The use of heterogeneous and epitaxial nucleants to promote the growth of protein crystals
Abstract
Fifty different mineral samples were tested as potential heterogeneous or epitaxial nucleants for four commonly crystallized proteins. It was found, using conventional protein crystallization techniques, that for each protein there was a set of mineral substrates that promoted nucleation of crystals at lower critical levels of supersaturation then required for spontaneous growth. In at least one case, the growth of lysozyme on the mineral...
