“…The observation of crystals in living cells, reported in the literature as in cellulo or in vivo crystals is known for decades and was repeatedly described as a natural phenomenon . Examples are crystals of storage proteins in seeds, insulin crystals within secretory granules, solid state catalysts, biocrystallization of the DNA‐binding protein (Dps) and DNA as a response to cellular damage and stress, or β‐hematin crystals produced as a detoxification strategy by malaria parasites . Although in cellulo crystallization still is a new exciting area in cell biology, many natively crystallizing proteins in living cells first function as storage such as vitellin yolk protein crystals from bullfrog oocytes, from leopard frogs, from A. aegypti oocytes, lipovitellin from bony fish oocytes, edestin from hemp plant, tobacco seed protein and Cry protein in B. thuringiensis , trichocyst matrix protein in Paramecium and food milk protein in Diplotera punctata .…”
