TL;DR: The structure of vancomycin was determined by X-ray analysis of the degradation product CDP-I and a model of the complex is proposed based on this study and spectroscopic data.

TL;DR: This work reports the structure of the first tetranucleotide whose structure has been elucidated by X-ray diffraction, part of an investigation of protein–nucleic acid interactions using single-crystal studies of small model compounds.

TL;DR: A B‐DNA‐type polymer structure is described, which has sequence‐dependent alternations of both the deoxyribose pucker and the phosphate diester bridge conformation, which could facilitate sequence‐specific interactions.

TL;DR: Didemnin B, a highly active depsipeptide isolated from a Caribbean tunicate, crystallizes from chloroform/benzene in the orthorhombic space group C2221, revealing an isostatine residue instead of a statine residue and the structure determination showed distinct stereochemical differences between the two molecules.

TL;DR: The structure was solved by Patterson interpretation, locating the three disulfide bridges, followed by tangent phase expansion and E-Fourier recycling, and the anisotropic refinement against all F(2) data between 1.04 and 10.0 A resolved by blocked restrained full-matrix least-squares techniques.
