The preparation of single crystals suitable for X-ray analysis is frequently the most difficult step in structural studies of proteins.With the aid of two examples, it is shown that de novo solution of the crystallographic phase problem can be achieved at l ...
Here, the crystallization and initial phasing of the C-terminal domain of human KIN17, a 45 kDa protein mainly expressed in response to ionizing radiation and overexpressed in certain tumour cell lines, are reported. Crystals diffracting to 1.4 Å resolutio ...
X-ray diffraction is used to study the binding of xenon and krypton to a variety of crystallised proteins: porcine pancreatic elastase; subtilisin Carlsberg from Bacillus licheniformis; cutinase from Fusarium solani; collagenase from Hypoderma lineatum; he ...
X-ray induced anisotropic variations of cell parameters in porcine pancreatic elastase (PPE) were used in a multi-Pawley refinement in order to improve the deconvolution of overlapping peaks occurring in the high-angle region of the powder pattern. The ben ...
A technique has been developed that allows determination of the concentration profiles of colloidal solutions or any kind of fluid under confinement. Currently, submicrometre-wide channels are sampled with a resolution in the 10 nm range. The method compri ...
Polarized fluorescence spectra were recorded in the vicinity of the Se and Br K edges on crystals of the selenated protein aldose reductase in complex with a brominated inhibitor molecule. The X-ray absorption, refraction and resonant scattering tensors as ...
This paper presents a survey of developments in de novo phasing methods and instrumentation in protein crystallography that have been carried out over the past 20 years at the French synchrotron radiation facility LURE. This includes progress in detector t ...
The experimental electron density obtained from a multipole refinement of the synchrotron X-ray data for the title complex, together with theoretical ab initio calculations of the electron density at the molecular geometry obtained from neutron diffraction ...
Reactions designed to give Se6[Sb(OTeF5)6]2 by the reaction of Se2Br2, 4Se, and 2Ag[Sb(OTeF5)6] lead to products that include [Ag2(Se6)(SO2)2][Sb(OTeF5)6]2 (1). The distorted cubic (Ag2Se6+2)n consists of a Se6 mol. bicapped by two silver cations (local D3 ...
In this paper the anisotropy of anomalous scattering at the Br K-absorption edge in brominated nucleotides is investigated, and it is shown that this effect can give rise to a marked directional dependence of the anomalous signal strength in X-ray diffract ...
