Title

In situ real-time study of the diffusive dynamic arrest of proteins during crystallization

Abstract

Protein crystallization is of great fundamental and practical interest. Nevertheless, the existing knowledge is insufficient for a rational a priori choice of parameters leading predictably to the successful crystallization of a given protein system. The understanding of the dynamic precursor processes of protein crystallization may contribute to this missing fundamental understanding. For this reason, we propose to continue an earlier successful first-time study observing the crystallization of BLG-ZnCl2-D2O solutions in situ using neutron spectroscopy. In this earlier study, the crystallization had manifested itself in a slow and continuous dynamic arrest of the global center-of-mass diffusion of the proteins in the solution. Here, we propose to complement the existing single IN16B data set by two additional data sets to obtain a more comprehensive and reliable picture.
