Translation calibration of inverse-kappa goniometers in macromolecular crystallography
Precise and convenient crystal reorientation is of experimental importance in macromolecular crystallography (MX). The development of multi-axis goniometers, such as the ESRF/EMBL mini-κ, necessitates the corresponding development of calibration procedures that can be used for the setup, maintenance and troubleshooting of such devices. While traditional multi-axis goniometers require all rotati...
متن کاملMacromolecular Crystallography at Chess
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...
متن کاملThe role of validation in macromolecular crystallography.
The importance of validation techniques in X-ray structure determination and their relation to refinement procedures are discussed, with particular reference to atomic resolution structures. The requirements of deposition and publication, and the role of validation tools in this are analysed. The need for a rigorously defined file format is emphasized.
متن کاملStrategies for macromolecular synchrotron crystallography.
Introduction During the past ten years the rate of protein structure determination by X-ray crystallography has risen about tenfold [1]. The use of synchrotron radiation was instrumental for this growth and the fraction of the results obtained this way increased from 28% in 1990 to 80% in 1999 (Figure 1). There are 52 synchrotron stations worldwide used for macromolecular crystallography, and t...
