Single crystals of 6-aminohexanoate-dimer hydrolase have been prepared by the sitting-drop vapour-diffusion method using ammonium sulfate as a precipitant. Diffraction data were collected from native and methylmercuric chloride derivative crystals to resolutions of 1.75 and 1.80 Å, respectively. To investigate the structure–function relationship between 6-aminohexanoate-dimer hydrolase (EII) from Arthrobacter sp. and a cryptic protein (EII′) which shows 88% sequence identity to EII, a hybrid protein (named Hyb-24) of EII and EII′ was overexpressed, purified and crystallized using the sitting-drop vapour-diffusion method with ammonium sulfate as a precipitant in MES buffer pH 6.5. The crystal belongs to space group P3{sub 1}21 or P3{sub 2}21, with unit-cell parameters a = b = 96.37, c = 113.09 Å. Diffraction data were collected from native and methylmercuric chloride derivative crystals to resolutions of 1.75 and 1.80 Å, respectively.
