Table 4. Selected examples of the diversity of crystallization conditions and indexing parameters for data collected from crystals larger than 70 µm.
The space group is R32 and the unit-cell parameters are a = b = 187, c = 60 Å, α = β = 90, γ = 120°. The complete results are given in Supplementary Tables S2 and S3. The protein buffer is 20 mM Tris pH 8.0, 100 mM NaCl.
