Preliminary X-ray crystallographic study of methanol dehydrogenase from Methylophilus methylotrophus

Single crystals of methanol dehydrogenase from Methylophilus methylotrophus have been prepared by the macroseeding method. The crystals belong to the monoclinic space group C2, and have unit cell parameters a = 125.62 A, b = 63.83 A, c = 83.99 A, and beta = 93.24 degrees. There is one 62,000 Mr monomer in the asymmetric unit. The crystals diffract to beyond 2.0 A resolution.
