چکیده

A program package ATSAS 2.1 for small angle X-ray and neutron scattering data analysis is presented. The programs included in the package cover major processing and interpretation steps from primary data reduction to three-dimensional modeling methods. This system is primarily oriented towards the analysis of biological macromolecules, but could also be used for non-biological isotropic and partially ordered objects (nanoparticle systems, colloidal solutions, polymers in solution and bulk). Recent developments in the programs included in ATSAS 2.1 are highlighted. The major programs are running on multiple hardware platforms including Windows PC, Linux RedHat and Suse, DEC Alpha, SGI IRIX and Mac OSX.

ATSAS 2.1 – towards automated and web- supported small-angle scattering data analysis

Small-angle scattering (SAS) is frequently employed for screening large numbers of samples and for studying these samples under different conditions, including spaceand time-resolved analysis. These measurements produce immense amounts of data, especially on modern high-flux and high-brilliance sources (e.g. third-generation synchrotrons). In biological SAS, like highthroughput macromolecular c...

Deciphering conformational transitions of proteins by small angle X-ray scattering and normal mode analysis.

Structural flexibility and conformational rearrangements are often related to important functions of biological macromolecules, but the experimental characterization of such transitions with high-resolution techniques is challenging. At a lower resolution, small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) can be used to obtain information on biomolecular shapes and transitions in solution. Here, we present S...
