Diffraction quality crystals of recombinant staphylokinase (STAR) have been grown by the hanging drop vapor diffusion technique from a solution containing MgCl 2 , Tris buffer (pH 8.5), and polyethylene glycol 4000. The crystals belong to the monoclinic space group C2 with unit cell dimensions a โซุโฌ

โฆ Synopsis
Peptidyl-tRNA hydrolase from
Escherichia coli, a monomer of 21 kDa, was overexpressed from its cloned gene pth and crystallized by using polyethylene glycol as precipitant. The crystals are orthorhombic and have unit cell parameters a 5 47.24 ร , b 5 63.59 ร , and c 5 62.57 ร . They belong to space group P2 1 2 1 2 1 and diffract to better than 1.2 ร resolution. The structure is being solved by multiple isomorphous replacement.

Crystals of the Escherichia coli replication terminator protein (Tus) com- plexed with its binding site DNA were obtained by a microdialysis method using PEG 4000. They belong to the tetragonal space group P4,2,2 or P4,2,2 with the unit cell parameter: a = 68.1 A, c = 230.7 A and contain one protein
The tRNA modifying enzyme tRNA-guanine transglycosylase (Tgt) catalyzes the exchange of guanine in the first position of the anticodon with the queuine precursor 7-aminomethyl-7-deazaguanine. Tgt from Zymomo-na8 mobilis has been purified by crystallization and further recrystallized to obtain single
Volvatoxin A2, an ion channel disturbed cardiotoxic and hemolytic protein from the edible mushroom, Volvarilla uoluacea, has been crystallized by the vapor diffusion method using polyethylene glycol 4000 and ammonium sulfate in sodium acetate buffer pH 4.6. The best crystals belong to the monoclinic
A bifunctional enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of formyltetrahydrofolate to methylene-tetrahydrofolate (5,10methenyltetrahydrofolate cyclohydrolase and 5,10-methylene tetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase), has been subcloned from a cDNA library, purified to homogeneity, and crystallized. The crystals
Vanillyl-alcohol oxidase catalyses the oxidation of several 4-hydroxybenzyl alcohols by using 8-alpha-(N3-histidyl)-FAD as a covalently bound prosthetic group. Crystals of vanillyl-alcohol oxidase from Penicillium simplicissimum have been grown by using the vapor diffusion technique. The space group
