The H+-ATPase from A. thaliana had anisotropic diffraction (ca. 3.6/5.5Å). This could be explained by the crystal packing and more specifically the detergent micelles in the packing.

Dear everybody!

I am currently having an issue with anisotropic diffraction and would
like to cite some references.
I am sure there are plenty of examples outthere.

So, if you are having an own published example at hand, can you please
send me the reference and
maybe the diffraction limits along good and bad directions as well?

Thank you a lot,

Matthias
