Abstract
It is challenging to find membrane mimics that stabilize the native structure, dynamics, and functions of membrane proteins. In a recent advance, nanodiscs have been shown to provide a bilayer environment compatible with solution NMR. Increasing the lipid to "belt" peptide ratio expands their diameter, slows their reorientation...

Structural studies of membrane proteins by NMR
A post-doctoral position is available to work on the structural studies of a variety of
membrane proteins (cytochrome P450, cytochrome b5, cytochrome-P450-reductase,
and a combination of these proteins to probe protein-protein interactions)
and amyloid proteins using NMR spectroscopy. We are presently utilizing a combination
of high-resolution solution NMR and solid-state (static and MAS) NMR techniques to
solve high-resolution structures and characterize the dynamics of membrane proteins
embedded in suitable...

The fact that membrane proteins are notoriously difficult to analyse using standard protocols for atomic-resolution structure determination methods have motivated adaptation of these techniques to membrane protein studies as well as development of new technologies. With this motivation, liquid-state nuclear magnetic resonance...
