Most of our knowledge of protein structure and function originates from experiments performed with purified proteins resuspended in dilute, buffered solutions. However, most proteins function in crowded intracellular environments with complex compositions. Significant efforts have been made to develop tools to study proteins in their native cellular settings. Among these tools, in-cell NMR spectroscopy has been the sole technique for characterizing proteins in the intracellular space of living...
[NMR paper] Probing Cell-Surface Interactions in Fungal Cell Walls by High-Resolution 1H-detected Solid-State NMR Spectroscopy
Probing Cell-Surface Interactions in Fungal Cell Walls by High-Resolution 1H-detected Solid-State NMR Spectroscopy
Solid-state NMR (ssNMR) spectroscopy facilitates the non-destructive characterization of structurally heterogeneous biomolecules in their native setting, e.g., comprising proteins, lipids and polysaccharides. Here we demonstrate the utility of high and ultra-high field 1H-detected fast MAS ssNMR spectroscopy, which exhibits increased sensitivity and spectral resolution to further elucidate the atomic-level composition and structural arrangement of the cell wall of...

[NMR paper] Monitoring Protein-Ligand Interactions in Human Cells by Real-Time Quantitative In-Cell NMR using a High Cell Density Bioreactor
Monitoring Protein-Ligand Interactions in Human Cells by Real-Time Quantitative In-Cell NMR using a High Cell Density Bioreactor
In-cell NMR is a unique approach to observe the structural and dynamic properties of biological macromolecules at atomic resolution directly in living cells. Protein folding, chemical modifications, and conformational changes induced by ligand binding can be observed. Therefore, this method has great potential in the context of drug development. However, the short lifetime of human cells confined in the NMR spectrometer limits the application range of in-cell...

NMR-based metabolomics of mammalian cell and tissue cultures
NMR-based metabolomics of mammalian cell and tissue cultures
Abstract NMR spectroscopy was used to evaluate growth media and the cellular metabolome in two systems of interest to biomedical research. The first of these was a Chinese hamster ovary cell line engineered to express a recombinant protein. Here, NMR spectroscopy and a quantum mechanical total line shape analysis were utilized to quantify 30 metabolites such as amino acids, Krebs cycle intermediates, activated sugars, cofactors, and others in both media and cell extracts. The impact of bioreactor scale and addition of...
