Lipids adhere to membrane proteins to stimulate or suppress molecular and ionic transport and signal transduction. Yet, the molecular details of lipid-protein interaction and their functional impact are poorly characterized. Here we combine NMR, coarse-grained molecular dynamics (CGMD), and functional assays to reveal classic cooperativity in the binding and subsequent activation of a bacterial inward rectifier potassium (Kir) channel by phosphatidylglycerol (PG), a common component of many...

Site-specific resolution of anionic residues in proteins using solid-state NMR spectroscopy
Abstract
NMR spectroscopy is commonly used to infer site-specific acid dissociation constants (pKa) since the chemical shift is sensitive to the protonation state. Methods that probe atoms nearest to the functional groups involved in acid/base chemistry are the most sensitive for determining the protonation state. In this work, we describe a magic-angle-spinning (MAS) solid-state NMR approach to measure chemical shifts on the side chain of the anionic residues...

The purpose of the present study is the investigation of the structure and dynamics of biological membranes using solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. Two approaches are used in our laboratory. The first involves the measurement of high-resolution 13C and 1H spectra obtained by the magic angle spinning...
