Brief description Synchrotron Nanocrystallography. The project aims to develop a new method to determine the atomic structures of macromolecular nanocrystals. The project expects to enable atomic scale studies of previously inaccessible molecules and enable molecular movies of chemicals interacting and changing the function of larger molecules, such as proteins. The expected outcome of this project is an advanced new technique for use at the Australian Synchrotron and international x-ray facilities. This should benefit the biological and materials research communities that use crystal structures to determine material properties and protein function, which are key steps in the rational design of materials and drugs respectively.
