Crystallization and preliminary X-ray analysis of pyridoxine 4-oxidase, the first enzyme in pyridoxine degradation pathway I

Recombinant pyridoxine 4-oxidase from M. loti MAFF303099 was crystallized and diffraction data were collected to 2.2 Å resolution.

Crystallization and preliminary X-ray analysis of alginate importer from Sphingomonas sp. A1

Alginate importer from Sphingomonas sp. A1 is a member of the ABC transporter superfamily that directly transports alginate polysaccharide into the cytoplasm. Crystals of alginate importer in complex with the periplasmic binding protein AlgQ2 diffracted X-rays to 3.3 Å resolution.

Structure of β-1,4-mannanase from the common sea hare Aplysia kurodai at 1.05 Å resolution

The crystal structure of AkMan, a gastropoda β-1,4-mannanase prepared from the common sea hare Aplysia kurodai, was determined at 1.05 Å resolution. This is the first report on the three-dimensional structure of gastropoda β-1,4-mannanase.
