Zn ions, for example, are located directly on the rotation axis.

The video dv5020sup5.mp4 shows the "action of symmetry operations on the asymmetric unit," specifically how the atoms move, rotate, or translate. Key Concepts Illustrated in the Video H21(1).mp4

Three of these dimer units are arranged around a threefold rotation axis to form a hexamer, which takes the shape of an oblate spheroid.

The insulin dimer acts as the asymmetric unit within a crystal structure. It is a "giant" unit because it consists of hundreds of atoms.
