In this paper, a program for evaluating the solution scattering from macromolecules with known atomic structure is presented, which uses multipole expansion for fast calculation of the spherically averaged scattering pattern and takes into account the hydration shell.
Abstract
A program for evaluating the solution scattering from macromolecules with known atomic structure is presented. The program uses multipole expansion for fast calculation of the spherically averaged scattering pattern and takes into account the hydration shell. Given the atomic coordinates (e.g. from the Brookhaven Protein Data Bank) it can either predict the solution scattering curve or fit the experimental scattering curve using only two free parameters, the average displaced solvent volume per atomic group and the contrast of the hydration layer. The program runs on IBM PCs and on the major UNIX platforms.

Antitumoral activity of allosteric inhibitors of Protein kinase CK2

TL;DR: In vitro and in vivo assays showed that azonaphthalene derivatives could decrease U373 cell tumor mass by 83% emphasizing their efficacy against these apoptosis-resistant tumors, and these inhibitors provide a foundation for a new paradigm for specific CK2 inhibition.

Conformational activation of visual rhodopsin in native disc membranes

TL;DR: Structural analysis with TR-WAXS reveals a light-activated conformational change in rhodopsin in native membranes that is considerably larger than those reported from the basis of crystal structures of activated r Rhodopsin, implying that light activation of rhodopin involves a more extended conformational changes than was previously suggested.

Structure of human RNA polymerase III.

TL;DR: A cryo-EM reconstruction at 4.0 Å of human Pol III is reported, allowing mapping and rationalization of reported genetic mutations, and experiments in living cells highlight a role for this module in the assembly and stability ofhuman Pol III.

Accurate small and wide angle x-ray scattering profiles from atomic models of proteins and nucleic acids.

TL;DR: A new method is introduced to compute X-ray solution scattering profiles from atomic models of macromolecules using a Lebedev grid for the angular averaging and use of fiber-diffraction models for the structure of duplex DNA in solution yields close agreement with the observed scattering profiles.

Investigation of the conformational states of Wzz and the Wzz.O-antigen complex under near-physiological conditions.

TL;DR: The reconstructed model built from SAXS data indicates that the middle regime of Wzz, most likely representing the periplasmic domain, contributes to the Wzz oligomerization, which has been proposed to be correlated to the function of Wz.O-antigen.
