Notes:
Variable-period x-ray standing wave (XSW) spectroscopy has been shown to be a practical probe for studying metalloproteins. The photosynthetic oxygen evolving complex (OEC) is a transmembrane multipolypeptide complex that catalyzes the oxidation of water to dioxygen. The OEC contains Mn, Ca, and Cl and is potentially amenable to study by XSW. In this feasibility study, preliminary results on OEC samples deposited on Au mirrors are discussed. First XSW measurements from the SSRL grazing-incidence setup are presented. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.
