✦ Synopsis
Deoxyuridine triphosphate nucleotidohydrolase (dUTPase), an enzyme in the nucleotide metabolism that is a pyrophosphatase hydrolyzing dUTP, has been crystallized. The crystals belong to the trigonal space group R3 and diffract beyond 2 A. The native dUTPase crystals and a mercury derivative are stable in the X-ray beam and are suitable for a high resolution X-ray structure analysis.
