Radiation damage in macromolecular crystals is not suppressed even at 90 K. This is particularly true for covalent bonds involving an anomalous scatterer (such as bromine) at the `peak wavelength'. It is shown that a series of absorption spectra recorded o ...
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 ...
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 ...
