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.

Ensemble modeling of protein disordered states: experimental restraint contributions and validation.

TL;DR: In this paper, the ENSEMBLE methodology has been used to analyze the structural properties of ensembles with different numbers of conformers, and to make recommendations about the experimental measurements that should be made for optimal ensemble modeling.

Probing the Action of Chemical Denaturant on an Intrinsically Disordered Protein by Simulation and Experiment.

TL;DR: All-atom molecular simulations are used to investigate the effect of urea and guanidinium chloride on the structure of the intrinsically disordered protein ACTR, finding that the protein chain indeed swells with increasing denaturant concentration and supports the picture of chemical denaturation described in these simulations.

Direct Observation of Contact Ion‐Pair Formation in Aqueous Solution

TL;DR: Smallangle X-ray scattering (SAXS) of the Lindqvist [Nb6O19] is shown to detect solvent-separated ion pairing, indicating POMs are highly charged anions with ideal topologies for binding and associating metal cations.

Salt-Induced Conformation and Interaction Changes of Nucleosome Core Particles

TL;DR: Small angle x-ray scattering was used to follow changes in the conformation and interactions of nucleosome core particles (NCP) as a function of the monovalent salt concentration C(s), and the coupling of these two phenomena may be of biological relevance.

The structure and conformation of Lys63-linked tetraubiquitin.

TL;DR: Small-angle X-ray scattering experiments show that the Lys63 tetra-Ub chain is dynamic in solution, adopting an ensemble of conformations that are more compact than the extended form in the crystal.
