    We developed a fast algorithm to predict X-ray scattering from macromolecular crystal structures in solution. This method accurately models scattering curves, confirming solution structures match crystal forms.

    Area of Science:

    • Structural Biology
    • Biophysics
    • Computational Biology

    Background:

    • X-ray crystallography provides high-resolution atomic structures of macromolecules.
    • Understanding macromolecular behavior in solution requires correlating crystal structures with solution scattering data.
    • Existing methods for calculating solution scattering from crystal structures can be computationally intensive.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To present an efficient algorithm for computing X-ray intensities scattered by macromolecules in solution.
    • To validate the algorithm by comparing calculated scattering curves with experimental data.
    • To assess the correspondence between crystal structures and solution structures of E. coli aspartate carbamoyltransferase.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilizing atomic coordinates from crystal structures.
