Small Angle X-ray Scattering in Structural Investigation of Biological Systems


The small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) is one of the most effective methods permitting verification of the structure of macromolecules in solution. The lecture will present the selected specific applications of the SAXS method in the structural biology. Much attention will be paid to the conformational study in solution, reconstruction of the molecule shape and thermal stability of selected proteins and other biological systems.
