Direct observation of bunching of elementary steps on protein crystals under forced flow conditions

Bunching of elementary steps by solution flow is still not yet clarified for protein crystals. Hence, in this study, we observed elementary steps on crystal surfaces of model protein hen egg-white lysozyme (HEWL) under forced flow conditions, by our advanced optical microscopy. We found that in the...
