Crystallization (Commentary)

Crystallization (Comment) Organism
crystals are grown at 295 K by the sitting-drop method from reservoirs containing 2.0 M ammonium sulfate and 5% 2-propanol. The catalytic trimer is crystallized in space group R32, with unit-cell parameters a = b = 265.3, c = 195.5 A and two trimers in the asymmetric unit. Its structure is determined using molecular replacement and Patterson methods Methanocaldococcus jannaschii
