Three Dimensional Structure

Elucidation of the three-dimensional structure of biomolecules is of great importance because the three-dimensional structure is closely related to biological functions. X-ray single-crystal analysis is powerful method to analyze the structure, but it is sometimes difficult to grow a crystal sufficiently large for conventional or even synchrotron single-crystal X-ray measurement. We recently reported on a magnetically oriented microcrystal array (MOMA) [1] that is a composite in which microcrystals are aligned three-dimensionally in polymer matrix. Microcrystals are suspended in an ultraviolet-curable monomer and rotated non-uniformly in a static magnetic field to achieve three dimensional crystal alignment. Then, the monomer is photopolymerized to maintain the achieved alignment. We have successfully demonstrated that X-ray single crystal structure determinations through MOMA are possible for low molecular weight compounds [2] as well as protein. [3] However, the method with MOMA has two drawbacks: (i) the sample microcrystals cannot be recovered from a MOMA, which is especially serious problem in case of proteins, and (ii) the alignment is deteriorated during the consolidation process, causing low resolution. In this study, we attempt to solve these problems. First, we use a water-soluble sol as microcrystalline media and consolidate the alignment by gelation, which makes the recovery of microcrystals possible. Second, a magnetically oriented microcrystal suspension (MOMS) is used for in-situ X-ray diffraction measurement, which makes the sample recovery possible and enhances the resolution. We use lysozyme as a model protein for both cases. The in-situ method with in-house X-ray diffractometer gave diffraction spots about 3.0 Å resolutions. We plan to perform the same experiment at SPring-8.

Diffraction Patterns

With the development of X-ray free-electron lasers (XFELs), it is possible to determine the three-dimensional structures of noncrystalline objects with coherent X-ray diffraction imaging. In this diffract-and-destroy mode, many snapshot diffraction patterns are obtained from the identical objects which are presented one by one in random orientations to the XFEL beam. Determination of the orientation of an individual object is essential for reconstruction of a three-dimensional structure. Here a new method, called the multiple-common-lines method, has been proposed to determine the orientations of high- and low-signal snapshot diffraction patterns. The mean errors of recovered orientations (α, β, γ) of high- and low-signal patterns are about 0.14, 0.06, 0.12 and 0.77, 0.31, 0.60°, respectively; both sets of errors can meet the requirements of the reconstruction of a three-dimensional structure.

Three Dimensional Structure

The crystal structure of monoclinic tripotassium indium(III) hexachloride, K3[InCl6], obtained by the solvent evaporation method, has been determined from single-crystal X-ray diffraction data. The crystal structure is characterized by isolated [InCl6] octahedra located in the centre of the cell and at the centre of each of the edges of the cell, linked with K+ cations to form a three-dimensional structure.

Nanosized Materials

Atoms in many of the increasingly complex nanosized materials of interest to science and technology do not necessarily occupy the vertices of Bravais lattices. The atomic scale structure of such materials is difficult to determine by traditional X-ray diffraction and so their functional properties remain difficult to optimize by rational design. Here, the three-dimensional structure of Pt x Pd100−x nanoalloy particles is determined, where x = 0, 14, 36, 47, 64 and 100, by a non-traditional technique involving differential resonant high-energy X-ray diffraction experiments conducted at the K edge of Pt and Pd. The technique is coupled with three-dimensional modeling guided by the experimental total and element-specific atomic pair distribution functions. Furthermore, using DFT (density functional theory) calculation based on the positions of atoms in the obtained three-dimensional structure models, the catalytic performance of Pt–Pd particles is explained. Thus, differential resonant high-energy X-ray diffraction is shown to be an excellent tool for three-dimensional structure studies of nanosized materials. The experimental and modeling procedures are described in good detail, to facilitate their wider usage.
