The solubility of lysozyme in salt solution decreased by a factor of $\sim 4$ when confined in cubic phase. Calculations and Monte Carlo simulations show that this can be explained by the {\it confinement} of lysozyme molecules to the narrow water cells in the cubic phase.4 pages, 5 figuresSoft Condensed MatterBiomoleculesProtein crystallization in confined geometriestext
