Journal ArticleDOI

Extending molecular-replacement solutions with SHELXE

TL;DR: Under favourable circumstances, density modification and polyalanine tracing with SHELXE can be used to improve and validate potential solutions from molecular replacement.
Journal ArticleDOI

A magic triangle for experimental phasing of macromolecules.

TL;DR: 5-Amino-2,4,6-triiodoisophthalic acid, in which three covalently bound iodines form an equilateral triangle, was incorporated into proteins in order to obtain phases by single-wavelength anomalous dispersion (SAD), has an improved binding capability compared with simple heavy-metal ions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Is the bond‐valence method able to identify metal atoms in protein structures?

TL;DR: A simplified version, the calcium bond-valence sum (CBVS), is proposed for the convenient analysis of the geometric environment of potential sites with a view to metal-ion assignment, found to be more reliable for structures determined from high-resolution data (1.5 A or better).
Journal ArticleDOI

Preparation and structural characterization of the bis[bis(trimethylsilyl)amido]chalcogenides of selenium and tellurium

TL;DR: In this paper, the new compounds Se[N(SiMe 3 ) 2 ] 2 and Te[NMe 3 ] 2 were prepared in relatively good yields and their crystal structures determined by X-ray crystallography at low temperature.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sterically crowded aryl bismuth compounds: synthesis and characterization of bis{2,4,6-tris(trifluoromethyl)phenyl} bismuth chloride and tris{2,4,6-tris(trifluoromethyl)phenyl} bismuth

TL;DR: In this article, the reactions of BiCl3 with 2,4,6-tris(trifluoromethyl)phenyl lithium (LiRf) in ether solution in 1 : 2 and 1 : 3 ratios have led to the isolation of BiRf2Cl (I) and Bi(Rf3 (II).
