Crystal Protein Order Form

Please note we are on vacation Tuesday September 7 through Friday the 10th. For urgent matters, please contact our office manager at (866)770-8051.


Here's the place to describe your protein model.  This form gives some of the popular options, and we'll be in touch with a quote, and maybe a few questions, when we receive it.  If the form doesn't serve your purpose, please write or call (831)421-0677.


1.  What structure would you like to draw?

PDB ID: or upload PDB file here: (50 MB file size limit)


2.  How to draw it?  The setup charge ($115) covers any combination of these styles:

Backbone style example

Backbone
Trace the alpha carbons with line segments or a smooth spline.

Wireframe style example

Wireframe
Each bond is a line segment. 

Ribbon style example

Ribbon
A ribbon whose width varies with the curvature.

Cartoon style example

Cartoon
Curved arrows show each helix and sheet, with thin coils connecting them.

Sphere style example

Spheres
Accents for significant atoms, such as metal ions.

Space-Filling style example

Space-Filling
Spheres for each atom are united to form a volume.

Which parts of the structure should be drawn in which style? 

A picture is worth a thousand words.  If you have a screen shot showing the orientation and appearance you'd like, please upload it here:


3.  What size and shape should the glass be?

These are the most popular shapes we stock — more sizes and shapes are available!  Each can be used in either portrait or landscape orientation.  Some may suit your structure better than others; we're happy to advise.

4.  How many pieces?     Quantities over 10 may qualify for discounts.


5.  Options

Surface style example

Does your model have a molecular surface? ($45)   

Surfaces may cover part or all of the protein.  They are translucent, so the structure within can be seen clearly; this can be a remarkably beautiful effect.


How about a text legend? ($20)

Add a name, occasion, PDB code, or message.  How much text will fit depends on how large your block is: usually a few words to a few lines. 

Text to add:


Square Stand

A lighted display stand?    

These set off the structure with a light bright enough for daytime/office viewing. They have a polished black finish, with white LEDs that stay cool and don't use much power. 

Stands are available to fit most blocks in most orientations, $20 to $45 depending on size.


6.  Need anything else?  We handle all kinds of special requests.


7.  Lastly, your contact info:

Name

Phone

   Email 

Deadline for this project, if any (If "ASAP", please also specify a date if possible.)

If you're uploading files above, this form may take a minute or two to respond.  Please remain calm and let it finish uploading.
