[NMR paper] Role of rotational motion in diffusion NMR experiments on supramolecular assemblies: application to Sup35NM fibrils
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...

Solid-state NMR is able to generate structural data on sample preparations that are explicitly non-crystalline. In particular, for amyloid fibril samples, which can comprise significant degrees of sample disorder, solid-state NMR has been used very successfully. But also solid-state NMR studies of other supramolecular assemblies that have resisted...
