title: Crystallization and preliminary X-ray diffraction studies of 3-methyladenine-DNA glycosylase II from Escherichia coli.
abstract: Single crystals of 3-methyladenine-DNA glycosylase II produced from the alkA gene of Escherichia coli have been obtained by the method of vapour diffusion with polyethylene glycol 6000 as precipitant at pH 8.5. The crystals belong to the monoclinic space group C2, with a = 58.6 A, b = 76.8 A, c = 62.2 A, beta = 110.3 degrees. They contain one molecule per asymmetric unit and diffract to 2.7 A resolution.
