Abstract

Crystals of the C2-subunit of crustacyanin have been grown from solutions containing ammonium sulphate and 2-methyl-2,4-pentanediol as co-precipitants. The crystals belong to space group P2(1)2(1)2(1) (a = 42.0 A, b = 80.9 A, c = 110.8 A) with two subunits per asymmetric unit and diffract beyond 2.2 A resolution.
