L'utilisation des basses températures, outre qu'elle protège l'enzyme de la destruction par rayonnement, ralentit suffisamment la réaction enzymatique pour qu'on puisse la suivre par cristallographie aux rayons X. [les] résultats ne sont que des préliminaires, et la résolution est encore trop modeste pour que cette photographie «instantanée» d’une enzyme en action soit la clé de la connaissance des réactions enzymatiques. Il reste vrai que ces études de cryocristallographie pourront apporter des éléments d’information [...] 2, record 1, French, - cryocristallographie
