Which outcome occurs from rapid molecular aggregation during protein crystallization processes?

A)Decreased protein purity observed
B)Increased ordered crystal contacts
C)Amorphous precipitate forms instead
D)Enhanced X-ray diffraction amplitudes

💡 Explanation

Rapid aggregation drives amorphous precipitate formation because diffusion-limited aggregation overwhelms crystal lattice establishment; therefore a disordered solid forms, rather than ordered crystals favoured via slower balanced growth.
