NMR studies have been carried out on subtilisin Carlsberg in order to identify the sharp resonances observed in the proton spectra of the enzyme dissolved in aqueous solution. NMR spectra, obtained with the combination of spin-echo and selective excitation sequences, from both the native and inactivated protein, enabled us to assign sharp signals to subtilisin fragments derived from enzymatic autolysis (monitored by high-performance size-exclusion chromatography), rather than to mobile segments of the intact protein.

To understand how membrane-active peptides (MAPs) function in vivo, it is essential to obtain structural information about them in their membrane-bound state. Most biophysical approaches rely on the use of bilayers prepared from synthetic phospholipids, i.e. artificial model membranes. A particularly successful structural method is solid-state NMR,...

[MWClarkson blog] How native-like is a cold-denatured structure?
How native-like is a cold-denatured structure?
http://www.researchblogging.org/public/citation_icons/rb2_large_gray.pngA protein has several different levels of structure. The primary structure is the arrangements of atoms and bonds, and it is formed in the ribosome by the assembly of amino acids as directed by an RNA template. The secondary structure is the local topology, the helices and strands, and this forms mostly because of the release of energy through the formation of hydrogen bonds. The tertiary structure is the actual fold of the protein, the way helices, strands, and loops are...
