Small-angle scattering (SAS) is a technique that is able to probe the structural organization
of matter and quantify its response to changes in external conditions. X-ray and neutron …

Abstract The Gram-positive bacterium Bacillus subtilis can initiate the process of sporulation
under conditions of nutrient limitation. Here, we review some of the last 5 years of work in …

Small proteins, here defined as proteins of 50 amino acids or fewer in the absence of
processing, have traditionally been overlooked due to challenges in their annotation and …

The last decade has seen a dramatic increase in the use of small‐angle scattering for the
study of biological macromolecules in solution. The drive for more complete structural …

Bacteria sense and respond to a wide range of physical and chemical signals. Central to
sensing and responding to these signals are two-component systems, which have a sensor …

Bacillus subtilis is a commonly used commercial specie with broad applications in the fields
of bioengineering and biotechnology. B. subtilis is capable of producing both biofilms and …

Two-component signal transduction systems (TCSs) are widely conserved in bacteria to
respond to and adapt to the changing environment. Since TCSs are also involved in …

Small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) and small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) are
techniques used to extract structural parameters and determine the overall structures and …

New developments in small-angle X-ray and neutron scattering studies of biological
macromolecules in solution are presented. Small-angle scattering is rapidly becoming a …

Small-angle neutron scattering with contrast variation can fill important gaps in our
understanding of biomolecular assemblies, providing constraints that can aid in the …
