Researchers at UCLA have designed a hollow, pyramid-shaped protein with a controllable cavity size that may aid the capture and release of smaller compounds. The tools used in this work, including small angle X-ray scattering techniques at the SIBYLS beamline in the Advanced Light Source (ALS), will help analyze and optimize designed-protein assemblies and understand their behavior in solution.
