Abstract
Diatom biosilica is an inorganic/organic hybrid with interesting properties. The molecular architecture of the organic material at the atomic and nanometer scale has so far remained unknown, in particular for intact biosilica. A DNP-supported ssNMR approach assisted by microscopy, MS, and MD simulations was applied to study the structural organization of intact biosilica. For the first time, the secondary structure elements of tightly biosilica-associated native proteins in diatom biosilica were characterized in situ. Our data suggest that these proteins are rich in a limited set of amino acids and adopt a mixture of random-coil and ?-strand conformations. Furthermore, biosilica-associated long-chain polyamines and carbohydrates were characterized, thereby leading to a model for the supramolecular organization of intact biosilica.

Abstract
Supramolecular chemistry provides structural and conformational information about complexes formed from multiple molecules. While the molecule is held together by strong intramolecular contacts like covalent bonds, supramolecular structures can be further stabilized by weaker or transient intermolecular...

Sample orientation relative to the static magnetic field of an NMR spectrometer allows study of membrane proteins in the lipid bilayer setting. The straightforward preparation and handling of extremely thin mica substrates with consistent surface properties has prompted us to examine oriented phospholipid...

We present a robust solid-state NMR approach for the accurate determination of molecular interfaces in insoluble and noncrystalline protein-protein complexes. The method relies on the measurement of intermolecular (13)C-(13)C distances in mixtures of glucose- and glucose-labeled proteins. We have...
