Computation of small-angle scattering profiles with three-dimensional Zernike polynomials.
Small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) methods are extensively used for characterizing macromolecular structure and dynamics in solution. The computation of theoretical scattering profiles from three-dimensional models is crucial in order to test structural hypotheses. Here, a new approach is presented to efficiently compute SAXS profiles that are based on three-dimensional Zernike polynomial expansions. Comparison with existing methods and experimental data shows that the Zernike method can be used to effectively validate three-dimensional models against experimental data. For molecules with large cavities or complicated surfaces, the Zernike method more accurately accounts for the solvent contributions. The program is available as open-source software at http://sastbx.als.lbl.gov.
期刊介绍:
Acta Crystallographica Section A: Foundations and Advances publishes articles reporting advances in the theory and practice of all areas of crystallography in the broadest sense. As well as traditional crystallography, this includes nanocrystals, metacrystals, amorphous materials, quasicrystals, synchrotron and XFEL studies, coherent scattering, diffraction imaging, time-resolved studies and the structure of strain and defects in materials.
The journal has two parts, a rapid-publication Advances section and the traditional Foundations section. Articles for the Advances section are of particularly high value and impact. They receive expedited treatment and may be highlighted by an accompanying scientific commentary article and a press release. Further details are given in the November 2013 Editorial.
The central themes of the journal are, on the one hand, experimental and theoretical studies of the properties and arrangements of atoms, ions and molecules in condensed matter, periodic, quasiperiodic or amorphous, ideal or real, and, on the other, the theoretical and experimental aspects of the various methods to determine these properties and arrangements.
