Periplasmic Escherichia coli
L-asparaginase
II with an Ser58Ala mutation in the active-site cavity has been crystallized in a new orthorhombic form (space group P2(1)2(1)2). Crystals of this polymorph suitable for X-ray diffraction have been obtained by vapour diffusion using two sets of conditions: (i) 1% agarose gel using
MPD
as precipitant (pH 4.8) and (ii) liquid droplets using PEG-MME 550 (pH 9.0). The crystals grown in agarose gel are characterized by unit-cell parameters a = 226.9, b = 128.4, c = 61.9 A and diffract to 2.3 A resolution. The asymmetric unit contains six protein molecules arranged into one pseudo-222-symmetric homotetramer and an active-site competent dimer from which another homotetramer is generated by crystallographic symmetry.
