The determination of the binding affinity quantifying the interaction between proteins and nucleic acids is of crucial interest in biological and chemical research. Here, we have made use of sitespecific fluorine labeling of the cold shock protein from Bacillus subtiliis , Bs CspB, enabling to directly monitor the interaction with single stranded DNA molecules in cell lysate. High-resolution 19 F NMR spectroscopy has been applied to exclusively report on resonance signals arising from the...
[NMR paper] Local deuteration enables NMR observation of methyl groups in proteins from eukaryotic and cell-free expression systems
Local deuteration enables NMR observation of methyl groups in proteins from eukaryotic and cell-free expression systems
Therapeutically relevant proteins such as GPCRs, antibodies and kinases face clear limitations in NMR studies due to the challenges in site-specific isotope labeling and deuteration in eukaryotic expression systems. Here we describe an efficient and simple method to observe the methyl groups of leucine residues in proteins expressed in bacterial, eukaryotic or cell-free expression systems without modification of the expression protocol. The method relies on simple...

Abstract
In living organisms, protein folding and function take place in an inhomogeneous, highly crowded environment possessing a concentration of diverse macromolecules of up to 400*g/L. It has been shown that the intracellular environment has a pronounced effect on the stability, dynamics and function of the...
