Crystal Structure and Compressibility of Ba4Ru3O10

The crystal structure of Ba4Ru3O10 has been determined by single-crystal X-ray di4raction at room pressure. From re5nements to R 5 0.0203 at room temperature and ambient pressure, the material is orthorhombic with space group Cmca (space group No. 64) and has lattice parameters of a 5 5.7762(15) As , b 5 13.271(4) As , and c 5 13.083(3) As . The unit cell thus has a volume of V 5 1002.9(8) As 3...

Compressibility and crystal structure of sillimanite, Al2SiO5, at high pressure

R.T. Downs Department of Geosciences, University of Arizona, Tucson, Arizona 85721, USA Abstract The unit-cell dimensions and crystal structure of sillimanite at various pressures up to 5.29 GPa have been refined from single-crystal X-ray diffraction data. As pressure increases, a and b decrease linearly, whereas c decreases nonlinearly with a slightly positive curvature. The axial compression ...

Structure-cooperativity relationship in ileal bile acid binding proteins

Background: Ileal bile acid binding proteins display different degrees of binding cooperativity. Results: The structure of a low cooperative protein complexed with bile salts was determined. The protein was mutated to enhance its cooperativity. Conclusion: The cooperative binding requires few latch residues that stabilize an H-bond network. Significance: Knowledge of the determinants of coopera...
