We show by X-ray and neutron small-angle scattering that gold nanoparticles with controlled sizes and morphologies can be obtained by the metallic reduction of AuCl4– ions trapped in 3D organic molds by X-ray radiolysis.

Editors : Véronique Arluison and Frank Wien This volume looks at the different spectroscopic and biophysical methods used by researchers to study the structure and folding of RNA, and to follow their interactions with proteins.

Aline Maire du Poset, Mikaela Börjesson, Céline Rameau, Claire Madeleine-Perdrillat, Adrien Lerbret, Camille Loupiac, Fabrice Cousin, Ali Assifaoui We show here how the structure of polygalacturonate (polyGalA) hydrogels cross-linked by Ca2+ cations via external gelation controls the loading and release rate of beta-lactoglobulin (BLG), a globular protein.

Les matériaux composites, dont on peut faire judicieusement varier la composition, permettent de combiner les propriétés de ses constituants.

de Oliveira-Silva, Rodrigo; Bélime, Agathe; Le Coeur, Clémence; Chennevière, Alexis; Helary, Arnaud; Cousin, Fabrice; Judeinstein, Patrick; Sakellariou, Dimitrios; Zanotti, Jean-Marc In soft condensed matter, Small Angle Neutron Scattering (SANS) is a central tool to probe structures with characteristic sizes ranging from 1 to 100 nm.

Des chercheurs de l’I2BC@Saclay et de l’UMR NIMBE, en collaboration avec le Laboratoire Léon Brillouin (LLB), ont analysé la structure de la couronne composée de deux protéines modèles adsorbées sur des nanoparticules de silice, en utilisant la technique de diffusion des neutrons aux petits angles.

Les membranes d’oxyde d’aluminium nanoporeuses sont des systèmes modèles permettant d’étudier le comportement de la matière sous confinement.

Andrés Marcoleta, Frank Wien, Véronique Arluison, Rosalba Lagos, Rafael Giraldo Bacterial Amyloids (2019) Amyloids are supramolecular protein assemblies based on fibrillar arrangements of β‐sheets that were first found as linked to neurodegenerative and systemic human diseases.

La diffusion des macromolécules dans les cellules ne suit généralement pas des lois simples de diffusion du fait de la grande quantité et diversité de molécules présentes dans ce milieu.

Pour survivre dans leur milieu, les bactéries doivent s'adapter à des conditions de croissance très différentes.
