Abstract
IN a previous publication1 it was shown that the morphology of chymotrypsinogen crystals was dependent on the super saturation at which they were formed. Particular emphasis was laid on the nucleation mechanism. In the following work evidence is presented which suggests the underlying mechanism of the enzyme crystallization.
