Hi Anirban, It would be great if you could share the compilation of relevant responses to your request. I think many others in the community could use these examples for educational purposes.

If you have concrete experience about visually unappealing, i.e. ugly crystals ( your own take on ugly is fine) diffracting better than comparably similar sized nicer looking crystals of the same protein, will you please share here ? Even better if that led to a published structure. Might you also have pictures ? We have all heard anecdotes about not using visual appearance to judge the quality of crystals as far as their ability to give good diffraction data is concerned but I am trying to gather some concrete pointers here to motivate trainees. Thanks very much for any help. Best, Anirban P.S. I know that there is probably a lot of thought and wisdom on this this specific topic but I am really looking for actual experience. ________________________________ To unsubscribe from the CCP4BB list, click the following link: https://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/cgi-bin/webadmin?SUBED1=CCP4BB&A=1 ######################################################################## To unsubscribe from the CCP4BB list, click the following link: https://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/cgi-bin/webadmin?SUBED1=CCP4BB&A=1
