Crystallography is a book of poetry and prose published in 1994 and revised in 2003 by Canada Canadian author Christian B k . Based around a pataphysics pataphysical conceit that language is a crystallization process, the book includes several forms of poetry including concrete poetry , as well as pseudohistorical texts, diagrams, charts, and English gematria . An important illustrative feature is the section entitled A Key to Speleological Formations , which compares each letter of the alphabet and punctuation mark to a rock formation, allowing each poem to be read as if it were a landscape feature. Major poems in the book include Geodes and Diamonds . B k explains the title in an introduction. Crystallography refers to both the science of crystallography and a reanalysis of the word s roots crystal meaning clear , and graph meaning writing . tt Inspired by the etymology of the word crystallography, such a work represents an act of lucid writing, which uses the language of geological science to misread the poetics of rhetorical language. Such lucid writing does not concern itself with the transparent transmission of a message so that, ironically, the poetry often seems opaque instead, lucid writing concerns itself with the exploratory examination of its own pattern in a manner reminiscent of lucid dreaming .

orphan date March 2009 Racemic crystallography is a recently developed technique of structural biology , which appears capable of producing certain protein crystals. ref Protein Racemate Yields Crystals , Amanda Yarnell, Chemical & Engineering News , 87 , 4, p. 8 ref Development The process was first proposed by UCLA structural biologist Todd Yeates in 1995, who suggested that a racemic mixture of proteins would crystallize more readily than each component alone. The process of mixing proteins made of D amino acids with the more readily available L amino acid containing proteins appears straightforward, but it took a decade to overcome the obstacle that D amino acids cannot be isolated in the laboratory. The obstacle was gradually overcome by laboratories which developed methods of chemically synthesizing D amino proteins. By 2008 the United States National Institute of General Medical Sciences was able to synthesize about 300 such amino acids. ref C&EN p. 8 ref In 2009 the first announcement of successful results in the effort to obtain protein crystals by the racemic method was made by University of Chicago researchers. ref J.Am.Chem.Soc. , DOI, 10.1021 ja8077973 ref They produced crystals of the protein BmBKTx1, which is found in nature in the venom of an Asian scorpion .

In crystallography crystals are described as isomorphous if they are closely similar in shape. ref cite book last Wells first A.F. title Structural Inorganic Chemistry publisher Oxford University Press date 1984 edition 5th isbn 0198553706 pp 186&ndash 186 in 3rd. edition ref Historically crystal shape was defined by measuring the angles between crystal faces with a goniometer . In modern usage isomorphous crystals belong to the same space group . Double salt Double sulfate s, such as Tutton s salt , with the generic formula M sup I sup sub 2 sub M sup II sup SO sub 4 sub sub 2 sub .6H sub 2 sub O, where M sup I sup is an alkali metal and M sup II sup is a divalent ion of Magnesium Mg , Manganese Mn , Iron Fe , Cobalt Co , Nickel Ni , Copper Cu or Zinc Zn form a series of isomorphous compounds which were important in the nineteenth century in establishing the correct atomic weight s of the transition elements. Alum s, such as KAl SO sub 4 sub sub 2 sub .12H sub 2 sub O, are another series of isomorphous compounds, though there are three series of alums with similar external structures, but slightly different internal structures. Many spinel s are also isomorphous. In order to form isomorphous crystals two substances must have the same chemical formulation, they must contain atoms which have corresponding chemical properties and the sizes of corresponding atoms should be similar. These requirements ensure that the forces within and between molecules and ions are approximately similar and result in crystals that have the same internal structure. Even though the space group is the same, the unit cell dimensions will be slightly different because of the different sizes of the atoms involved.

Cryo bio crystallography is the application of crystallography at cryogenic temperatures. Basic principles Cryo crystallography enables X ray data collection at cryogenic, near liquid nitrogen temperatures also called N2 . Crystals are transferred from mother liquor to a hydrocarbon environment Crystals are mounted with a glass fiber as opposed to a capillary Crystals are cooled with a cold nitrogen stream on a diffraction apparatus to prevent the solvent freezing in the crystals thus maintaining crystallographic integrity.

In crystallography , direct methods are a family of methods for estimating the phases of the Fourier transform of the scattering density from the corresponding magnitudes. The methods generally exploit constraints or statistical correlations between the phases of different Fourier components that result from the fact that the scattering density must be a positive real number. In two dimensions, it is relatively easy to solve the phase problem directly, but not so in three dimensions. The key step was taken by Herbert A. Hauptman Hauptman and Jerome Karle Karle , who developed a practical method to employ the Sayre equation for which they were awarded the 1985 Nobel prize in Chemistry . At present, direct methods are the preferred method for phasing crystals of small molecules having up to 1000 atoms in the asymmetric unit. However, they are generally not feasible by themselves for larger molecules such as protein s. ref cite journal author Us n I, Sheldrick GM title Advances in direct methods for protein crystallography journal Curr.

Time resolved crystallography utilizes X ray crystallography imaging to visualize reactions in four dimensions x, y, z and time . This enables the studies of dynamical changes that occur in for example enzymes during their catalysis. The time dimension is incorporated by triggering the reaction of interest in the crystal prior to X ray exposure, and then collecting the diffraction patterns at different time delays. In order to study these dynamical properties of macromolecule s three criteria must be met ref cite journal pmid 11062553 year 2000 last1 Hajdu first1 J last2 Neutze first2 R last3 Sj gren first3 T last4 Edman first4 K last5 Sz ke first5 A last6 Wilmouth first6 RC last7 Wilmot first7 CM title Analyzing protein functions in four dimensions volume 7 issue 11 pages 1006 12 doi 10.1038 80911 journal Nature Structural Biology ref The macromolecule must be biologically active in the crystalline state It must be possible to trigger the reaction in the crystal The intermediate of interest must be detectable, i.e. it must have a reasonable amount of concentration in the crystal preferably over 25 . This has led to the development of several techniques that can be divided into two groups, the pump probe method and diffusion trapping methods. Pump probe In the pump probe method the reaction is first triggered pump by photolysis most often laser light and then a diffraction pattern is collected by an X ray pulse probe at a specific time delay. This makes it possible to obtain many images at different time delays after reaction triggering, and thereby building up a chronological series of images describing the events during reaction. To obtain a reasonable signal to noise ratio this pump probe cycle has to be performed many times for each spatial rotation of the crystal, and many times for the same time delay. Therefore the reaction that one wishes to study with pump probe .... References reflist Category Crystallography ... more details
