The protein ?-syn adopts a wide variety of conformations including an intrinsically disordered monomeric form and an ?-helical rich membrane-associated form that is thought to play an important role in cellular membrane processes. However, despite the high affinity of ?-syn for membranes, evidence that the ?-helical form of ?-syn is adopted inside cells has thus far been indirect. In cell DNP-assisted solid state NMR on frozen samples has the potential to report directly on the entire...
[NMR paper] Determining the Physico-Chemical Composition of Biomolecular Condensates from Spatially-Resolved NMR
Determining the Physico-Chemical Composition of Biomolecular Condensates from Spatially-Resolved NMR
Liquid-Liquid phase separation has emerged as fundamental process underlying the formation of biomolecular condensates. Insights into the composition and structure of biomolecular condensates is, however, complicated by their molecular complexity and dynamics. Here, we introduce an improved spatially-resolved NMR experiment that enables quantitative analysis of the physico-chemical composition of multi-component biomolecular condensates in equilibrium and label-free. Application of...

[NMR paper] In-Cell Sensitivity-Enhanced NMR of Intact Viable Mammalian Cells
In-Cell Sensitivity-Enhanced NMR of Intact Viable Mammalian Cells
NMR has the resolution and specificity to determine atomic-level protein structures of isotopically labeled proteins in complex environments, and with the sensitivity gains conferred by dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP), NMR has the sensitivity to detect proteins at their endogenous concentrations. However, DNP sensitivity enhancements are critically dependent on experimental conditions and sample composition. While some of these conditions are theoretically compatible with cellular viability,...

Journal Highlight: Mutual diffusion driven NMR: a new approach for the analysis of mixtures by spatially resolved NMR spectroscopy
http://www.spectroscopynow.com/common/images/thumbnails/15c4eade5e6.jpgA new approach has been established for resolving the NMR spectra of mixtures, relying on the mutual diffusion of dissolved species when a concentration gradient is established within the NMR tube.
