Phasing tiny crystals
For tiny crystals, their diffraction intensities at and between the Bragg peaks become measurable due to the limited number of the unit cells, which can in principle be used to directly phase the crystal structures.
متن کاملTwinned crystals and anomalous phasing.
Merohedral or pseudomerohedral twinning of crystals cannot be identified from inspection of the diffraction patterns. Several methods for the identification of twinning and the estimation of the twin fraction are suitable for macromolecular crystals and all are based on the statistical properties of the measured diffraction intensities. If the crystal twin fraction is estimated and is not too c...
متن کاملMIR phasing using merohedrally twinned crystals.
Merohedral twinning is a crystal-growth disorder that seriously hinders the determination of macromolecular crystal structures by isomorphous replacement. The strategies used in the structures solved so far are discussed. Several methods can be used to determine the extent of twinning, the twin fraction and to detwin the data. Accurate determination of the twin fraction by analysing heavy-atom ...
متن کاملExperimental phasing for structure determination using membrane-protein crystals grown by the lipid cubic phase method
Despite the marked increase in the number of membrane-protein structures solved using crystals grown by the lipid cubic phase or in meso method, only ten have been determined by SAD/MAD. This is likely to be a consequence of the technical difficulties associated with handling proteins and crystals in the sticky and viscous hosting mesophase that is usually incubated in glass sandwich plates for...
متن کاملTiny dancers
A vital step in growth factor-driven angiogenesis is the coordinated engagement of endothelial integrins with the extracellular matrix. The molecular mechanisms that partner growth factors and integrins are being elucidated, revealing an intricate interaction of surface receptors and their signaling pathways.
