| アブストラクト: |
An overview will be given of the development of the life sciences programme at the ESRF since the facility became operational in 1994. Structural Biology comprises a very important component and the number of stations dedicated to macromolecular crystallography has grown from a half to seven over the past twelve years. Instrumentation development, automation and standardisation have been the keywords for the most recent developments of the macromolecular crystallography beamlines, not only at the ESRF but also at the European level. Another trend is the need for ancillary measurements in connection with the data collection, and for advanced laboratory facilities for all facets of structural biology adjacent to the synchrotron. The increasing crossfertilisation between the research in soft condensed matter and in structural biology represents a valuable development for both research areas. SAXS, WAXS, GID measurements will be used more in structural biology. In the future it can be expected that the application of imaging techniques (microscopy, coherent diffraction imaging) will be important to increase the knowledge in structural biology at the cellular level. |
