Structure determination of membrane proteins in native cellular membranes is critical to precisely reveal their structures in physiological conditions. However, it remains challenging for solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (ssNMR) due to the low sensitivity and high complexity of ssNMR spectra of cellular membranes. Here, we present the structure determination of aquaporin Z (AqpZ) by ssNMR in Escherichia coli inner membranes. To enhance the signal sensitivity of AqpZ, we optimized protein...

Abstract
Biological membranes define the interface of life and its basic unit, the cell. Membrane proteins play key roles in membrane functions, yet their structure and mechanisms remain poorly understood. Breakthroughs in crystallography and electron...

Solid-state NMR is emerging as a method for resolving structural information for large biomolecular complexes, such as membrane-embedded proteins. In principle, there is no molecular weight limit to the use of the approach, although the complexity and volume of data is still outside complete assignment...
