Y. Yamada et al., Crystallization and preliminary X-ray analysis of catalase-peroxidase fromthe halophilic archaeon Haloarcula marismortui, ACT CRYST D, 57, 2001, pp. 1157-1158
Catalase-peroxidases are bifunctional enzymes found in many microorganisms.
Crystals of catalase-peroxidase from the halophilic archaeon Haloarcula ma
rismortui were obtained using the hanging-drop vapour-diffusion method. The
rhombic plate-shaped crystals were grown from purified protein solution us
ing (NH4)(2)SO4 as precipitant at 293 K. The crystal belongs to the monocli
nic system, space group C2, and diffracted beyond 2.0 Angstrom resolution.
