Abstract
A new crystal form of aspartate aminotransferase (EC 2.6.1.1) isolated from chicken heart cytosol was prepared. The crystals grown from an a mmonium sulfate solution containing ethanol belong to the P 2(1)2(1)2( 1) space group with the following unit cell dimensions: a = 62.38 Angs trom, b = 117.41 Angstrom, c = 124.34 Angstrom. The asymmetric unit of the unit cell contains one molecule of the enzyme. The crystals diffr act to 1.8 Angstrom resolution.
