Abstract
The haem oxygenase HugZ is part of the iron-acquisition mechanism that is essential for the adaptive colonization of Helicobacter pylori, a major pathogen of gastroenteric diseases. The HugZ-haemin complex has been purified and crystallized and diffraction data sets have been collected to 1.8 Å resolution. The HugZ-haemin complex crystals belonged to space group P212121, with unit-cell parameters a = 88.40, b = 139.37, c = 152.97 Å.
