Dear Colleagues, The paper http://dx.doi.org/10.1107/S0108768185002233 in work led by Howard Einspahr undertaken at SRS 7.2 is a protein structural specific result from synchrotron radiation. The MAD method of course yielded totally specific to SR protein crystal structures. The conceptualisation goes further back than Herzenberg and Lau namely to Okaya and Pepinsky 1956. The seleno met approach of Wayne Hendrickson I believe was however the major breakthrough. Best wishes, John
