I only deposited the high-res apo coordinates, but pdb code 2AU3 was solved
from a thulium soaked crystal. In fact, I also used dysprosium to phase
primase from a different bacterium. Go team lanthanide!

Just because it is not in the PDB does not mean that noone has ever
tried it. I think I can attest to seeing pretty much all the
Lanthanides tried at my beamline. Indeed, Hampton sells a Lanthanide
kit, and I recommend using it as every Lanthanide has a slightly
different ionic radius. For e
Huber's empire in Martinsried had a cabinet with ~500 compounds, many
of them synthesized by himself (occasionally blowing up a lab in the
process...) that in fact contained thorium, hafnium, etc. compounds.
Radioactive compounds were kept in a little lead box. I am not aware
of any success
A perusal of the PDB reveals that the game of Periodic Table bingo still
has eleven rounds to run:
scandium, titanium, germanium, zirconium, niobium, neodymium,
dysprosium, thulium, hafnium, bismuth and thorium remain absent from PDB
entries.
OK, many of these are elements that would rather be re
