Reprints on Crystal Structures

A collection of seventeen reprinted papers, and one typescript, most bearing Crick's initials, maintained together as a working reference file. All are unmarked unless indicated.

Note: one reprinted paper - Magdoff, Crick and Luzzati (1956), "The three-dimensional Patterson function of ribonuclease II" - has been removed from the file and placed together with Crick's other reprinted papers (see PP/CRI/I/1/9).

The file comprises the following reprinted papers:

5. E J Ambrose, C H Bamford, A Elliott, and W E Hanby (1951), "Water-soluble silk: an alpha-protein";

6. Linus Pauling and Robert B Corey (in two parts, 1951 and 1952), "The structure of proteins" (annotated on p. 736);
