Ultrafast X - ray Studies of Structural Dynamics
C20 of molecular structures for C70Br10 or C60Cl24, which have been later confirmed by X-ray crystallography (partially with the use of synchrotron radiation). For the mixture of two compounds with known X-ray structures, C60Cl28 and C60Cl30, the experimental IR spectra were interpreted by comparison with the calculated ones using subtle differences for compounds possessing very similar structu...
متن کاملX-ray structural studies of some metalloproteins
Metalloproteins are an important class of proteins and perform a variety of biological processes. They are ideally suited for Synchrotron Radiation studies. In particular, X-ray region of the spectrum has been very effectively exploited not only for crystallographic structure determinations but X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) and more recently X-ray solution scattering techniques have al...
متن کاملThe Birnavirus Crystal Structure Reveals Structural Relationships among Icosahedral Viruses
Double-stranded RNA virions are transcriptionally competent icosahedral particles that must translocate across a lipid bilayer to function within the cytoplasm of the target cell. Birnaviruses are unique among dsRNA viruses as they have a single T = 13 icosahedral shell, lacking the characteristic inner capsid observed in the others. We determined the crystal structures of the T = 1 subviral pa...
متن کاملStructural studies of spherical viruses.
Tomato bushy stunt virus (TBSV) is probably the most suitable of the simple viruses for atomic resolution structure analysis. It is built from 180 copies of a coat protein subunit (Mw 41,000) and a single piece of RNA (MW 1.5 X 106) (1-3). There may also be a single copy of a large internal protein (MW 87,000) (a). The coat subunits form a T=3 icosahedral surface lattice. The symmetry of this l...
متن کاملSp5-a the Challenge of X-ray Free-electron Lasers Structural Studies with X-ray Lasers
The history of the living world can be summarised as an elaboration of ever more perfect eyes within a Cosmos in which there is always something new to be seen (Teilhard du Chardin, 1955). Today, the bottleneck in the atomic resolution imaging of biological systems is a fundamental need for crystals. This limits the scope of detailed structural analysis to macromolecules and macromolecular asse...
