Biosci Rep. 1995 Feb;15(1):55-63
Authors: Petcu I, Lupu M, Grosescu R
The inhibition of water diffusion across the rat erythrocyte membrane was studied by NMR using two basically different types of inhibitory agents: PCMB and in vivo irradiation. The contribution of lipid and protein to water permeability revealed the inhibitory effect of each pathway....

A proton magnetic resonance study of different cross-linked collagens was performed as a function of water content and temperature. Collagens from three connective tissues (calf, steer, and cow) were chosen according to the different number of nonreducible multivalent cross-links, which increases during the life of animal. Samples were hydrated...

We use 1D and 2D (2)H NMR to study the temperature-dependent mechanism for the rotational motion of myoglobin hydration water. The results show that isotropic and anisotropic water reorientation is observed at high and low temperatures, respectively, with a continuous crossover in the temperature range of 200-230 K. The anisotropic...
