has been created for the purpose of eliminating this problem and efficiently finding inhibitors. Based on this, the Rashionardo rug design method is being studied and developed. As an example of this,
Examples include inhibitors of proteases, which are recently marketed anti-HIV agents. HIV protease is crystallized and its three-dimensional structure is known. Based on this structure and the amino acid sequence of the three-dimensional structure of the active site, a compound having the highest affinity for this site is selected from compounds known from a computer, and its inhibitory activity is measured. By forming a co-crystal of the active protein and the target protein and measuring the three-dimensional structure, it is possible to predict a compound that binds even better, and the compound is synthesized and its inhibitory activity is measured. Then, a co-crystal of this substance and the target protein is formed again, and an extremely effective substance can be obtained by repeating the above process.

93). Therefore, it is possible to presume the secondary structure from the amino acid sequence obtained therefrom. However, in the current state of the art, the actual three-dimensional structure has not been identified from this secondary structure. In an actual protein, each amino acid residue interacts and, in some cases, undergoes various modifications to form its three-dimensional structure. Therefore, if the three-dimensional structure of the protein is known,
It is possible to create a substance that can serve as the ligand, and in order to create a useful antibiotic in this sense, the determination of the three-dimensional structure by crystallization has extremely important significance. Therefore, an object of the present invention is to elucidate the three-dimensional structure of RRF and to contribute to the development of various antibacterial agents and herbicides.

5% of the solution containing from 18% to 18% were dropletized and equilibrated with a pool containing a higher concentration of crystallization reagent than the droplets.
Equilibration was performed by diffusion of a volatile medium (water or organic solvent) until the vapor pressure of the droplet was equal to the vapor pressure of the pool. As the equilibrium occurs by water exchange (drops to pools), the volume of the drops changes. As a result, the concentration of all media in the droplet changes. For a medium having a higher vapor pressure than water, a conversion from pool to droplets occurs. In this example, the glass container with which the RRF protein solution comes into contact is used after its surface is subjected to a hydrophobic treatment. Tris-HCl 100mM
