Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Function analysis of biological materials has been performed at the SPring-8 Angstrom Compact Free Electron Laser (SACLA) by using a newly developed experimental system for obtaining dynamical structure of micrometer-scale particles. A pulsed droplet injector was developed as an efficient sample delivery tool in the experimental system, which was successfully applied to the structure analysis of small protein crystals. By combining with an optical laser, this system was able to capture structural dynamics of photo-responsive protein. These studies demonstrate that the new experimental system is highly useful for function analysis of materials.
