Hi Hongjun,
The 'spherulites' could be DDM crystals. The rods/needles DO NOT seem like DDM crystals. A carefully done SDS-PAGE could clarify further. Alternatively, you could use the sample buffer (no protein) against the same crystallization reagent to find out.

Hi,

I am trying to screen crystals of membrane protein in DDM solutions. I got crystals and its diffraction pattern as I enclosed. Membrane protein crystallization seems quite different from soluble protein. The condition contains PEG400. I learn from other topic here that PEG400 can easily produce DDM detergent crystals. Is it detergent crystal ? Can I tell this from the diffraction pattern? Advices would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
