title: Crystallization and preliminary crystallographic study of neuraminidase from Micromonospora viridifaciens.
abstract: Single crystals of neuraminidase from the bacterium Micromonospora viridifaciens were obtained using the hanging drop vapour diffusion method and polyethylene glycol as precipitant at pH 5.0 or 5.5. The crystals belong to the orthorhombic space group P2(1)2(1)2(1), with unit cell dimensions a = 48.14 A, b = 82.73 A, c = 84.75 A and with one molecule in the asymmetric unit. Diffraction extends to at least 1.7 A.
