Recent paper showing the power of combining advanced structural biology with QM/MM simulations to understand a heme enzyme. Work between Diamond, STFC, Bristol and Essex. We present evidence for the presence of an unusual protein to heme cross-link.

Paper describing clustering methods to separate subtle structural differences in populations of protein crystals - with application to polymorphs, ligand binding.. - led by Amy Thompson @amyjayyyne.bsky.social with VMXi,I24 and Data Analysis at @ddiamond.bsky.social journals.iucr.org/d/issues/202...

Our new paper exploring the effect of XFEL pulse length and pulse intensity on electron density maps of two radiation sensitive proteins. A great collaboration between Diamond, SwissFEL and University of Essex's Worrall group.

Nice to see our review on the fascinating cytochromes P460 and cytochromes c' - that use a similar and unusual structure to carry out very different functions out in JBIC. An idea for a mini review that expanded! link.springer.com/article/10.1...

Just getting started on blue sky - Using this mostly for work purposes, as a brief intro for people I don't already know - I'm a structural biologist at Diamond Light Source specialising in room temperature X-ray structures and serial crystallography at synchrotrons and XFELs
