Abstract
Methods for determining the 3-D structures of proteins. Such a method includes incorporating a compound into a protein crystal such that the compound enhances the activity of the protein crystal to second harmonic generation, illuminating the protein crystal with a sufficiently intense light to cause second harmonic generation by the protein crystal, and detecting a second harmonic generation response produced by the protein crystal that is suitable for protein structure determination by diffraction analysis.
