Notes:
Vanillyl-alcohol oxidase catalyses the oxidation of several 4-hydroxybenzyl alcohols by using 8-α-(N3-histidyl)-FAD as a covalently bound prosthetic group. Crystals of vanillyl-alcohol oxidase from Penicillium simplicissimum have been grown by using the vapor diffusion technique. The space group was found to be I4, with cell dimensions a = b = 140.5 Å, c = 132.9 Å. Diffraction data have been recorded to 3.2 Å resolution by using a laboratory source and to 2.5 Å resolution on flash freezing the crystal at the ELETTRA Synchrotron X-ray diffraction beam line.
