The Macromolecular Crystallography group of the HZB is operating three beamlines for macromolecular crystallography. These beamlines are in operation since 2003 and serve the MX community of Germany and surrounding countries. The beamlines cater to all possible experiments in MX. Two of the beamlines are remotely available, while the third beamline, being more experimental in nature, can only be accessed on site.
