Crystal structure of muconate lactonizing enzyme at 6.5 A resolution

J Mol Biol. 1985 Mar 20;182(2):353-5. doi: 10.1016/0022-2836(85)90352-3.

Abstract

We have obtained crystals of Pseudomonas putida muconate lactonizing enzyme. They diffract to better than 2.4 A resolution and have two monomers in the asymmetric unit, related by a non-crystallographic 2-fold axis. The cell dimensions are 139.3 A X 139.3 A X 84.1 A, and the space group is I4. The electron density map at 6.5 A resolution shows that the enzyme is an octamer with D4 symmetry.
