Application of small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) for differentiation between normal and cancerous breast tissues
ABSTRACT Background: Coherent scattering leads to diffraction effects and especially constructive interferences. Theseinterferences carry some information about the molecular structure of the tissue. As breast cancer isthe most widespread cancer in women, this project evaluated the application of small angleX-ray scattering (SAXS) for differentiation between normal and cancerous breast tissues....
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 کاملStudies of Protein Structure in Solution and Protein Folding Using Synchrotron Small-angle X-ray Scattering
Synchrotron small angle x-ray scattering (SAXS) has been applied to the structural study of several biological systems, including the nitrogenase complex, the heat shock cognate protein (hsc70), and lysozyme folding. The structural information revealed from the SAXS experiments is complementary to information obtained by other physical and biochemical methods, and adds to our knowledge and unde...
متن کاملCharacterization of protein fold by wide-angle X-ray solution scattering.
Wide-angle X-ray solution scattering (WAXS) patterns contain substantial information about the three-dimensional structure of a protein. Although WAXS data have far less information than is required for determination of a full three-dimensional structure, the actual amount of information contained in a WAXS pattern has not been carefully quantified. Here we carry out an analysis of the amount o...
متن کاملSmall-angle light and X-ray scattering measurements of a protein-oligosaccharide complex mucin in solution
The molecular assembly and the chain conformation of intact bovine submaxillary mucin (BSM) in solution over wide-ranging concentrations were characterized by using low-angle laser light scattering and small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) methods. The specific refractive index increment of BSM was estimated to be 0.152 ml g 1 and was used to determine the molecular weight of BSM by low-angle las...
