Title: Crystallization, Preliminary X-ray Diffraction and Structure Solution of MosA, a Dihydrodipicolinate Synthase from Sinorhizobium Meliloti L5-30

Journal Article · · Acta Cryst. F

The structure of MosA, a dihydrodipicolinate synthase and reported methyltransferase from Sinorhizobium meliloti, has been solved using molecular replacement with Escherichia coli dihydrodipicolinate synthase as the model. A crystal grown in the presence of pyruvate diffracted X-rays to 2.3 Angstroms resolution using synchrotron radiation and belonged to the orthorhombic space group C2221, with unit-cell parameters a = 69.14, b = 138.87, c = 124.13 Angstroms.
