    Abstract

    A 28·5 kDa catalytic fragment of the uracil-DNA glycosylase DNA repair enzyme from Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) has been crystallized using protein from a highly expressing Escherichia coli clone of the Herpes simplex virus type 1 UL2 gene. The protein crystallizes at 12 mg/ml from 11% (w/v) polyethylene glycol 8000 at pH values in the range 6·8 to 7·9, in the presence of (NH4)2SO4. Long trigonal rods (0·08 mm × 0·08 mm × >0·5 mm) diffract beyond 3·0 Å using a laboratory source. The enzyme crystallizes in P31 (or P 32) a = 65·3 Å, c = 49·0 Å with a single molecule in the asymmetric unit and an estimated solvent content of 41% by volume.
