Book ChapterDOI
The structure of collagen fibrils.
TL;DR: This chapter discusses the characterization of various members of the collagen class of fibrous protein and a derivation of the principal structural features of the unitary element of connective tissues, the collagen fibril.
Journal ArticleDOI
The structure of actin-rich filaments of muscles according to x-ray diffraction.
TL;DR: From analysis of moderate- to small-angle x-ray diffraction patterns, in the light of similar experience with paramyosin, has been derived the following description for the structure of actin-rich filaments in "tinted" portions of the adductor muscle of the clam, Venus mercenaria.
Journal ArticleDOI
The results of x-ray diffraction studies on keratin fibers.
Richard S. Bear,Henry J. Rugo +1 more
TL;DR: Polypeptide Chain Configurations in Keratin Fibers found that saturated urea solution at room temperature is a particularly useful reagent for securing, under appropriate conditions of tension, reversal of the crossand parallel-8 forms back to the original a condition.
Journal ArticleDOI
The structure of paramyosin fibrils according to x-ray diffraction*
TL;DR: From analysis of x-ray diffraction patterns obtained with improved small-angle techniques has been derived the following description for the structure of the fibrils of the fibrous protein, paramyosin, obtained in this case from "white" portions of the adductor muscle of the clam, Venus mercenaria.
