NMR-spectroscopy has certain unique advantages for recording unfolding transitions of proteins compared e.g. to optical methods. It enables per-residue monitoring and separate detection of the folded and unfolded state as well as possible equilibrium intermediates. This allows a detailed view on the state and cooperativity of folding of the protein of interest and the correct interpretation of subsequent experiments. Here we summarize in detail practical and theoretical aspects of such...

[NMR paper] Quantifying the thermodynamics of protein unfolding using 2D NMR spectroscopy
Quantifying the thermodynamics of protein unfolding using 2D NMR spectroscopy
A topic that has attracted considerable interest in recent years is the possibility to perform thermodynamic studies of proteins directly in-cell or in complex environments which mimic the cellular interior. Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) could be an attractive technique for these studies but its applicability has so far been limited by technical issues. Here, we demonstrate that 2D NMR methods can be successfully applied to measure thermodynamic parameters provided that a suitable choice of...

Structural studies in proteases have been hampered because of their inherent autolytic function. However, since autolysis is known to be mediated via protein unfolding, careful monitoring of the autolytic reaction has the potential to throw light on the...
