Abstract:
Crystals of the hydroxynitrile lyase from Hevea brasiliensis overexpressed in Pichia pastoris have been obtained by the hanging-drop technique at 294 K with ammonium sulfate and PEG 400 as precipitants. The crystals belong to the orthorhombic space group C222(1) with cell dimensions of a = 47.6, b = 106.8 and c = 128.2 A. The crystals diffract to about 2.5 A resolution on a rotating-anode X-ray source.
