Appraising protein conformational changes by resampling time-resolved serial x-ray crystallography data [PDF]
With the development of serial crystallography at both x-ray free electron laser and synchrotron radiation sources, time-resolved x-ray crystallography is increasingly being applied to study conformational changes in macromolecules.

Spitrobot-2 advances time-resolved cryo-trapping crystallography to under 25 ms [PDF]
We previously introduced the spitrobot, a protein crystal plunging system that enables reaction quenching via cryo-trapping with a time resolution in the millisecond range.

Time-resolved crystallography using the Hadamard transform. [PDF]
We describe a method for performing time-resolved X-ray crystallographic experiments based on the Hadamard transform, in which time resolution is defined by the underlying periodicity of the probe pulse sequence, and signal/noise is greatly improved over that for the fastest pump-probe experiments depending on a single pulse.

Millisecond cryo-trapping by the spitrobot crystal plunger simplifies time-resolved crystallography [PDF]
We introduce the spitrobot, a protein crystal plunger, enabling reaction quenching via cryo-trapping with a time-resolution in the millisecond range. Protein crystals are mounted on canonical micromeshes on an electropneumatic piston, where the crystals ...

Photoswitching mechanism of a fluorescent protein revealed by time-resolved crystallography and transient absorption spectroscopy [PDF]
rsEGFP2 is a reversibly photoswitchable fluorescent protein used in super-resolution light microscopy. Here the authors present the structure of an rsEGFP2 ground-state intermediate after excited state-decay that was obtained by nanosecond time-resolved ...

Hemoprotein time‐resolved X‐ray crystallography [PDF]
AbstractIn the last decade the role of structural dynamics in controlling protein function was actively investigated using new and advanced experimental approaches. In particular, time resolved crystallography, despite some practical difficulties, is being used extensively to complement the study of protein structure‐function relationships with ...

Filling data analysis gaps in time-resolved crystallography by machine learning [PDF]
There is a growing understanding of the structural dynamics of biological molecules fueled by x-ray crystallography experiments. Time-resolved serial femtosecond crystallography (TR-SFX) with x-ray Free Electron Lasers allows the measurement of ultrafast

Serial synchrotron crystallography for time-resolved structural biology [PDF]
The current state-of-the-art experiments in time-resolved structural biology are undoubtedly the recent extremely impressive results that are emerging from XFEL-based experiments. However, there is a large range of macromolecular systems where the biological interest is predominantly in the slower dynamics (μs-s), that produce well diffracting ...

Time-Resolved Single-Crystal X-Ray Crystallography [PDF]
In this chapter the development of time-resolved crystallography is traced from its beginnings more than 30 years ago. The importance of being able to “watch” chemical processes as they occur rather than just being limited to three-dimensional pictures of the reactant and final product is emphasised, and time-resolved crystallography provides the ...

Analysis of the HindIII-catalyzed reaction by time-resolved crystallography. [PDF]
In order to investigate the mechanism of the reaction catalyzed by HindIII, structures of HindIII–DNA complexes with varying durations of soaking time in cryoprotectant buffer containing manganese ions were determined by the freeze-trap method. In the crystal structures of the complexes obtained after soaking for a longer duration, two manganese ions ...
