Nanoscale Protein Diffusion in Supercooled Cryoprotectant Solutions
Maddalena Bin, Anita Girelli, Mariia Filianina +15
Vitrification during cryopreservation requires a quantitative understanding of protein transport in deeply supercooled cryoprotectant solutions, yet direct measurements at molecula…
Probing ultrafast heating and ionization dynamics in solid density plasmas with time-resolved resonant X-ray absorption and emission
Lingen Huang, Mikhail Mishchenko, Michal Å mÃd +34
Heating and ionization are among the most fundamental processes in relativistic laser--solid interactions; however, their spatiotemporal evolution remains challenging to capture ex…
Coherent X-rays reveal anomalous molecular diffusion and cage effects in crowded protein solutions
Anita Girelli, Maddalena Bin, Mariia Filianina +38
Understanding protein motion within the cell is crucial for predicting reaction rates and macromolecular transport in the cytoplasm. A key question is how crowded environments affe…
X-ray photon correlation spectroscopy of hydrated lysozyme at elevated pressures
Milla à hlfeldt, Maddalena Bin, Anita Girelli +12
Pressure provides a powerful parameter to control the protein conformation state, which at sufficiently high values can lead to unfolding. Here, we investigate the effects of incre…
Microscopy X-ray Imaging enriched with Small Angle X-ray Scattering for few nanometer resolution reveals shock waves and compression in intense short pulse laser irradiation of solids
Thomas Kluge, Arthur Hirsch-Passicos, Jannis Schulz +23
Understanding how laser pulses compress solids into high-energy-density states requires diagnostics that simultaneously resolve macroscopic geometry and nanometer-scale structure.…
Depletion-Induced Interactions Modulate Nanoscale Protein Diffusion in Polymeric Crowder Solutions
Michelle Dargasz, Nimmi Das Anthuparambil, Sebastian Retzbach +26
Macromolecular crowding plays a crucial role in modulating protein dynamics in cellular and in vitro environments. Polymeric crowders such as dextran and Ficoll are known to induce…
