Defining protein oligomeric state and/or its changes in solution is of significant interest for many biophysical studies carried out in vitro, especially when the nature of the oligomeric state is crucial in the subsequent interpretation of experimental results and their biological relevance. Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) is a well-established methodology for the characterization of protein structure, dynamics, and interactions at the atomic level. As a spectroscopic method, NMR also provides...

Role of rotational motion in diffusion NMR experiments on supramolecular assemblies: application to Sup35NM fibrils
Pulsed-field gradient (PFG) NMR is an important tool for characterization of biomolecules and supramolecular assemblies. However, for micron-sized objects, such as amyloid fibrils, these experiments become difficult to interpret because in addition to translational diffusion they are also sensitive to rotational diffusion. We have constructed a mathematical theory describing the outcome of PFG NMR experiments on rod-like fibrils. To test its validity, we have studied the...

Abstract
Among the tools of structural biology, NMR spectroscopy is unique in that it not only derives a static three-dimensional structure, but also provides an atomic-level description of the local fluctuations and global dynamics around this static structure. A battery of...
