Data of pink-beam serial synchrotron crystallography at the Pohang Light Source II.

ABSTRACT: Serial synchrotron crystallography (SSX) helps to determine the room-temperature structure of macromolecules with minimal radiation damage. Pink-beam X-ray provides more photon flux than a monochromatic beam, which can increase the diffraction intensity of crystal samples and reduce the issue of partial reflection measurement compared with a monochromatic beam. The demonstration of pink-beam SSX at the 1C beamline at the Pohang Light Source II (PLS-II) was previously reported. The Bragg peaks observed in SSX diffraction data using a pink-beam exhibited a slightly stretched shape, unlike that from a monochromatic beam. Therefore, it is necessary to develop an indexing algorithm that can efficiently process the Bragg peak generated by pink-beam SSX. Therefore, the collected pink-beam SSX diffraction data can be tentatively used to develop an indexing program for Bragg peaks generated using the pink-beam. In this study, detailed information on the diffraction data of pink-beam SSX at PLS-II was reported to access the raw data and process the information.

Project description:Two new macromolecular crystallography (MX) beamlines at the National Synchrotron Light Source II, FMX and AMX, opened for general user operation in February 2017 [Schneider et al. (2013). J. Phys. Conf. Ser. 425, 012003; Fuchs et al. (2014). J. Phys. Conf. Ser. 493, 012021; Fuchs et al. (2016). AIP Conf. Proc. SRI2015, 1741, 030006]. FMX, the micro-focusing Frontier MX beamline in sector 17-ID-2 at NSLS-II, covers a 5-30 keV photon energy range and delivers a flux of 4.0 × 1012 photons s-1 at 1 Å into a 1 µm × 1.5 µm to 10 µm × 10 µm (V × H) variable focus, expected to reach 5 × 1012 photons s-1 at final storage-ring current. This flux density surpasses most MX beamlines by nearly two orders of magnitude. The high brightness and microbeam capability of FMX are focused on solving difficult crystallographic challenges. The beamline's flexible design supports a wide range of structure determination methods - serial crystallography on micrometre-sized crystals, raster optimization of diffraction from inhomogeneous crystals, high-resolution data collection from large-unit-cell crystals, room-temperature data collection for crystals that are difficult to freeze and for studying conformational dynamics, and fully automated data collection for sample-screening and ligand-binding studies. FMX's high dose rate reduces data collection times for applications like serial crystallography to minutes rather than hours. With associated sample lifetimes as short as a few milliseconds, new rapid sample-delivery methods have been implemented, such as an ultra-high-speed high-precision piezo scanner goniometer [Gao et al. (2018). J. Synchrotron Rad. 25, 1362-1370], new microcrystal-optimized micromesh well sample holders [Guo et al. (2018). IUCrJ, 5, 238-246] and highly viscous media injectors [Weierstall et al. (2014). Nat. Commun. 5, 3309]. The new beamline pushes the frontier of synchrotron crystallography and enables users to determine structures from difficult-to-crystallize targets like membrane proteins, using previously intractable crystals of a few micrometres in size, and to obtain quality structures from irregular larger crystals.
