Abstract: X-ray crystallography can be used to screen compounds that are not known ligands of a target biomolecule for their ability to bind the target biomolecule. The method includes obtaining a crystal of a target biomolecule; exposing the target biomolecule crystal to one or more test samples; and obtaining an X-ray crystal diffraction pattern to determine whether a ligand/receptor complex is formed.

Abstract: Method and apparatus for mounting a sample comprising a crystal for X-ray crystallographic analysis, a method for aligning a sample comprising a crystal for X-ray crystallographic analysis, which sample is mounted on a positioning device, and a method for determining the structure of a sample containing a crystal by means of X-ray crystallography.

The method includes activating a robot so that the tool retrieves the crystal holder, receives a sufficient amount of a fluid to maintain the crystal in the crystal holder at a temperature not in excess of about 160 degrees K, transfers the retrieved crystal holder to a positioning device, and mounts the transferred crystal holder on the positioning device, whereby the crystal in the retrieved crystal holder is maintained at a temperature not in excess of about 160 degrees K.

Abstract: X-ray crystallography can be used to screen compounds that are not known ligands of a target biomolecule for their ability to bind the target biomolecule. The method includes obtaining a crystal of a target biomolecule; exposing the target biomolecule crystal to one or more test samples; and obtaining an X-ray crystal diffraction pattern to determine whether a ligand/receptor complex is formed. The target is exposed to the test samples by either co-crystallizing a biomolecule in the presence of one or more test samples or soaking the biomolecule crystal in a solution of one or more test samples. In another embodiment, structural information from ligand/receptor complexes are used to design ligands that bind tighter, that bind more specifically, that have better biological activity or that have better safety profile. A further embodiment of the invention comprises identifying or designing biologically-active moieties by the instant process.
