1	VAPOR DIFFUSION	5.5	293	CRYSTALS WERE GROWN AT 20C VIA THE VAPOR DIFFUSION METHOD BY MIXING EQUAL AMOUNTS OF PROTEIN (20-25 MG/ML IN 50 MM HEPES/NAOH, PH 7.5, 250 MM KCL, 0.5 MM PMSF, 1 MM BENZAMIDINE AND 5% (V/V) GLYCEROL) WITH WELL SOLUTION (1.4-1.6 M AMMONIUM SULFATE, 0.1 M NA-CITRATE PH 5.8, 20 MM B-MERCAPTOETHANOL). SERIALLY DILUTED CRUSHED CRYSTALS WERE USED FOR MICRO-SEEDING ONE DAY AFTER THE DROPS WERE SET UP. CRYSTALS APPEARED ONE DAY AFTER SEEDING AND GREW TO A MAXIMUM SIZE OF 120 X 800 UM WITHIN 10 DAYS. CRYSTALS WERE STABILIZED FOR 12 HOURS BY TRANSFER TO FRESH WELL SOLUTION. THEY WERE THEN CRYO-PROTECTED BY STEP-WISE TRANSFER INTO CRYO-BUFFER CONTAINING 1.6 M AMMONIUM SULFATE, 50 MM HEPES, PH 7.5, 100 MM NA-CITRATE, PH 5.8, 100 MM KCL, 50 MM DTT AND UP TO 20% (V/V) GLYCEROL. IT WAS FOUND THAT MANGANESE IONS COULD REPLACE THE MAGNESIUM REQUIRED FOR THE BINDING OF THDP TO THE ENZYME.
