Crystallization and preliminary X‐ray diffraction analysis of malic enzyme from pigeon liver
1999
Recombinant pigeon-liver malic enzyme was expressed in Escherichia coli and purified to homogeneity. Two different crystal forms were grown by the hanging-drop vapour-diffusion method. Both types of crystals belong to the tetragonal space group P4222, with unit-cell dimensions a = b = 163.8, c = 174.3 A for the octahedral crystals and a = b = 124.5, c = 179.2 A for the rod-like crystals. X-ray diffraction data were collected at 100 K using a synchrotron-radiation X-ray source. The Matthews parameter suggests that there are four and two molecules per asymmetric unit for the larger and the smaller tetragonal unit cells, respectively.
