The fluctuating ribosome: thermal molecular dynamics characterized by neutron scattering
Conformational changes associated with ribosome function have been identified by X-ray crystallography and cryo-electron microscopy. These methods, however, inform poorly on timescales. Neutron scattering is well adapted for direct measurements of thermal molecular dynamics, the 'lubricant' for the conformational fluctuations required for biological activity. The method was applied to compare w...
متن کاملThermal denaturation of DNA studied with neutron scattering.
The melting transition of DNA, whereby the strands of the double-helix structure completely separate at a certain temperature, has been characterized using neutron scattering. A Bragg peak from B-form fiber DNA has been measured as a function of temperature, and its widths and integrated intensities have been interpreted using the Peyrard-Bishop-Dauxois model with only one free parameter. The e...
متن کاملApplications of Phonon Extinction Rules for Inelastic Neutron Scattering and Thermal Diffuse Scattering Experiments
The determination of crystal phonon frequencies through experiments of coherent inelastic neutron scattering is now a rather standard technique in solid state physics which, in principle, allow the determination of the phonon spectra. However, a proper interpretation of the results and/or an unambiguous comparison with theoretical predictions requires in many cases additional information on the...
متن کاملSmall angle neutron scattering
Small Angle Neutron Scattering (SANS) is a technique that enables to probe the 3-D structure of materials on a typical size range lying from ∼ 1 nm up to ∼ a few 100 nm, the obtained information being statistically averaged on a sample whose volume is ∼ 1 cm3. This very rich technique enables to make a full structural characterization of a given object of nanometric dimensions (radius of gyrati...
متن کاملNeutron Scattering Technique
Neutron scattering technique is the most modern method of sampling the dynamics and structural properties of molecular systems. Neutrons interact with atoms via nuclear which has nuclear forces that are very short ranged. For this reason, neutrons can better penetrate into sample matter and obtain the information that would have been able to by other methods, such as x-rays. In this paper, we s...
