title: Crystallization of UDP-N-acetylglucosamine O-acyltransferase from Escherichia coli.
abstract: Crystals of UDP-N-acetylglucosamine O-acyltransferase (lpxA) from Escherichia coli have been obtained from solutions of sodium/potassium phosphate and dimethylsulfoxide. These crystals belong to the cubic space group P2(1)3 (a = 99.0 A), diffract X-rays to approximately 2.5 A resolution and contain one subunit of the enzyme in the asymmetric unit.
