Pius,
Are you sure that you determined the correct cell. Which program did you
use? Usually there are much less spots on an image when a crystal has so
small unit size dimensions. To me the first crystal looks like protein.
Send it to a synchrotron and process the data in XDS. They can process
for you.

What is the unit cell dimensions in the first crystal? It looks like

Hi all,
We recently observed some diffraction from membrane protein
crystallization
drops diffraction that look like non-proteinaceous (please see
attached files,
from 4 different crystals grown in different conditions).
Rains' question about about lipid and detergent diffraction is so
relevant.
This is most likely what lipids and detergent diffraction looks like?
People with similar experience and know what could be these patterns
might be from may have better suggestions and
would like to hear all comments.
first four images are from drops where detergent is DDM and and vapor
diffusion
while last image is from a crystal grown in mesophase (with monoolein).

Hi All,
I am wondering if the detergent or lipid crystal can have
diffraction at low resolution.
If they can, what does the diffraction pattern looks like? Are there
any literatures describing these?
Many thanks!
