ABSTRACT
Protein crystallization is a commonly used technique for protein analysis and subsequent drug design. It predicts the three-dimensional arrangement of the constituent amino acids, which in turn indicates the specific biological function of a protein. As discussed in Chapter 1 (Section 1.3), protein crystallization experiments are typically carried out manually in well plates in the laboratory. As a result, these experiments are slow, expensive, and error prone due to the need for repeated human intervention.
