In situ X‐ray diffraction is used for exploring Si crystallography and for studying phase‐transformation mechanisms in elemental Si and Na–Si systems. We present original results of hexagonal silicon, Si‐6H and a critical analysis of the past‐decade discoveries of silicon Si‐4H and Si24 using large‐volume high‐pressure techniques.Metastable allotropes ...

l‐threo‐d‐galacto‐Octitol: a curious non‐classical order–disorder polytype with an 88 Å axis
The sugar alcohol l‐threo‐d‐galacto‐octitol crystallizes in a structure with P43212 pseudo‐symmetry and a highly elongated unit cell (c ≈ 88 Å). In distinct layers of the structure, symmetry is broken by an asymmetric hydrogen‐bonding network leading to polytypism, which is discussed in the framework of order–disorder theory.GalC8 [l‐threo‐d‐galacto ...

Diffuse scattering in silver hypodiphosphate, Ag4(P2O6), probed by 3D ED
A 3D ED study of silver hypodiphosphate, Ag4(P2O6), has revealed diffuse scattering and was used to model real structure.The crystal structure of silver hypodiphosphate, Ag4(P2O6), was determined using 3D ED. The average structure is hexagonal, described in the space group P63/mcm, and is isomorphous with the average structure of known Li4(P2S6).

Crystal structure of the plant GABA aminotransferase AtGABA‐T from Arabidopsis thaliana
The crystal structure of A. thaliana γ‐aminobutyric acid aminotransferase (GABA‐T) reveals that plant GABA‐T belongs to the class III aminotransferase family and employs a C‐terminal arginine residue for γ‐aminobutyric acid recognition, in contrast to the N‐terminal arginine used by class II enzymes.γ‐Aminobutyric acid aminotransferase (GABA‐T) is a ...

Crystal structures of A. pernix PCNA1 (1.60 Å resolution) and PCNA2 (2.17 Å resolution) are reported. High‐resolution analysis reveals a rare nonproline cis‐peptide bond in PCNA1 that may cause steric hindrance at the subunit interface, suggesting a distorted or symmetry‐broken heterotrimeric PCNA ring.Aeropyrum pernix is a hyperthermophilic archaeon ...

The ubiquitin‐like domain 2 (Ubl2) of the SARS‐CoV‐2 virus is necessary for the stability and catalytic efficiency of its papain‐like protease (PLpro). Our crystallographic study reveals that the Ubl2 domain exhibits notable flexibility and can adopt a conformation that places itself away from the PLpro catalytic domain, representing a new conformation
