The low sensitivity of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) is a major bottleneck for studying the biomolecular structures of complex biomolecular assemblies. Cryogenically cooled probe technology overcomes the sensitivity limitations enabling NMR applications to challenging biomolecular systems. Here we describe solid-state NMR studies of the human blood protein vitronectin (Vn) bound to hydroxyapatite (HAP), the mineralized form of calcium phosphate, using a CryoProbe designed for magic angle...

Abstract
Donor and acceptor substrate binding to human blood group A and B glycosyltransferases (GTA, GTB) has been studied by a variety of protein NMR experiments. Prior crystallographic studies have shown these enzymes to adopt an...

Uniform isotope labeling of a eukaryotic seven-transmembrane helical protein in yeast enables high-resolution solid-state NMR studies in the lipid environment
Uniform isotope labeling of a eukaryotic seven-transmembrane helical protein in yeast enables high-resolution solid-state NMR studies in the lipid environment
Abstract Overexpression of isotope-labeled multi-spanning eukaryotic membrane proteins for structural NMR studies is often challenging. On the one hand, difficulties with achieving proper folding, membrane insertion, and native-like post-translational modifications frequently disqualify bacterial expression systems. On the other hand, eukaryotic cell cultures can be prohibitively expensive. One of the viable alternatives,...
