โฆ Synopsis
Acetyl xylan esterase from Penicillium purpurogenum, a single-chain 23 kDa member of a newly characterized family of esterases that cleaves side chain ester linkages in xylan, has been crystallized. The crystals diffract to better than 1 A resolution at the Cornell High Energy Synchrotron Source (CHESS) and are highly stable in the synchrotron radiation. The space group is P2,2,2' and cell dimensions are a = 34.94 b = 6l.OA, c = 72.5A.
