DNA gyrase B (GyrB) from B. stearothermophilus has been crystallized in the presence of the non‐hydrolyzable ATP analogue, 5′‐adenylyl‐β‐γ‐imidodiphosphate (ADPNP), by the dialysis method. A complete native data set to 3.7 Å has been collected from crystals which belonged to the cubic space group I 23 with unit‐cell dimension a = 250.6 Å. Self‐rotation function analysis indicates the position of a molecular twofold axis. Low‐resolution data sets of a thimerosal and a selenomethionine derivative have also been analysed. The heavy‐atom positions are consistent with one dimer in the asymmetric unit.
