Crystallization of a type I 3-dehydroquinase from Salmonella typhi

Crystals have been grown of a type I 3-dehydroquinase from both Escherichia coli and Salmonella typhi. However, only those from S. typhi diffract to a resolution of 2.3 A on a conventional X-ray source and are suitable for structure determination. The space group has been determined as P2(1)2(1)2 with unit cell dimensions a = 48.01 A, b = 114.29 A, c = 42.87 A. There is one subunit in the asymmetric unit.
