The biosynthetic threonine deaminase from Escherichia coli, an alloste
ric tetramer with key regulatory functions, has been crystallized in s
everal crystal forms. Two distinct forms, both belonging to either spa
ce group P3(1)21 or P3(2)21, with different sized asymmetric units tha
t both contain a tetramer, grow under identical conditions. Diffractio
n data sets to 2.8 Angstrom resolution (native) and 2.9 Angstrom resol
ution (isomorphous uranyl derivative) have been collected from a third
crystal form in space group I222.
