Rice ( Oryza sativa L.) Os4BGlu12, a glycoside hydrolase family 1 β-glucosidase (EC 3.2.1.21), was expressed as a fusion protein with an N-terminal thioredoxin/His6 tag in Escherichia coli strain Origami B (DE3) and purified with subsequent removal of the N-terminal tag. Native Os4BGlu12 and its complex with 2,4-dinitrophenyl-2-deoxy-2-fluoro-β- d-glucopyranoside (DNP2FG) were crystallized using 19% polyethylene glycol (3350 or 2000, respectively) in 0.1 M Tris-HCl pH 8.5, 0.16 M NaCl at 288 K. Diffraction data sets for the apo and inhibitor-bound forms were collected to 2.50 and 2.45 Å resolution, respectively. The space group and the unit-cell parameters of the crystal indicated the presence of two molecules per asymmetric unit, with a solvent content of 50%. The structure of Os4BGlu12 was successfully solved in space group P43212 by molecular replacement using the white clover cyanogenic β-glucosidase structure (PDB code ) as a search model.
