Molecular architecture of the Jumonji C family histone demethylase KDM5B
The full length human histone 3 lysine 4 demethylase KDM5B (PLU-1/Jarid1B) has been studied using Hydrogen/Deuterium exchange mass spectrometry, homology modelling, sequence analysis, small angle X-ray scattering and electron microscopy ...
Size-exclusion chromatography small-angle X-ray scattering of water soluble proteins on a laboratory instrument
S. Bucciarelli, S. R. Midtgaard, M. Nors Pedersen, S. Skou, L. Arleth and B. Vestergaard
Coupling of size-exclusion chromatography with biological solution small-angle X-ray scattering (SEC-SAXS) on dedicated synchrotron beamlines enables structural analysis of challenging samples such as labile proteins and low-affinity complexes...

Quantitative Analysis of Semiconductor Nanocrystal Ensemble Optical Extinction
Staller, Corey M.; Agrawal, Ankit; Gibbs, Stephen L.; Cabezas, Camila A. Saez; Johns, Robert W.; Milliron, Delia J.
The optical extinction coefficients of localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) in doped semiconductor nanocrystals (NCs) have intensities determined by the free charge carrier concentration and the mechanisms for damping the oscillation of those free carriers. We investigate the dependence of the extinction coefficient of tin-doped indium oxide (ITO) NCs on…
Conduction Band Fine Structure in Colloidal HgTe Quantum Dots
Hudson, Margaret H.; Chen, Menglu; Kamysbayev, Vladislav; Janke, Eric M.; Lan, Xinzheng; Allan, Guy; Delerue, Christophe; Lee, Byeongdu; Guyot-Sionnest, Philippe; Talapin, Dmitri V.
HgTe colloidal quantum dots (QDs) are of interest because quantum confinement of semimetallic bulk HgTe allows one to synthetically control the bandgap throughout the infrared. Here, we synthesize highly monodisperse HgTe QDs and tune their doping both chemically and electrochemically. The monodispersity of the QDs was evaluated using small-angle X-ray…
Phosphorylation-induced conformational dynamics in an intrinsically disordered protein and potential role in phenotypic heterogeneity
Kulkarni, Prakash; Jolly, Mohit Kumar; Jia, Dongya; Mooney, Steven M.; Bhargava, Ajay; Kagohara, Luciane T.; Chen, Yihong; Hao, Pengyu; He, Yanan; Veltri, Robert W.; Grishaev, Alexander; Weninger, Keith; Levine, Herbert; Orban, John
Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) that lack a unique 3D structure and comprise a large fraction of the human proteome play important roles in numerous cellular functions. Prostate-Associated Gene 4 (PAGE4) is an IDP that acts as a potentiator of the Activator Protein-1 (AP-1) transcription factor. Homeodomain-Interacting Protein Kinase 1 (HIPK1)…
Monodisperse hollow silica spheres: An in-depth scattering analysis
Ruckdeschel, Pia; Dulle, Martin; Honold, Tobias; Förster, Stephan; Karg, Matthias; Retsch, Markus
Herein, we fabricate hollow silica nanoparticles with exceptionally narrow size distributions that inherently possess two distinct length scales—tens of nanometers with regards to the shell thickness, and hundreds of nanometers in regards to the total diameter. We characterize these structures using dynamic and static light scattering (DLS and SLS), small…

Strengthening mechanisms in Fe-Al based ferritic low-density steels
Pramanik, Sudipta; Koppoju, Suresh; Anupama, A. V.; Sahoo, Balaram; Suwas, Satyam
Low-density steels with different aluminium contents have been investigated with an aim to examine the occurrence of different strengthening mechanisms leading to its higher strength. A composition corresponding to 6.8wt% aluminium has been studied to understand the underlying strengthening mechanisms. Different factors contributing to the strengthening mechanisms have been separately…
Structural analysis of mtEXO mitochondrial RNA degradosome reveals tight coupling of nuclease and helicase components
Razew, Michal; Warkocki, Zbigniew; Taube, Michal; Kolondra, Adam; Czarnocki-Cieciura, Mariusz; Nowak, Elzbieta; Labedzka-Dmoch, Karolina; Kawinska, Aleksandra; Piatkowski, Jakub; Golik, Pawel; Kozak, Maciej; Dziembowski, Andrzej; Nowotny, Marcin
The mitochondrial RNA degradosome (mtEXO) plays an essential role in the regulation of mitochondrial gene expression and is composed of the 3′-to-5′ exoribonuclease Dss1 and the helicase Suv3. Here the authors present the RNA bound mtEXO crystal structure and give insights into its…
