摘要
Recent advances in rapid X-ray diffraction data collection methods, cryocrystallography, and other techniques have made it possible to visualize short-lived species in enzyme-catalyzed reactions directly at atomic resolution for a significant number of crystalline enzymes. The Wide range of reaction types, intermediate lifetimes, and crystal characteristics means that different methods must be employed in each case, but there are enough examples now of successful structure determinations of normally unstable species to suggest guidelines for future investigations.
