Outline of Final Research Achievements

We developed an automated data collection and processing system for multiple microcrystals to allow structure analyses of challenging targets that do not produce crystals large enough to collect complete data from single crystals. The workflow of data collection and processing for microcrystals was first established and automated. The system was tested using various protein samples obtained via collaborations. The data collection and processing, and generation of graphical report were automated. This system dramatically reduced time and human effort that spent after crystallization.
