Abstract
The potential usefulness of the new zwitterionic solubilizing agent, dimethyl ethylammonium propane sulfonate (NDSB195), in protein crystallization was shown using hen egg‐white lysozyme. In the presence of this agent, highly diffracting crystals were obtained using ammonium sulphate as a precipitant, whereas in its absence only amorphous precipitates were obtained. The crystals possess a triclinic unit cell not previously described and diffract to a resolution of 2 Å. To ascertain that the new reagent had not produced significant changes in the protein fold the structure was determined to a resolution of 2.6 Å. Only minor differences were observed (notably in regions of crystal contacts) with the known tetragonal lysozyme structure (Brookhaven Protein Data Bank entry 1HEL).
