Endoglucanase CelC from Clostridium thermocellum expressed in Escherichia coli has been crystallized in two different crystal forms by the hanging drop method. Crystals of form I were grown with polyethylene glycol as a precipitant. They are orthorhombic, space group P212121, with cell dimensions a =51.4 Å, b =84.3 Å, and c =87.5 Å. Crystals of form II, obtained in ammonium sulfate solutions, belong to the tetragonal space group P41212 (or P43212) with cell dimensions of a = b = 130.7 Å and c = 69.6 Å. Diffraction data to 2.8 Å resolution were observed for both crystal forms with a rotating anode generator. Preliminary oscillation images of the orthorhombic form I crystals using a synchrotron radiation source show diffraction to 2.2 Å resolution, indicating that these crystals are suitable for high resolution crystallographic analysis. © 1994 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
