A toolset for the solid-state NMR-based 3D structure calculation of proteins
Proteins are the building blocks of life. The shape of the protein determines its functionality. This understanding of the 3D structure of proteins has applications in study of diseases, medicine, body functions, and other aspects of life. Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) has been a powerful tool for researchers to get insight into the metabolome of cells, tissues, biofluids, secretions, and overall etiology of the disease state. Solid-state NMR (ssNMR) spectroscopy is used for samples that have...

Abstract
Supramolecular chemistry provides structural and conformational information about complexes formed from multiple molecules. While the molecule is held together by strong intramolecular contacts like covalent bonds, supramolecular structures can be further stabilized by weaker or transient intermolecular...

Determination of structural fluctuations of proteins from structure-based calculations of residual dipolar couplings
Determination of structural fluctuations of proteins from structure-based calculations of residual dipolar couplings
Abstract Residual dipolar couplings (RDCs) have the potential of providing detailed information about the conformational fluctuations of proteins. It is very challenging, however, to extract such information because of the complex relationship between RDCs and protein structures. A promising approach to decode this relationship involves structure-based calculations of the alignment tensors of protein conformations. By implementing this strategy to generate structural...

High-resolution membrane protein structure by joint calculations with solid-state NMR and X-ray experimental data
High-resolution membrane protein structure by joint calculations with solid-state NMR and X-ray experimental data
Abstract X-ray diffraction and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR) are the staple methods for revealing atomic structures of proteins. Since crystals of biomolecular assemblies and membrane proteins often diffract weakly and such large systems encroach upon the molecular tumbling limit of solution NMR, new methods are essential to extend structures of such systems to high resolution. Here we present a method that incorporates solid-state NMR restraints alongside...
