The Macromolecular X-ray Crystallography Core and the Recombinant Protein Production and Characterization Core have merged into a new core, the “Recombinant Protein Production, Characterization, and ...

What is X-Ray Crystallography? X-ray crystallography is a powerful analytical technique used to determine the atomic and molecular structure of crystalline materials. It involves directing a beam of X ...

X-ray crystallography, like mass spectroscopy and nuclear spectroscopy, is an extremely useful material characterization technique that is unfortunately hard for amateurs to perform. The physical ...

When cells divide, replicated chromosomes carrying DNA separate and move to daughter cells. This process of chromosome segregation is essential in all domains of life to ensure each daughter cell ...

An unusual protein structure known as a "rippled beta sheet," first predicted in 1953, has now been created in the laboratory and characterized in detail using x-ray crystallography. The new findings, ...

Arizona State University researcher Petra Fromme has been awarded the 2021 Christian B. Anfinsen Award in honor of her contribution to the field of protein research. She has developed the use of ultra ...

It was Ernst Boris Chain, Alexander Fleming, and Howard Florey who discovered penicillin, but it was Dorothy Hodgkin who, using a method called X-ray crystallography, revealed its structure. X-ray ...

At the heart of the Macromolecular X-ray Crystallography ATC is the “Ultimate Home Lab” from Rigaku Americas, which was configured to provide the highest possible usable flux currently available in a ...

For years, the process of X-ray crystallography has moved at a tortoise's pace. "When I started in the field, it would typically take 20 person-years to produce a complete atomic model of one single ...
