Electron crystallography of ultrathin 3D protein crystals: atomic model with charges.
Membrane proteins and macromolecular complexes often yield crystals too small or too thin for even the modern synchrotron X-ray beam. Electron crystallography could provide a powerful means for structure determination with such undersized crystals, as protein atoms diffract electrons four to five orders of magnitude more strongly than they do X-rays. Furthermore, as electron crystallography yie...
متن کاملElectron 3D crystallography of protein crystals for visualization of charges
Electron crystallography has the potential to analyze crystals of membrane proteins and macromolecular complexes too small or too thin for X-ray crystallography, as electrons are scattered 4 5 orders of magnitude more strongly than X-rays. Electron crystallography yields Coulomb potential maps, rather than electron density maps as X-rays do, providing information on charged states of amino-acid...
متن کاملAtomic electron tomography: 3D structures without crystals.
Crystallography has been fundamental to the development of many fields of science over the last century. However, much of our modern science and technology relies on materials with defects and disorders, and their three-dimensional (3D) atomic structures are not accessible to crystallography. One method capable of addressing this major challenge is atomic electron tomography. By combining advan...
متن کاملElectron Density Distributions and Atomic Charges *
Accurate electron densities and X-ray form factors of Li, Be, F and their ions have been calculated. Electron correlation, crystal fields and ionic charge transfer change the form factors by up to a few percent, mainly in the range of sin 0 /k < | Ä " 1 . Although electron correlation and crystal fields are small perturbations, their effects on the density and form factor are not additive. Dens...
متن کاملElectron Crystallography of Two-Dimensional Crystals of Membrane Proteins.
Electron microscopy has become a powerful technique, along with X-ray crystallography and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, to study the three-dimensional structure of biological molecules. It has evolved into a number of methods dealing with a wide range of biological samples, with electron crystallography of two-dimensional crystals being so far the only method allowing data collection...
