The principle, experimental technique, data analysis, and applications of time-resolved X-ray diffraction and scattering to study spatiotemporal reaction dynamics of proteins in single crystals and solutions will be presented. X-ray crystallography, the major structural tool to determine 3D structures of proteins, can be extended to time-resolved X-ray crystallography with a laser-excitation and X-ray-probe scheme, and all the atomic positions in a protein can be tracked during their biological function. However time-resolved crystallography has been limited to a few model systems with reversible photocycles due to the stringent prerequisites such as highly-ordered and radiation-resistant single crystals and crystal packing constraints might hinder biologically relevant motions. These problems can be overcome by applying time-resolved X-ray diffraction directly to protein solutions rather than protein single crystals. To emphasize that structural information can be obtained from the liquid phase, this time-resolved X-ray solution scattering technique is named time-resolved X-ray liquidography in analogy to time-resolved X-ray crystallography where the structural information of reaction intermediates is obtained from the crystalline phase. By providing insights into the structural dynamics of proteins functioning in their natural environment, time-resolved X-ray liquidography complements and extends results obtained with time-resolved pectroscopy and X-ray crystallography.
