Anaerobic SEC-MALS-SAXS at the SIBYLS beamline of the Advanced Light Source probes the conformational states behind electron bifurcation in the Thermotoga maritima EtfABCX, revealing insights on mechanisms at the thermodynamic limits of life. Shown are the bifurcation- and electron-conducting-like states experimentally observed for the first time in solution. View the article.
For X-ray scattering and other structures in the areas of DNA replication, repair, and cancer biology, this is your last opportunity to apply to join the 6th DNA Repair/Replication Structures and Cancer Conference (DRRSC) chaired by John Tainer and Xiaodong Zhang. The conference focuses on mechanisms and structures including dynamic states. This is a biannual conference in Cancun 14…

Using small angle x-ray scattering data collected at the SIBYLS beamline and a computer-based approach, researchers designed porous protein crystals that were revealed to be stable, tunable, and atomically accurate. The work provides a powerful new platform for biological materials engineering and opens up wide applications in biotechnology and medicine. Read more here.
