Diffuse X-ray scattering from correlated motions in a protein crystal
Protein motion in crystals causes diffuse X-ray scattering, which so far has been very challenging to measure and interpret. Here the authors present a finely sampled diffuse scattering map from triclinic lysozyme, which allows them to resolve inter- and intramolecular correlations and they further...

| Summary: | Protein motion in crystals causes diffuse X-ray scattering, which so far has been very challenging to measure and interpret. Here the authors present a finely sampled diffuse scattering map from triclinic lysozyme, which allows them to resolve inter- and intramolecular correlations and they further analyze the maps using all-atom molecular dynamics simulations and simple vibrational models, revealing the contribution of internal protein motion. |
