Biomolecular Structure Lab
Machine-translated · View original
A lab that uses synchrotron radiation and neutrons to study the structures and properties of proteins.
AboutAbout the lab
Linking the shape of proteins to their properties
The Biomolecular Structure Lab uses synchrotron radiation and neutron beams as tools to carry out structure–property studies of biological macromolecules, which relate the functions and properties of proteins to features of their crystal structures.
The lab clarifies the reactions mediated by proteins and the properties of protein molecules.
Key terms
- Three-dimensional structure
- The 3D shape that a molecule takes in space
- Synchrotron radiation
- Very bright light (including X-rays) emitted when an accelerator bends the path of electrons
- Neutron beam
- A stream of neutrons, the particles that make up atomic nuclei. It can also be used to see atoms such as hydrogen
ResearchResearch themes
The lab uses synchrotron radiation and neutron beams to study how the functions and properties of proteins relate to features of their crystal structures.
