Since structure correlates well with function, look for new ways to probe the complex structure of proteins in order to understand what they do and how they do it. One of the most powerful techniques in existence today is X-ray crystallography. The main difficulty with this technique is getting the protein to crystallize. Here we see a crystallized integral protein embedded in the plasma membrane. Knowing what you do about how to read amino acids L>R, if you were reading off the sequence of amino acids in the figure shown, what should the first three letters be? A. M-N-G B. A-P-A C. It does not matter, since the protein has no polarity or directionality.
