Human vascular adhesion protein‐1 (VAP‐1) is a membrane‐bound multifunctional glycoprotein with both adhesive and enzymatic properties. The protein belongs to the copper‐containing amine oxidase (CAO) family, which use 2,4,5‐trihydroxyphenylalanine quinone as a cofactor. Here, the crystallization an...
