Solution and solid-state NMR spectroscopy are highly complementary techniques for studying structure and dynamics in very high molecular weight systems. Here we have analysed the dynamics of HIV-1 capsid (CA) assemblies in presence of the cofactors IP6 and ATP?S and the host-factor CPSF6 using a combination of solution state and cross polarisation magic angle spinning (CP-MAS) solid-state NMR. In particular, dynamical effects on ns to µs and µs to ms timescales are observed revealing diverse...
[NMR paper] Probing allosteric interactions in homo-oligomeric molecular machines using solution NMR spectroscopy
Probing allosteric interactions in homo-oligomeric molecular machines using solution NMR spectroscopy
Developments in solution NMR spectroscopy have significantly impacted the biological questions that can now be addressed by this methodology. By means of illustration, we present here a perspective focusing on studies of a number of molecular machines that are critical for cellular homeostasis. The role of NMR in elucidating the structural dynamics of these important molecules is emphasized, focusing specifically on intersubunit allosteric communication in homo-oligomers. In many...

Abstract
Proteins come together in macromolecular assemblies, recognizing and binding to each other through their structures, and operating on their substrates through their motions. Detailed characterization of these processes is particularly suited to NMR, a high-resolution...

Successful treatment of chronic myelogenous leukemia is based on inhibitors binding to the ATP site of the deregulated breakpoint cluster region (Bcr)–Abelson tyrosine kinase (Abl) fusion protein. Recently, a new type of allosteric inhibitors targeting the Abl myristoyl pocket was shown in preclinical studies to overcome ATP-site inhibitor resistance arising... Read More

A systematic mutagenesis-driven strategy for site-resolved NMR studies of supramolecular assemblies
A systematic mutagenesis-driven strategy for site-resolved NMR studies of supramolecular assemblies
Abstract Obtaining sequence-specific assignments remains a major bottleneck in solution NMR investigations of supramolecular structure, dynamics and interactions. Here we demonstrate that resonance assignment of methyl probes in high molecular weight protein assemblies can be efficiently achieved by combining fast NMR experiments, residue-type-specific isotope-labeling and automated site-directed mutagenesis. The utility of this general and straightforward strategy is demonstrated through...
