Lactobacillus caseiBL23 contains two genes,iolG1andiolG2, homologous with inositol dehydrogenase encoding genes from many bacteria. Inositol dehydrogenase catalyzes the oxidation of inositol with concomitant reduction of NAD+. The protein encoded byiolG2, LcIDH2, has been purified to homogeneity, crystallized and cryoprotected for diffraction at 77 K. The crystals had a high mosaicity and poor processing statistics. Subsequent diffraction measurements were performed without cryoprotectant at room temperature. These crystals were radiation-resistant and a full diffraction data set was collected at room temperature to 1.6 Å resolution.

Polysaccharide Monooxygenase

Bacteria and fungi express lytic polysaccharide monooxgyenase (LPMO) enzymes that act in conjunction with canonical hydrolytic sugar-processing enzymes to rapidly convert polysaccharides such as chitin, cellulose and starch to single monosaccharide products. In order to gain a better understanding of the structure and oxidative mechanism of these enzymes, large crystals (1–3 mm3) of a chitin-processing LPMO from the Gram-positive soil bacteriumJonesia denitrificanswere grown and screened for their ability to diffract neutrons. In addition to the collection of neutron diffraction data, which were processed to 2.1 Å resolution, a high-resolution room-temperature X-ray diffraction data set was collected and processed to 1.1 Å resolution in space groupP212121. To our knowledge, this work marks the first successful neutron crystallographic experiment on an LPMO. Joint X-ray/neutron refinement of the resulting data will reveal new details of the structure and mechanism of this recently discovered class of enzymes.

Abstract The caesium phosphates Cs3(H1.5PO4)2(H2O)2 and Cs3(H1.5PO4)2 were obtained from aqueous solutions, and Cs4P2O7(H2O)4 and CsPO3 from solid state reactions, respectively. Cs3(H1.5PO4)2, Cs4P2O7(H2O)4, and CsPO3 were fully structurally characterized for the first time on basis of single-crystal X-ray diffraction data recorded at − 173 °C. Monoclinic Cs3(H1.5PO4)2 (Z = 2, C2/m) represents a new structure type and comprises hydrogen phosphate groups involved in the formation of a strong non-symmetrical hydrogen bond (accompanied by a disordered H atom over a twofold rotation axis) and a very strong symmetric hydrogen bond (with the H atom situated on an inversion centre) with symmetry-related neighbouring anions. Triclinic Cs4P2O7(H2O)4 (Z = 2, P$$\bar{1}$$ 1 ¯ ) crystallizes also in a new structure type and is represented by a diphosphate group with a P–O–P bridging angle of 128.5°. Although H atoms of the water molecules were not modelled, O···O distances point to hydrogen bonds of medium strengths in the crystal structure. CsPO3 is monoclinic (Z = 4, P21/n) and belongs to the family of catena-polyphosphates (MPO3)n with a repetition period of 2. It is isotypic with the room-temperature modification of RbPO3. The crystal structure of Cs3(H1.5PO4)2(H2O)2 was re-evaluated on the basis of single-crystal X-ray diffraction data at − 173 °C, revealing that two adjacent hydrogen phosphate anions are connected by a very strong and non-symmetrical hydrogen bond, in contrast to the previously described symmetrical bonding situation derived from room temperature X-ray diffraction data. In the four title crystal structures, coordination numbers of the caesium cations range from 7 to 12. Graphic abstract

Trimethoprim crystallizes in the triclinic space group P-1 (#2) with a = 10.5085(3), b = 10.5417(2), c = 8.05869(13) Å, α = 101.23371(21), β = 112.1787(3), γ = 112.6321(4)°, V = 743.729 Å3, and Z = 2. A reduced cell search in the Cambridge Structural Database yielded three previous structure determinations, using data collected at 100 K, 173 K, and room temperature. In this work, the sample was ordered from the United States Pharmacopeial Convention (USP) and analyzed as-received. The room temperature (295 K) crystal structure was refined using synchrotron (λ = 0.412826 Å) powder diffraction data and optimized using density functional theory techniques. We found similar hydrogen bonding patterns with the previous determinations. In addition, we identified two C–H⋯O hydrogen bonds, which also contribute to the crystal energy. When comparing the previously reported trimethoprim structure determinations, the unit cell length lattice parameters were found to contract at lower temperatures, particularly 100 K. All structures show reasonable agreement, with unit cell length differences ranging between 0.05 and 0.15 Å. The diffraction data for this study were collected on beamline 11-BM at the Advanced Photon Source, and the powder X-ray diffraction pattern of the compound has been submitted to ICDD® for inclusion in the Powder Diffraction File™ (PDF®).

The structure of the compound Ba1 + x Ni x Rh1 − x O3 [x = 0.1170 (5)] has been analyzed at room temperature within the (3 + 1)-dimensional superspace approach using single-crystal X-ray diffraction data. Two different models are presented, the compound is refined as modulated composite as well as modulated-layer structure. In both models discontinuous atomic domains are applied to describe the structural modulations. While the first approach stresses the pseudo-one-dimensional constitution, the latter highlights the layered character of these structures.

When crystals of 9-tricyclo[4.4.1.0]undecalyl-4-(carbomethoxy)phenyl ketone (1) were allowed to stand in the dark for extended periods of time at room temperature, the compound underwent a thermal reaction — the enolene rearrangement — to afford enol 2. The crystals remained transparent and appeared unchanged in shape as the reaction proceeded. X-ray diffraction data were collected on single crystals containing 17%, 25%, 66%, and 100% of the enol. The crystal structure of a simple enol was obtained via this novel single-crystal-to-single-crystal enolene rearrangement.Key words: single crystal, thermal, rearrangement, enol, enolene.

Microcrystals present a significant impediment to the determination of macromolecular structures by X-ray diffraction methods. Although microfocus synchrotron beamlines and X-ray free-electron lasers (XFELs) can enable the collection of interpretable diffraction data from microcrystals, there is a need for efficient methods of harvesting small volumes (<2 µl) of microcrystals grown under common laboratory formats and delivering them to an X-ray beam source under native growth conditions. One approach that shows promise in overcoming the challenges intrinsic to microcrystal analysis is to pair so-called `fixed-target' sample-delivery devices with microbeam-based X-ray diffraction methods. However, to record weak diffraction patterns it is necessary to fabricate devices from X-ray-transparent materials that minimize background scattering. Presented here is the design of a new micro-diffraction device consisting of three layers fabricated from silicon nitride, photoresist and polyimide film. The chip features low X-ray scattering and X-ray absorption properties, and uses a customizable blend of hydrophobic and hydrophilic surface patterns to help localize microcrystals to defined regions. Microcrystals in their native growth conditions can be loaded into the chips with a standard pipette, allowing data collection at room temperature. Diffraction data collected from hen egg-white lysozyme microcrystals (10–15 µm) loaded into the chips yielded a complete, high-resolution (<1.6 Å) data set sufficient to determine a high-quality structure by molecular replacement. The features of the chip allow the rapid and user-friendly analysis of microcrystals grown under virtually any laboratory format at microfocus synchrotron beamlines and XFELs.
