The neutral lipase from the bacteria Pseudomonas fluorescens, marketed under the trade name LpL-200S, has been crystallized in a form suitable for X-ray diffraction analysis from 35% n-propanol at pH 8.5. The crystals are monoclinic prisms and are of space group C2 with a = 91.00 A, b = 47.17 A, c = 35.21 A and beta = 121.43 degrees. There is one molecule of the protein as the asymmetric unit of the crystals. The diffraction pattern extends to at least 1.6 A resolution and the crystals are extremely robust in terms of X-ray exposure.
