Humans express around 50 chemokines that play crucial roles in human pathophysiology from combating infection to immune surveillance by directing and trafficking leukocytes to the target tissue. Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) regulate chemokine function by tuning monomer/dimer levels, chemotactic/haptotactic gradients, and how they are presented to their receptors. Knowledge of the structural features of the chemokine-GAG complexes and GAG properties that define chemokine interactions is essential...
[NMR paper] Solid-state NMR methods for the characterization of bioconjugations and protein-material interactions
Solid-state NMR methods for the characterization of bioconjugations and protein-material interactions
Protein solid-state NMR has evolved dramatically over the last two decades, with the development of new hardware and sample preparation methodologies. This technique is now ripe for complex applications, among which one can count bioconjugation, protein chemistry and functional biomaterials. In this review, we provide our account on this aspect of protein solid-state NMR.

[NMR paper] Solution NMR Spectroscopy for Characterizing Protein-Glycosaminoglycan Interactions
Solution NMR Spectroscopy for Characterizing Protein-Glycosaminoglycan Interactions
Solution nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and, in particular, chemical shift perturbation (CSP) titration experiments are ideally suited for mapping and characterizing the binding interface of macromolecular complexes. ¹H-^(15)N-HSQC-based CSP studies have become the method of choice due to their simplicity, short-time requirements, and minimal working knowledge of NMR. CSP studies for characterizing protein-glycosaminoglycan (GAG) interactions can be challenging due to...
