Malate dehydrogenase from the extreme halophile Halobacterium marismortui crystallizes in highly concentrated phosphate solution in space group 12 with cell dimensions a = 113.8 A, b = 122.8 A, c = 126.7 A, beta = 98.1 degrees. The halophilic enzyme was found to be unstable at lower concentrations of phosphate. It associates with unusually large amounts of water and salt, and the combined particle volume shows a tight fit in the unit cell.

D008291 Malate Dehydrogenase An enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of (S)-malate and NAD+ to oxaloacetate and NADH. EC 1.1.1.37. Malic Dehydrogenase,NAD-Malate Dehydrogenase,Dehydrogenase, Malate,Dehydrogenase, Malic,Dehydrogenase, NAD-Malate,NAD Malate Dehydrogenase
D006217 Halobacterium A genus of HALOBACTERIACEAE whose growth requires a high concentration of salt. Binary fission is by constriction.
D014961 X-Ray Diffraction The scattering of x-rays by matter, especially crystals, with accompanying variation in intensity due to interference effects. Analysis of the crystal structure of materials is performed by passing x-rays through them and registering the diffraction image of the rays (CRYSTALLOGRAPHY, X-RAY).
