Protein flexibility linked to severity of Lou Gerhig’s disease

SAXS and MX data collected at SIBYLS enabled insights into protein flexibility in one of the proteins involved in Lou Gerigh’s disease. The results were recently published in PNAS and have been highlighted by [Today At Berkeley Lab](http://newscenter.lbl.gov/2014/10/13/berkeley-lab-and-scripps-research-institute-scientists-link-als-progression-to-increased-protein-instability/) and and [Daily Cal](http://www.dailycal.org/2014/10/16/berkeley-lab-scripps-institute-propose-cause-als/). >Protein framework alterations in heritable Cu, Zn superoxide dismutase (SOD) mutants cause misassembly…
