Spatiotemporal kinetics in solution studied by time-resolved X-ray liquidography (solution scattering).
Information about temporally varying molecular structure during chemical processes is crucial for understanding the mechanism and function of a chemical reaction. Using ultrashort optical pulses to trigger a reaction in solution and using time-resolved X-ray diffraction (scattering) to interrogate the structural changes in the molecules, time-resolved X-ray liquidography (TRXL) is a direct tool...
متن کاملConformational landscape of cytochrome c folding studied by microsecond-resolved small-angle x-ray scattering.
To investigate protein folding dynamics in terms of compactness, we developed a continuous-flow mixing device to make small-angle x-ray scattering measurements with the time resolution of 160 micros and characterized the radius of gyration (R(g)) of two folding intermediates of cytochrome c (cyt c). The early intermediate possesses approximately 20 A of R(g), which is smaller by approximately 4...
متن کاملInteractions of hydrophobin proteins in solution studied by small-angle X-ray scattering.
Hydrophobins are a group of very surface-active, fungal proteins known to self-assemble on various hydrophobic/hydrophilic interfaces. The self-assembled films coat fungal structures and mediate their attachment to surfaces. Hydrophobins are also soluble in water. Here, the association of hydrophobins HFBI and HFBII from Trichoderma reesei in aqueous solution was studied using small-angle x-ray...
متن کاملDomain conformation of tau protein studied by solution small-angle X-ray scattering.
Tau is one of the two main proteins involved in the pathology of Alzheimer's disease via formation of beta-sheet rich intracellular aggregates named paired helical filaments (PHFs). Given that tau is a natively unfolded protein with no folded core (even upon binding to physiological partners such as microtubules), its structural analysis by high-resolution techniques has been difficult. In this...
متن کاملConformational Substates of Myoglobin Intermediate Resolved by Picosecond X-ray Solution Scattering
Conformational substates of proteins are generally considered to play important roles in regulating protein functions, but an understanding of how they influence the structural dynamics and functions of the proteins has been elusive. Here, we investigate the structural dynamics of sperm whale myoglobin associated with the conformational substates using picosecond X-ray solution scattering. By a...
