Acoustic levitation and rotation of thin films and their application for room temperature protein crystallography

Michal W. Kepa et al.

Summary: Acoustic levitation plays a crucial role in chemical and biochemical analysis, but loading high viscosity samples is challenging. By using polymer thin films as sample holders and studying their acoustic levitation and rotation, it is possible to achieve controlled rotation and positional stability for the samples.

Probing ligand binding of endothiapepsin by 'temperature-resolved' macromolecular crystallography

Chia Ying Huang et al.

Summary: Continuous developments in cryogenic X-ray crystallography have provided us with most of our understanding of 3D protein structures. However, the use of cryogenic temperatures may result in fictitious structures, limiting our knowledge of protein dynamics. In this study, a room-temperature X-ray crystallographic method was developed to capture structural snapshots under physiological conditions, revealing surprising binding discrepancies and capturing multiple binding poses and their interactions with DMSO. This opens up new prospects for structure determination and interpretation at physiological temperatures.

Fixed-target serial crystallography at the Structural Biology Center

Darren A. Sherrell et al.

Summary: Serial synchrotron crystallography is a method for studying protein structures using data collected from thousands of crystals at physiological temperature and reduced radiation damage. The Structural Biology Center used a new 3D-printed mesh-holder approach to optimize sample handling. By applying this system, two types of β-lactamases were successfully studied.

Polyimide mesh-based sample holder with irregular crystal mounting holes for fixed-target serial crystallography

Ki Hyun Nam et al.

Summary: Serial crystallography (SX) enables determination of macromolecule structure at room temperature with minimal radiation damage and visualization of molecular dynamics. The use of a polyimide mesh-based sample holder with irregularly shaped holes can increase random crystal orientation on the sample holder, leading to expanded applications in FT-SX experiments.

Versatile microporous polymer-based supports for serial macromolecular crystallography

Isabelle Martiel et al.

Summary: Serial data collection using thin supports made of polymer-based membranes has proven to be a useful method for challenging targets with small crystal sizes, weak diffraction, and stringent dose limits. These supports are suitable for a wide range of protein crystals suspended in liquid, including membrane proteins growing in the sponge phase. The sample-deposition method is simple and robust, resulting in optimally thin specimens with low background and minute amounts of mother liquor around the crystals, making it a flexible and adaptable solution for various cases. Thanks to their affordable fabrication, these supports have the potential to become an attractive option for serial experiments at synchrotrons and free-electron lasers.
