“Protein Crystallography is a form of very high-resolution microscopy, which enables scientists to “see” at atomic resolution. It allows us to see beyond the capabilities of even the most powerful light microscope..
What is the wavelength of crystallography?
X-rays range in wavelength from 10 to 0.01 nanometers; a typical wavelength used for crystallography is 1 \xc5 (0.1 nm), which is on the scale of covalent chemical bonds and the radius of a single atom..
The optimum wavelength for protein crystallography is 1.5418A generated by a Cu K-α X-ray.
This paper describes an analysis of the optimum choice of the X-ray wavelength for macromolecular diffraction data collection. It is shown that there is no

The peridinin-chlorophyll-protein complex is a soluble molecular complex consisting of the peridinin-chlorophyll a-protein bound to peridinin, chlorophyll, and lipids. The peridinin molecules absorb light in the blue-green wavelengths and transfer energy to the chlorophyll molecules with extremely high efficiency. PCP complexes are found in many photosynthetic dinoflagellates, in which they may be the primary light-harvesting complexes.
In molecular biology, the PYP domain is a p-coumaric acid-binding protein domain. They are present in various proteins in bacteria.
