sitting drop vapor diffusion method at 16°C. The crystal structure of CrtE solved to a resolution of 2.7 A reveals a strong structural similarity to the large subunit of the heterodimeric geranylgeranylpyrophosphate synthase 1 from Arabidopsis thaliana with each subunit containing 14 helices | Synechococcus sp. |
