Morpheus
A 96 condition protein crystallization screen with original chemistry incorporating a range of low molecular weight ligands found ordered in more than 33000 PDB structures. Developed and utilized in the world-renowned Laboratory of Molecular Biology, (Cambridge, UK) – Morpheus® carries on the tradition of being original and dynamic. This unique screen aims to unlock novel chemical space previously inaccessible using conventional screens.
An IUCr Webinar describing the formulation of the Morpheus® screens is available here, as well as a webinar describing the four-corner method for optimizing crystals obtained in Morpheus® conditions. The kit is presented as a 96 condition screen.
