Abstract
Two recent types of application of X-ray synchrotron radiation are reviewed in the context of specific examples. Recent data on the polarization dependent K-edge X-ray absorption spectrum of plastocyanin is presented. Quantum chemistry calculations of this kind of polarization dependence in simpler molecules help with the interpretation of the spectral features. Anomalous diffraction of rare-earth labelled biological membranes form the second example. The specific case considered is of acetylcholine receptor membranes from electric fish.
