Best practices for cryo‐trapping time‐resolved crystallography with the Spitrobot crystal plunger
Abstract Capturing meta‐stable conformations of enzymes and ligand complexes demands structural snapshots beyond static crystal structures. While time‐resolved serial crystallography at room temperature offers a time‐resolution down to the femto‐second domain, it requires large amounts of micro crystals, specialized beamlines, and considerable ...
