Recent Insights into Protein Crystal Nucleation
Homogeneous nucleation of protein crystals in solution is tackled from both thermodynamic and energetic perspectives. The entropic contribution to the destructive action of water molecules which tend to tear up the crystals and to their bond energy is considered. It is argued that, in contrast to th...
