Determination of structural water by neutron protein crystallography [electronic resource] : an analysis of the carbon monoxide myoglobin water structure.

An ideal technique for studying the water structure of proteins using neutron crystallography is discussed. The advantages of using deuterons (D/sub 2/O) instead of hydrogen (H/sub 2/O) are explained. The results of an early unrefined met myoglobin neutron analysis are presented. More recent high re...

Description
Summary:An ideal technique for studying the water structure of proteins using neutron crystallography is discussed. The advantages of using deuterons (D/sub 2/O) instead of hydrogen (H/sub 2/O) are explained. The results of an early unrefined met myoglobin neutron analysis are presented. More recent high resolution x-ray analysis of met myoglobin and refined neutron analysis of carbon monoxide myoglobin water structure were compared. Neutron maps were included.
