- Letter from Dr. Robert B. Corey, Caltech, to Dr. Otto K. Behrens, Director, Biochemical Research Division, Eli Lilly Research Laboratories, RE: Will be interested to hear about Dr. Davisson's results in effort to produce glucagon crystals suitable for x-ray photography. Believes that the experienced personnel at Lilly Research Laboratories are more likely to be successful in growing the crystals than if Corey and his associates tried it at Caltech. Will later be desirable to grow crystals containing glucagon together with heavy ions; perhaps Caltech personnel might take on that job. Requests one or two grams of a well-characterized preparation of pure insulin for use in the growth of suitable crystals. This would be used in efforts to determine the complete structure of insulin.
