We characterize the formation of a ferryl state of a dye‐decolourizing peroxidase by drop‐on‐chip serial femtosecond crystallography and also the modulation of the heme redox state using dose‐resolved serial synchrotron crystallography.Metalloenzymes containing a heme cofactor catalyse a wide range of oxidative reactions critical to life. Understanding

Flavodiiron proteins (FDPs) are di‐iron enzymes that reduce NO and/or O2 with distinct substrate selectivity. We have produced E. coli FDP variants targeting second coordination‐sphere residues and determined their structures. Although the kinetics remained unchanged, the E.

Optimal 1TEL–target protein linker character is target protein‐dependent
In this study, we examine the effect of short to medium‐length flexible, semi‐flexible and rigid linkers on the crystallization of a DARPin or the TNK1 UBA domain fused to the 1TEL protein crystallization chaperone, demonstrating that while rigid linkers can impair crystallization and reduce diffraction quality, the ideal linker character remains ...

This manuscript investigates the X‐ray‐induced radiolysis of the catalytic C5‐peroxide adduct in urate oxidase crystals, utilizing a top‐hat X‐ray beam to monitor peroxide occupancy across extensive dose series at both 100 K and room temperature. The study reveals a kinetic phase transition where the peroxide decays rapidly via zero‐order kinetics at ...

Cryo‐EM reveals ArnA contamination during purification of a ciliary protein complex
ArnA contamination was independently observed during the purification of a soluble, low‐yield protein complex, leading to an unintended 3.23 Å resolution cryo‐EM structure. This work broadens recent findings and highlights ArnA as a recurrent His‐tag‐associated contaminant in Escherichia coli purification workflows.Endogenous Escherichia coli proteins ...
