CRYSTALLIZATION AND PRELIMINARY X-RAY STUDIES OF A BACILLUS SUBTILIS AND THERMUS THERMOPHILUS HB8 CHIMERIC 3-ISOPROPYLMALATE DEHYDROGENASE
1991
A chimeric gene was constructed by fusing the Bacillus subtilis and Thermus thermophilus genes coding for 3-isopropylmalate dehydrogenase, and expressed in Escherichia coli. The chimeric enzyme was crystallized in a size suitable for X-ray structure analysis. The crystal has a space group of P3(1)21 or P3(2)21, a = b = 77.1 A and c = 158.3 A, which is isomorphous with that of the native enzyme from T. thermophilus.
