Neutron Scattering and Reflection - The Tools You Need For The Structural Biology Problems You Can't Solve Speaker: Dr. Cameron Neylon - Science and Technology Facilities Council Didcot, United Kingdom. Date: 2011-02-25 Time: 09:00 - 10:00 Place: Onkologiska Klinikens föreläsningssal, Klinikgatan 7 Abstract: If you scratch a person interested in structural biology and ask them what the big outstanding problems are you'll get one of three answers. Membrane associated systems, multi-component complexes, and natively or partially unstructured systems. Conventional approaches to structural biology struggle with all of these cases, providing partial answers. These difficult problems are not going to fall to any one technique and Neutron scattering and reflection can provide complementary information on these systems that can help to crack open the problem. I will give examples of studies on the arrangement of large complexes in solution, membrane associated proteins, and model systems for the study of membrane proteins. I will describe how, in combination with the techniques you are already applying the strategic use of scattering techniques has the potential to get you to a solution faster.
