Abstract
Two crystal habits, one rod shaped and the other square prismatic, of the Fab fragment of a monoclonal anti-phenylalanine hydroxylase antibody have been grown using the method of vapour phase diffusion against polyethylene glycol 6000. The square prisms diffract to better than 2.8 A, belong to the space group P1 and have unit cell parameters a = 41.8 A, b = 50.3 A, c = 114.7 A, alpha = 97.6 degrees, beta = 91.7 degrees, gamma = 91.0 degrees, while the rod-shaped crystals belong to the space group P212121, have unit cell parameters a = 105.6 A, b = 119.8 A, c = 82.2 A and diffract to 3.5 A resolution.
