Protein Crystallization: Introduction
Protein crystallization is the process of creating a structured and ordered lattice for a complex form of protein, inhibiting molecule denaturation. It is used in medicinal biochemistry and structural biology for drug development along with formulation, separation, and purification of protein therapeutics. Protein crystallization is a brilliant alternative to chromatography and other purification methods as it helps in creating pure and contamination free protein.Protein crystallization is dependent on a specific pH, temperature, and chemical additives. It is applied in a variety of methods, including X-Ray crystallography, cryogenic electron microscopy, NMR spectroscopy, small-angle X-ray scattering, as well as neutron diffraction.
Global Protein Crystallization Market Analysis
With the COVID-19 outbreak, research in protein therapeutics, drug discovery and design has experienced a sudden growth. The development and demand for innovation in protein crystallization techniques has also grown, since it is an essential element of protein therapeutics and drug development. Protein based therapeutics are projected to take half space in the list of top ten most selling drugs in 2024 . This indicates protein crystallization market growth in the future as well.There has been some significant research in the protein crystallization domain to bring accurate, economical and rapid results. MIT engineers have invented a new approach that uses specialized nanoparticles to crystallize the protein fast and at much cheaper prices. According to their findings, bioconjugate-coated nanoparticles accelerated protein crystallization process, reducing the induction time by seven folds. As we progress into the future, we can expect more significant and relevant improvements in the market.
Governments and research organisations are heavily investing in protein crystallization market research as it is relevant in multiple techniques like cryo-electron microscopy, NMR spectroscopy and others. So, with any development in these techniques, we can expect a growth in the protein crystallization market as well.

Global Protein Crystallization Market Overview
The North American region has led the global market share for protein crystallization. This can be attributed to the extensive investments in research and development by both government and healthcare corporations. The presence of key innovators in the area has propelled significant growth in the market.The protein crystallization market demand is anticipated to peak in the Asia Pacific region during the forecast period, with increasing investments and research in the healthcare and biotechnological industry. For instance, Tokyo Institute of Technology has recently developed a new cell-free protein crystallization (CFPC) method. This enables the study of unstable and low-yield proteins that could not be studied with the help of usual methods. This opens a new spectrum of further development and growth in the field, indicating possible development in the Asia Pacific region.
