Serial femtosecond crystallography. [PDF]

open access: yesNat Rev Methods Primers, 2022
With the advent of X-ray Free Electron Lasers (XFELs), new, high-throughput serial crystallography techniques for macromolecular structure determination have emerged. Serial femtosecond crystallography (SFX) and related methods provide possibilities beyond canonical, single-crystal rotation crystallography by mitigating radiation damage and allowing ...

Chemical crystallography by serial femtosecond X-ray diffraction [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 2022
AbstractInorganic–organic hybrid materials represent a large share of newly reported structures, owing to their simple synthetic routes and customizable properties1. This proliferation has led to a characterization bottleneck: many hybrid materials are obligate microcrystals with low symmetry and severe radiation sensitivity, interfering with the ...

Serial femtosecond crystallography: A revolution in structural biology [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 2016
Macromolecular crystallography at synchrotron sources has proven to be the most influential method within structural biology, producing thousands of structures since its inception. While its utility has been instrumental in progressing our knowledge of structures of molecules, it suffers from limitations such as the need for large, well-diffracting ...

Liquid sample delivery techniques for serial femtosecond crystallography [PDF]

open access: yesPhilosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2014
X-ray free-electron lasers overcome the problem of radiation damage in protein crystallography and allow structure determination from micro- and nanocrystals at room temperature. To ensure that consecutive X-ray pulses do not probe previously exposed crystals, the sample needs to be replaced with the X-ray repetition rate, which ranges from 120 Hz at ...

Lipidic cubic phase injector facilitates membrane protein serial femtosecond crystallography [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications, 2014
Lipidic cubic phase (LCP) crystallization has proven successful for high-resolution structure determination of challenging membrane proteins. Here we present a technique for extruding gel-like LCP with embedded membrane protein microcrystals, providing a continuously renewed source of material for serial femtosecond crystallography. Data collected from

Structure of the Angiotensin Receptor Revealed by Serial Femtosecond Crystallography [PDF]

open access: yesCell, 2015
Angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT(1)R) is a G protein-coupled receptor that serves as a primary regulator for blood pressure maintenance. Although several anti-hypertensive drugs have been developed as AT(1)R blockers (ARBs), the structural basis for AT(1)R ligand-binding and regulation has remained elusive, mostly due to the difficulties of growing ...
