Acoustic combinatorial crystallization generates huge 9216 crystallization library from 64 building blocks [PDF]
We present a novel method for protein crystallization: acoustic combinatorial crystallization. In this approach, crystallization cocktails are assembled directly on crystallization labware using acoustic liquid handling, without relying on a pre-defined ...

Functionalization of the BCL6 BTB domain into a noncovalent crystallization chaperone
The production of diffraction-quality protein crystals is challenging and often requires bespoke, time-consuming and expensive strategies. A system has been developed in which the BCL6 BTB domain acts as a crystallization chaperone and promiscuous ...

Optimization of crystal nucleation close to a metastable fluid-fluid phase transition [PDF]
The presence of a metastable fluid-fluid critical point is thought to dramatically influence the crystallization pathway, increasing the nucleation rate by many orders of magnitude over the predictions of classical nucleation theory.

On the Quality of Protein Crystals Grown under Diffusion Mass-transport Controlled Regime (I)
It has been previously shown that the diffraction quality of protein crystals strongly depends on mass transport during their growth. In fact, several studies support the idea that the higher the contribution of the diffusion during mass transport, the ...
