Crystallization (Commentary)

Crystallization (Comment) Organism
hanging drop vapor diffusion method, crystal structure of the enzyme in complex with cofactor and either UDP-glucose or UDP-N-acetyl-D-galactosamine, determined at 2.5 and 2.1 A, crystals belong to the space group P222(1), with unit cell dimensions of a = 61 A, b = 96 A, and c = 140 A Pseudomonas aeruginosa
