Membrane proteins mediate so much of the information flow between cells and their surroundings. Understanding their molecular structure will inevitably give scientists insights into function and form as well as providing targets for novel pharmaceuticals when these proteins go awry.

Structure determination of membrane-associated proteins (MPs) represents a frontier of structural biology that is characterized by unique challenges in sample preparation and data acquisition. No less important is our ability to study the dynamics of MPs, since MP flexibility and characteristic motions often make sizeable contributions to their...

Journal of Biomolecular NMR; 2008; 42(1); pp 49-58
Abstract
Polytopic α-helical membrane proteins present one of the final frontiers for protein structural biology, with significant challenges causing severe under-representation in the protein structure databank. However, with the advent of hardware and methodology geared to the study of large molecular weight complexes, solution NMR is being increasingly considered as a tool...
