CONT

Outre [l’] expérience classique de biocristallographie, deux techniques sont développées en parallèle et sont exclusives du rayonnement synchrotron. La première est la méthode MAD (multiple-wavelength anomalous diffraction) qui consiste à exploiter la diffusion anomale d’un atome lourd inclus dans la protéine et à déterminer sa position, puis à aider au phasage, à partir de la collecte de données autour du seuil d’absorption.

Key term(s)
  • diffraction anomale multi-longueurs d’ondes
  • méthode M.A.D.
