✦ Synopsis
Ábstract
Protein interactions in solution are conveniently analysed with small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS). Such an analysis has shown that the addition of monovalent salt induces an additional attraction between macromolecules. A differential effect of the anions is observed, which follows the order of the Hofmeister series. Such experimental observations should be helpful to test the adequacy of theoretical models.

The sensitivity of 129 Xe chemical shifts to weak nonspecific xenon-protein interactions has suggested the use of xenon to probe biomolecular structure and interactions. The realization of this potential necessitates a further understanding of how different macromolecular properties influence the 12
