Dislocation-Actuated Growth and Inhibition of Hexagonal L-Cystine Crystallization at the Molecular Level

Dislocation-Actuated Growth and Inhibition of Hexagonal L-Cystine Crystallization at the Molecular Level

Crystallization of L-cystine is a critical process in the pathogenesis of kidney stone formation in cystinuria, a disorder affecting more than 20 000 individuals in the United States alone. In an effort to elucidate the crystallization of L-cystine and the mode of action of tailored growth inhibitor...
