Acc Chem Res. 2003 Oct;36(10):723-30

Plastocyanin and cytochrome c(6) function as electron shuttles between cytochrome f and photosystem I in the photosynthetic redox chain. To transfer electrons the partners form transient complexes, which are remarkably short-lived (milliseconds or less). Recent nuclear magnetic resonance studies have revealed details of the molecular interfaces found in such complexes. General features include a small binding site with a hydrophobic core and a polar periphery, including some charged residues. Furthermore, it was found that the interactions are relatively nonspecific. The structural information, in combination with kinetic and theoretical analyses of protein complexes, provides new insight into the nature of transient protein interactions.

[Question from NMRWiki Q&A forum] Error 113: lid is close
Error 113: lid is close
Was trying to lift sample in BMSB control suite... but the machine detected sample within and an error 113 popped out. Anyone knows how to solve this? Thanks in advance.

Many biomolecular interactions proceed via a short-lived encounter state, consisting of multiple, lowly-populated species invisible to most experimental techniques. Recent development of paramagnetic relaxation enhancement (PRE) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy has allowed to directly visualize such...
