    Abstract

    The enzyme dethiobiotin synthetase (EC 6.3.3.3) has been cloned and over-expressed in Escherichia coli in such a way that milligram quantities are available. The purified enzyme has been subjected to a number of physical and chemical studies, sequenced and most notably it has been crystallized in a form that is suitable for X-ray structure determination. The cell dimensions are a = 72.8 A, b = 49.2 A, c = 61.4 A, beta = 106.2 degrees. The systematic absences are consistent with the monoclinic space group C2 with one polypeptide chain in the asymmetric unit.
