The '''unit cell''' is the smallest portion of a crystal that, when duplicated and translated, can generate the entire crystal. You can '''see the unit cell''' by clicking on the word ''Jmol'' to the lower right of any molecular display in Jmol (which includes most interactive molecular displays in Proteopedia), and then on the menu that appears, Style, then check the Unit Cell checkbox. You can populate the unit cell from Jmol's menu with Symmetry, Reload {1 1 1}.
