Raman-assisted crystallography applied to protein metalation

This doctoral project explores different aspects of the interaction between Au nanoparticles, Hg, Ir, and Ru-based compounds with proteins, as well as, in a reversed perspective, the interaction of the ligand with metal?containing proteins. These issues are addressed by means of the novel yet spreading approach, the Raman?assisted crystallography (RAC), which joints strengths to override curbs from either the two techniques it relies on.
