The tools of structural biology have undergone remarkable advances in the past decade. These include new computational and experimental approaches that have enabled studies at a level of detail - and ease - that were not previously possible. Yet, significant deficiencies in our understanding of biomolecular function remain and new challenges must be overcome to go beyond static pictures towards a description of function in terms of structural dynamics.

Probing allosteric interactions in homo-oligomeric molecular machines using solution NMR spectroscopy
Developments in solution NMR spectroscopy have significantly impacted the biological questions that can now be addressed by this methodology. By means of illustration, we present here a perspective focusing on studies of a number of molecular machines that are critical for cellular homeostasis. The role of NMR in elucidating the structural dynamics of these important molecules is emphasized, focusing specifically on intersubunit allosteric communication in homo-oligomers. In many...

[NMR paper] Characterizing RNA dynamics at atomic resolution using solution-state NMR spectroscopy.
From Mendeley Biomolecular NMR group:
Characterizing RNA dynamics at atomic resolution using solution-state NMR spectroscopy.
Nature methods (2011). Volume: 8, Issue: 11. Pages: 919-31. Jameson R Bothe, Evgenia N Nikolova, Catherine D Eichhorn, Jeetender Chugh, Alexandar L Hansen, Hashim M Al-Hashimi et al.
Many recently discovered noncoding RNAs do not fold into a single native conformation but sample many different conformations along their free-energy landscape to carry out their biological function. Here we review solution-state NMR techniques that measure the structural,...
