Single-stranded DNA-binding proteins (SSBs) play a crucial role in DNA processing such as replication, repair and recombination in all organisms, from bacteria to human. Streptomyces coelicolor ssb gene was overexpressed in a heterologous host, Escherichia coli NM522. 15 mg of purified protein from 1 dm3 of culture was obtained in one-step procedure applying Ni2+ chelating chromatography. Among bacterial SSBs with the solved crystal structure, the S. coelicolor SSB displayed significant sequence similarity with those from Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Mycobacterium smegmatis, slow growing bacteria with a high GC content. Moreover, conserved amino acid region that forms additional β strand in mycobacterial SSBs was also found in S. coelicolor SSB. The full-length protein readily crystallises in space group I222 or I212121 with unit-cell parameters a = 100.8, b = 102.1, c = 164.2 Å ; . The asymmetric unit is expected to contain four monomers with solvent content of 52-55 %.
