Microcrystal manipulation with laser tweezers
X-ray crystallography is the method of choice to deduce atomic resolution structural information from macromolecules. In recent years, significant investments in structural genomics initiatives have been undertaken to automate all steps in X-ray crystallography from protein expression to structure solution. Robotic systems are widely used to prepare crystallization screens and change samples on...
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...
متن کاملInstrumentation for synchrotron-radiation macromolecular crystallography.
X-ray diffraction is an extremely important tool for structure determination of biological macromolecules, to the extent that currently around 85% of Protein Data Bank entries result from X-ray measurements. Many of these structure determinations use synchrotron radiation for data collection. This article aims to give synchrotron users an overview of the functioning of a synchrotron beamline an...
متن کاملSerial crystallography using synchrotron radiation
A brief history is given of how X-ray diffraction data from crystals have been recorded. Today there are new possibilities, spawned by the availability of free electron lasers that produce powerful femtosecond long X-ray pulses.
متن کاملMix-and-diffuse serial synchrotron crystallography
Unravelling the interaction of biological macromolecules with ligands and substrates at high spatial and temporal resolution remains a major challenge in structural biology. The development of serial crystallography methods at X-ray free-electron lasers and subsequently at synchrotron light sources allows new approaches to tackle this challenge. Here, a new polyimide tape drive designed for mix...
