Abstract
The program Mercury, developed by the Cambridge Crystallographic Data Centre, is designed primarily as a crystal structure visualization tool. A new module of functionality has been produced, called the Materials Module, which allows highly customizable searching of structural databases for intermolecular interaction motifs and packing patterns. This new module also includes the ability to perform packing similarity calculations between structures containing the same compound. In addition to the Materials Module, a range of further enhancements to Mercury has been added in this latest release, including void visualization and links to ConQuest, Mogul and IsoStar.

Nanobeam precession-assisted 3D electron diffraction reveals a new polymorph of hen egg-white lysozyme

TL;DR: In this paper, the first new protein structure determined by 3D electron diffraction data is presented: a previously unobserved polymorph of hen egg-white lysozyme, which grows as needle-shaped submicrometric crystals simply by vapor diffusion starting from previously reported crystallization conditions.

Preparation and structural, spectroscopic, thermal, and electrochemical characterizations of iron(III) compounds containing dipicolinate and 2-aminopyrimidine or acridine

TL;DR: Two new iron(III) compounds, (Hamp)[Fe(pydc)2] · 2H2O (1) and (Hacr[Fe( pydc2]µ)µ, have been synthesized and their molecular and crystal structures were determined by X-ray crystal structure analysis and their thermal stability by TGA/DTA methods as mentioned in this paper.

COMPACK: a program for identifying crystal structure similarity using distances

TL;DR: In this article, the relative position and orientation of molecules are captured using interatomic distances, which provide a representation of structure that avoids the use of space-group and cell information, and can be used to determine whether two crystal structures are the same to within specified tolerances.
