The crystals that form are frozen in liquid nitrogen and taken to the synchrotron which is a highly powered tunable x-ray source. They are mounted on a goniometer and hit with a beam of x-rays. Data is collected as the crystal is rotated through a series of angles. The angle depends on the symmetry of the crystal.

Proteins are among the many biological molecules that are used for x-ray Crystallography studies. They are involved in many pathways in biology, often catalyzing reactions by increasing the reaction rate. Most scientists use x-ray Crystallography to solve the structures of protein and to determine functions of residues, interactions with substrates, and interactions with other proteins or nucleic acids. Proteins can be co - crystallized with these substrates, or they may be soaked into the crystal after crystallization.
Figure 9: Top Left) This is the structure of APS Kinase co - crystallized with ligands ADP and APS created via pymol by an undergrad working in the Structural Biology lab at UC Davis; Bottom right) This is the mutant overlay of APS kinase. The teal is the wild - type and the lime green is the mutant. D63 (from the wild-type) is mutated to asparagine.
