Neutron scattering techniques in molecular biology

Several applications of neutron diffraction and spectroscopy to problems in molecular biology are discussed: -How to determine protein structures and in particular the positions of the protein-hydrogens, in comparison with x-rays - molecular assemblies studied by low angle neutron scattering such as ribosomes , chaperons or Ca-binding proteins. - molecular dynamics of proteins investigated by neutron spectroscopy and computer simulations.
