Protein Crystallization Seen in Real Time

A team of investigators from the Molecular Foundry announce that atomic force mciroscopy can now be used to determine how a certain class of proteins promotes the development of crystals in cell-like environments. The work focused on analyzing surface-layer (S-layer) proteins, which are the p... [ read more >> ]
