11/22/2013Multiple Isomorphous Replacement (MIR) methodFP FPH - FHSolving the phase problem by “MolecularReplacement".If an approximate model of the protein structure is known in advance, approximatephases can be guessed, and the unknown parts of the structure can be calculatedin an iterative procedure.No heavy atom derivative required.BUT – need starting model and orientation (rotation and translation)For example, molecular replacement can be used to determine the structure of ancomplex with inhibitor bound to an enzyme active site, if the structure of the enzymeitself is already known. Also, MR is often used to solve the structures of closelyrelated proteins in a superfamily.29
