Shivesh-- You might consider the following options in addition to what you have already seen:
pulsing experiments where you add a bit of fresh protein to the drops add water to your drops to see if the crystals dissolve & form a new crystal form try the Hampton Research Silver Bullets Screen. I have had some very good results with this lately. You can do this with and without seeding. Hope this helps! annie Annie Hassell Glaxo Smithkline 5 Moore Drive RTP, NC 27709 919/483-3228 919/483-0368 (FAX) [EMAIL PROTECTED] "shivesh kumar" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent by: "CCP4 bulletin board" <CCP4BB@JISCMAIL.AC.UK> 14-Oct-2008 07:09 Please respond to "shivesh kumar" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To CCP4BB@JISCMAIL.AC.UK cc Subject [ccp4bb] Crystal growing in one direction...need suggestions Dear all, I have crystallized a protein in MPD which is thin and growing in one direction only.
