Thanks for those links virus, very interesting, I'm going to look up that Nature article first thing in the morning.
On a side note, I don't know if anyone else noticed but one comment really throws up a red flag for me, why did it take ~50,000 crystallization attempts to make one crystal that was high enough quality to get good XRD data from? I know it is very difficult to get proteins to crystallize but 50000 attempts? really?

A long time ago, I thought I wanted to be a biochemist; after a summer of extracting RNA from yeast, I switched my major to Anthropology and then went into medicine. Both these fields require hardly any science at all which pleased me immensely! 50,000 attempts = lots of post-grad fellows slaving away in the lab day and night. I admire people who can do that (like Crawdad) because I don't have the patience for it. "I love the smell of napalm in the morning. Smells like ... victory"

Lab work is a pain and this is only speaking from the experience of two quarters of college chem. If you work in a lab, Kudos.
