    The Unitary and analytic model of nucleon electromagnetic structure, describing all existing nucleon form factor data, is briefly reviewed. Then in the framework of this model the problem of inconsistency of older proton electric form factor data in space-like region (obtained from ep% e^{-}p\to e^{-}p process by the Rosenbluth technique) with recent Jefferson Lab data on the ratio GEp(t)/GMp(t)G_{Ep}(t)/G_{Mp}(t) (measured in precise polarization epep\overrightarrow{e}^{-}p\to e^{-}\overrightarrow{p} experiment) is suggested to be solved in favour of the latter data which, however, unlike older data cause an existence of the form factor zero, i.e. a difraction minimum in GEp(t)|G_{Ep}(t)| around t=Q2=13t=-Q^{2}=-13GeV2^{2}. The new behaviour of GEp(t)G_{Ep}(t) with the zero gives modified proton charge distribution with enlarged value of the mean square charge radius.Comment: 9 pages, 11 eps figures.
