Preliminary crystallographic studies on the D15 5' to 3' exonuclease from phage T5.

The D15 exonuclease from phage T5 has been crystallized from 35% (w/v) ammonium sulfate by the hanging drop vapor diffusion technique. The crystals grow in tetragonal space group P4(1)22 or P4(3)22 with cell dimensions a = b = 79.2 A and c = 138.0 A. The crystals diffract to 2.5 A and are suitable for X-ray structure determination.
