There are a lot of methods to determine the structure of protein, but the most suitable is x-ray dissection. Generally speaking, x-ray crystallography includes protein crystallography as a small, but so significant segment. The protein is quite complex matter that has triple structure, but it's found out just after the study of the secondary structure of protein. On the basis of crystallography the quaternary structure of protein can be described. Many different factors can affect the studying of protein structure. Folding of protein is the main structural characteristic of protein molecule. According to all theories, all information about protein folding is stored in the protein basic texture, or in protein sequence, that is why it is necessary to begin any protein function research from determination of succession of protein. When the ground of protein is completely learned, there will be an opportunity to define lots of different properties of protein as classification of protein, protein role etc. and just learn more about classification of protein. Despite our progress in these studies, the basic protein problem can't be worked out yet. It is impossible to define how the structure of protein is connected to its primary texture. For very little, which called peptides, this problem is worked out. Scientists achieve success in the sphere of peptides. Thanks to the modern technologies we have got a chance to fulfill the peptide synthesis action.

Lately, the protein crystallography forum has taken place. All the data, successes, problems of crystallography of protein can be searched out in the CCP4 Bulletin Board. Those stocks of CCP4BB comprise all CCP4BB messages with valuable information about almost all subjects in crystallography.
