Abstract
ADP-ribosyl cyclase synthesizes the secondary messenger cyclic ADP-rib ose from NAD(+). Diffraction quality crystals of the enzyme from ovote stes of Aplysia californica have been obtained. Crystallographic analy sis of this enzyme will yield insight into the mode of binding of the novel cyclic nucleotide and the mechanism by which NAD(+) is cyclized. (C) 1996 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
