Probing Cage Relaxation in Concentrated Protein Solutions by X-Ray Photon Correlation Spectroscopy
(2022) In Physical Review Letters 129(23).- Abstract
Diffusion of proteins on length scales of their size is crucial for understanding the machinery of living cells. X-ray photon correlation spectroscopy (XPCS) is currently the only way to access long-time collective diffusion on these length scales, but radiation damage so far limits the use in biological systems. We apply a new approach to use XPCS to measure cage relaxation in crowded α-crystallin solutions. This allows us to correct for radiation effects, obtain missing information on long time diffusion, and support the fundamental analogy between protein and colloid dynamical arrest.
