The overexpression and purification of the second enzyme in Escherichia coli peptidoglycan biosynthesis, UDP-N-acetylenolpyruvylglucosamine reductase (MurB), provided sufficient protein to undertake crystallization and X-ray crystallographic studies of the enzyme. MurB crystallizes in 14-20% PEG 8000, 100 mM sodium cacodylate, pH 8.0, and 200 mM calcium acetate in the presence of its substrate UDP-N-acetylglucosamine enolpyruvate. Crystals of MurB belong to the tetragonal space group P4(1)2(1)2 with a = b = 49.6 A, c = 263.2 A, and alpha = beta = gamma = 90 degrees at -160 degrees C and diffract to at least 2.5 A. Screening for heavy atom derivatives has yielded a single site that is reactive with both methylmercury nitrate and Thimerosal.
