Journal ArticleDOI

NSLS X-19A beamline performance for X-ray absorption measurements

TL;DR: The X-19 beamline at the National Synchrotron Light Source (NSLS) as discussed by the authors was designed for high-resolution X-ray absorption spectroscopy over a wide energy range.
Journal ArticleDOI

Snapshots of transition states

TL;DR: Time-resolved X-ray absorption has been used to investigate the structure of the Zn active site in alcohol dehydrogenase during catalysis and supports a new mechanistic model for catalysis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structural characterization of the zinc site in Escherichia coliL-threonine dehydrogenase using extended X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy

TL;DR: The EXAFS data reported here and the thiol/disulfide levels determined for TDH, together with the homology of TDH to horse liver alcohol dehydrogenase, suggest that the one Zn2+/subunit ofTDH is non-catalytic and is probably bound by cysteine residues 93, 96, 99, and 107 in a structural zinc-binding loop of the protein.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structural Characterization of Horseradish Peroxidase Using EXAFS Spectroscopy. Evidence for Fe=O Ligation in Compounds I and II

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used extended X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy to determine the structural environment of the heme iron sites in horseradish peroxidase compounds I and II.
