Abstract
A composition of crystalline TGF-.beta.2 is described. The tertiary structure of the protein homodimer determined by X-ray crystallography to 2.1 angstrom resolution is shown. This structure provides data useful in the rational design of drugs to mimic the physiologic properties of proteins of the TGF-.beta. family.
