Over the last 15years, the role of NMR spectroscopy in the lead identification and optimization stages of pharmaceutical drug discovery has steadily increased. NMR occupies a unique niche in the biophysical analysis of drug-like compounds because of its ability to identify binding sites, affinities, and ligand poses at the level of individual amino acids without necessarily solving the structure of the protein-ligand complex. However, it can also provide structures of flexible proteins and low-affinity (K(d)>10(-6)M) complexes, which often fail to crystallize. This chapter emphasizes a throughput-focused protocol that aims to identify practical aspects of binding site characterization, automated and semiautomated NMR assignment methods, and structure determination of protein-ligand complexes by NMR.

J. Am. Chem. Soc.; 2006; 128(39) pp 12910 - 12916; (Article)
Abstract:
Rational drug design depends on the knowledge of the three-dimensional (3D) structure of complexes between proteins and lead compounds of low molecular weight. A novel nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy strategy based on the paramagnetic effects from lanthanide ions allows the rapid determination of the 3D structure of a small...
