title: Crystallization and preliminary crystallographic analysis of N-acetylglucosamine 6-phosphate deacetylase from Escherichia coli.
abstract: N-Acetylglucosamine 6-phosphate deacetylase (E.C. 3.5.1.25), an enzyme from Escherichia coli involved in aminosugar catabolism, has been crystallized by the vapour-diffusion technique using phosphate as precipitant. X-ray diffraction experiments show the crystals to belong to the orthorhombic crystal system, with space group P2(1)2(1)2. The unit-cell parameters are a = 82.09 (2), b = 114.50 (1), c = 80.17 (1) A. The crystals diffract to a maximum resolution of 1.8 A and an initial data set was collected to 2.0 A.
