Abstract
Aes belongs to the family of hormone-sensitive lipases and has acetyl-esterase activity. It is also known to control maltose uptake through interaction with MalT, the central regulator of the Escherichia coli maltose system. Aes was crystallized as an N-terminally His(6)-tagged protein both in the native form and with selenomethionine substitution. Crystals grew in both cases in space group R32 to dimensions of about 0.2 x 0.15 x 0.05 mm (native His(6)-Aes) and about 0.5 x 0.3 x 0.1 mm (SeMet-His(6)-Aes). A native data set has been obtained at 2.4 A resolution; the selenomethionine-substituted Aes crystals diffracted to 3.0 A resolution.
