S. Ransac et al., CRYSTALLIZATION AND PRELIMINARY-X-RAY ANALYSIS OF A LIPASE FROM STAPHYLOCOCCUS-HYICUS, Journal of structural biology, 114(2), 1995, pp. 153-155
Single crystals of a lipase from Staphylococcus hyicus have been obtai
ned using a combination of 18 to 24% dimethylsulfoxide and 10% isoprop
anol as a precipitant. The crystals grow at 4 degrees C in 2-3 months.
They belong to the orthorhombic space group P2(1)2(1)2(1) with a = 73
.31 Angstrom, b = 77.96 Angstrom, and c = 169.81 Angstrom, with two pr
otein molecules per asymmetrical unit. The crystals diffract to at lea
st 2.8 Angstrom resolution and are suitable for an X-ray structure ana
lysis. (C) 1995 Academic Press,lnc.
