X-ray solution scattering (SAXS) combined with crystallography and computation: defining accurate macromolecular structures, conformations and assemblies in solution.

TL;DR: In this article, a review of the use of small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) for modeling macromolecular folding, unfolding, aggregation, extended conformations, flexibly linked domains, shape, conformation, and assembly state in solution, albeit at the lower resolution range of about 50 A to 10 A resolution, is presented.

Small-angle scattering studies of biological macromolecules in solution

TL;DR: Small-angle scattering (SAS) of x-rays and neutrons is a fundamental tool in the study of biological macromolecules as mentioned in this paper, which allows one to study the structure of native particles in near physiological environments and analyse structural changes in response to variations in external conditions.

Optimization by Simulated Annealing

TL;DR: There is a deep and useful connection between statistical mechanics and multivariate or combinatorial optimization (finding the minimum of a given function depending on many parameters), and a detailed analogy with annealing in solids provides a framework for optimization of very large and complex systems.

CRYSOL : a program to evaluate X-ray solution scattering of biological macromolecules from atomic coordinates

TL;DR: 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.

Restoring low resolution structure of biological macromolecules from solution scattering using simulated annealing.

TL;DR: Application of the method is illustrated by the restoration of a ribosome-like model structure and more realistically by the determination of the shape of several proteins from experimental x-ray scattering data.
