|
| • | In order to
understand how a protein |
||||||||||||
| functions it is
necessary to determine its |

| three dimensional
structure |

| • | Protein
structural analysis is both an art |
||||||||||||
| and a science |
|||||||||||||
| – | You need highly
purified protein |
||||||||||||
| – | You need to
figure out how to make |
||||||||||||
| crystals |
|||||||||||||
| – | You need to be
able to solve the structure |
