Macromolecular Crystallography for Synthetic Abiological Molecules: Combining xMDFF and PHENIX for Structure Determination of Cyanostar Macrocycles.
Crystal structure determination has long provided insight into structure and bonding of small molecules. When those same small molecules are designed to come together in multimolecular assemblies, such as in coordination cages, supramolecular architectures and organic-based frameworks, their crystallographic characteristics closely resemble biological macromolecules. This resemblance suggests t...
متن کاملRecent developments in phasing and structure refinement for macromolecular crystallography.
Central to crystallographic structure solution is obtaining accurate phases in order to build a molecular model, ultimately followed by refinement of that model to optimize its fit to the experimental diffraction data and prior chemical knowledge. Recent advances in phasing and model refinement and validation algorithms make it possible to arrive at better electron density maps and more accurat...
متن کاملMacromolecular Structure Determination: Comparison of Crystallography and NMR
Most biological macromolecules function correctly only if they are folded into their proper or ‘native’ shape. To fully understand the details of how a molecule functions, one must first know its structure in as much detail as possible. The discovery of X-rays by Röntgen at the end of the nineteenth century was rapidly followed by their use for exploring the structures of crystals by von Laue a...

CHESS activity report F many years, most synchrotron stations for crystallography, such as CHESS A1, used X-ray sensitive film as the primary detector and xray radiation at about 8 keV (1.5 Å). Two years ago CHESS constructed station F1 on a wiggler line that is tuneable from about 7-14 keV. In practice, this station operates with a standard energy of 0.91 Å. The benefits of using higher energi...
متن کاملData Processing in Macromolecular Crystallography
Data processing in macromolecular crystallography is the effort by which a user converts a set of raw diffraction data into a list of Bragg reflections with measured intensities. With modern crystallographic hardware the raw data consists of a set of twodimensional detector images, each collected at a particular orientation of the crystal. Data processing may be broken down into four steps: cal...
