title: Keeping an eye on membrane transport by TR-WAXS.
abstract: In this issue of Structure, Andersson et al. apply time-resolved wide angle X-ray scattering (TR-WAXS) to follow light-induced conformational changes for both bacteriorhodopsin and proteorhodopsin and probe real-time dynamics at atomic resolution.
