NMR spectroscopy, excited states and relevance to problems in cell biology - transient pre-nucleation tetramerization of huntingtin and insights into Huntington's disease
Solution nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is a powerful technique for analyzing three-dimensional structure and dynamics of macromolecules at atomic resolution. Recent advances have exploited the unique properties of NMR in exchanging systems to detect, characterize and visualize excited sparsely populated states of biological macromolecules and their complexes, which are only transient. These states are invisible to conventional biophysical techniques, and play a key role in many...

Abstract
Proteins exist in ensembles of conformational states that interconvert on various motional time scales. High-energy states of proteins, often referred to as conformationally excited states, are sparsely...

Protein Plaques in Huntington's Patients Have Distinct Structures That Hint at Disease Mechanisms
Huntington's Disease News
Researchers at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine used advanced nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy to directly assess and characterize huntingtin fibrils and other polyglutamine aggregates. Results showed that, unlike what previous ...

Protein structure is inherently dynamic, with function often predicated on excursions from low to higher energy conformations. For example, X-ray studies of a cavity mutant of T4 lysozyme, L99A, show that the cavity is sterically inaccessible to ligand, yet the protein is able to bind substituted benzenes rapidly....

Using relaxation dispersion NMR spectroscopy to determine structures of excited, invisible protein states
Using relaxation dispersion NMR spectroscopy to determine structures of excited, invisible protein states
D. Flemming Hansen, Pramodh Vallurupalli and Lewis E. Kay
Journal of Biomolecular NMR; 2008; 41(3); pp 113 - 120
Abstract:
Currently the main focus of structural biology is the determination of static three-dimensional representations of biomolecules that for the most part correspond to low energy (ground state) conformations. However, it is becoming increasingly well recognized that higher energy structures often play important roles in function as well. Because these conformers...
