Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 1995, 92:6057-6061. A novel approach to resolve desperate situations in crystallization. All the hydrophobic residues in HIV-1 integrase were mutated, either singly or in small groups, to lysine or alanine respectively. The presence of just one mutation dramatically improved the solubility of the protein.
