Abstract

The plastocyanins from a green alga (Enteromorpha prolifera) and cucumber (Cucumis sativus) have been crystallized. Crystal data are as follows: E. prolifera plastocyanin, space group I4, a = b = 53.9 A, c = 59.4 A, Z = 8; C. sativus plastocyanin, space group P4(1) (or P4(3) ), a = b = 66.7 A, c = 46.0 A, Z = 8. Accordingly, the asymmetric units of the crystals contain one and two molecules, respectively.
