Abstract
UDP-galactopyranose mutase (UGM) is an enzyme involved in the biosynthesis of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis cell wall, and is essential for the growth and survival of the organism. A micromolar inhibitor developed by tetrafluorination of the UGM substrate has been previously studied by saturation transfer difference (STD) NMR spectroscopy. To elucidate the bioactive conformation of the inhibitor bound to UGM, we employ molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to construct a structural model. The MD model is subsequently validated by a good fit between experimental and theoretical STD effects, the latter calculated by a complete relaxation and conformational exchange matrix (CORCEMA) analysis. This structural model is used to explain the relative binding affinities of the inhibitor and the parent substrate.

A simple protocol for amino acid type selective isotope labeling in insect cells with improved yields and high reproducibility
Abstract An easy to use and robust approach for amino acid type selective isotope labeling in insect cells is presented. It relies on inexpensive commercial media and can be implemented in laboratories without sophisticated infrastructure. In contrast to previous protocols, where either high protein amounts or high incorporation ratios were obtained, here we achieve both at the same time. By supplementing media with a well considered amount of yeast extract,...
