MboA crystals were prepared via the hanging drop vapor diffusion method. Hanging drops were prepared by combining equal volumes of MboA (9 mg per mL) protein solution and reservoir solution (0.4 M lithium sulfate and 0.1 M sodium acetate, pH 4.8) for a total drop volume of 2 uL. The substrate bound structure was prepared by incubating apo crystals with 0.3 uL of 100 mM LAR in 0.1 M sodium acetate, pH 4.6 for two hours prior to looping. Crystals were cryoprotected with the addition of 0.75 uL of 40% glycerol in 0.1 M sodium acetate, pH 4.6 and flash frozen in LN2 |
