Towards the spatial resolution of metalloprotein charge states by detailed modeling of XFEL crystallographic diffraction. [PDF]
Oxidation states of individual metal atoms within a metalloprotein can be assigned by examining X-ray absorption edges, which shift to higher energy for progressively more positive valence numbers.

Serial crystallography at synchrotrons and X-ray lasers [PDF]
Serial crystallography was developed for the use at free-electron lasers but the approach has recently also been adapted to synchrotron sources. Here we discuss how the synergy between the two X-ray sources will facilitate a wide application of the technique in microcrystallography, room-temperature structure determination and time-resolved studies.

Macromolecular Serial Crystallography (Volume II)
The successful adaptation of the serial macromolecular crystallography approach at most 3rd generation synchrotron facilities allows a fruitful synergy between synchrotrons and XFELs that have accelerated the access and impact of this approach to an even

Time-resolved β-lactam cleavage by L1 metallo-β-lactamase
Metallo-β-lactamases cleave β-lactam moiety of many broadly used antibiotics. Here the authors captured mechanistic details of the enzyme catalyzed reaction using time-resolved xray synchrotron serial crystallography.

Crystal structure of rhodopsin bound to arrestin by femtosecond X-ray laser. [PDF]
G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) signal primarily through G proteins or arrestins. Arrestin binding to GPCRs blocks G protein interaction and redirects signalling to numerous G-protein-independent pathways.

Serial synchrotron and XFEL crystallography for studies of metalloprotein catalysis
An estimated half of all proteins contain a metal, with these being essential for a tremendous variety of biological functions. X-ray crystallography is the major method for obtaining structures at high resolution of these metalloproteins, but there are considerable challenges to obtain intact structures due to the effects of radiation damage.
