Abstract:Microgravity has been shown to be an excellent tool for protein crystal formation. A retrospective analysis of all publicly available crystallization data, including many that have not yet been published, clearly demonstrates the value of the microgravity environment for producing superior protein crystals. The parameters in the database (the Butler Microgravity Protein Crystal Database, BμCDB) that were evaluated pertain to both crystal morphology and diffraction quality. Success metrics were determined as im… Show more
