Notes:
The theory of the technique currently in use for measuring distances between subunits in macromolecular aggregates by neutron small-angle scattering is outlined. It is shown that estimates for the radii of gyration of subunits within aggregates can be extracted from neutron distance data, in addition to the distances themselves. The current status of efforts to apply these methods to determine the structure of the E. coli ribosome is discussed.
