Deriving molecular structure from \(^3J\) -couplings obtained from NMR experiments is a challenge due to (1) the uncertainty in the Karplus relation \(^3J(\theta )\) connecting a \(^3J\) -coupling value to a torsional angle \(\theta \) , (2) the need to account for the averaging inherent to the measurement of \(^3J\) -couplings, and (3) the sampling road blocks that may emerge due to the multiple-valuedness of the inverse function \(\theta (^3J)\) of the function \(^3J(\theta )\) . Ways to properly handle these issues in structure refinement of biomolecules are discussed and illustrated using the protein hen egg white lysozyme as example.

A 3D time-shared NOESY experiment designed to provide optimal resolution for accurate assignment of NMR distance restraints in large proteins
Abstract
Structure determination of proteins by solution NMR has become an established method, but challenges increase steeply with the size of proteins. Notably, spectral crowding and signal overlap impair the analysis of cross-peaks in NOESY spectra that provide distance restraints for structural models. An optimal spectral resolution can alleviate overlap but requires prohibitively long experimental time...

Time-averaged order parameter restraints in molecular dynamics simulations
Time-averaged order parameter restraints in molecular dynamics simulations
Abstract
A method is described that allows experimental \(S^2\) order parameters to be enforced as a time-averaged quantity in molecular dynamics simulations. The two parameters that characterize time-averaged restraining, the memory relaxation time and the weight of the restraining potential energy term in the potential energy function used in the simulation, are systematically investigated...
