[NMR paper] Progress, Challenges and Opportunities of NMR and XL-MS for Cellular Structural Biology
Progress, Challenges and Opportunities of NMR and XL-MS for Cellular Structural Biology
The validity of protein structures and interactions, whether determined under ideal laboratory conditions or predicted by AI tools such as Alphafold2, to precisely reflect those found in living cells remains to be examined. Moreover, understanding the changes in protein structures and interactions in response to stimuli within living cells, under both normal and disease conditions, is key to grasping proteins' functionality and cellular processes. Nevertheless, achieving high-resolution...

[NMR paper] Micelles, Bicelles, and Nanodiscs: Comparing the Impact of Membrane Mimetics on Membrane Protein Backbone Dynamics
Micelles, Bicelles, and Nanodiscs: Comparing the Impact of Membrane Mimetics on Membrane Protein Backbone Dynamics
Detergents are often used to investigate the structure and dynamics of membrane proteins. Whereas the structural integrity seems to be preserved in detergents for many membrane proteins, their functional activity is frequently compromised, but can be restored in a lipid environment. Herein we show with per-residue resolution that while OmpX forms a stable ?-barrel in DPC detergent micelles, DHPC/DMPC bicelles, and DMPC nanodiscs, the pico- to nanosecond and micro- to...

[NMR paper] Protein backbone and sidechain torsion angles predicted from NMR chemical shifts using artificial neural networks.
Protein backbone and sidechain torsion angles predicted from NMR chemical shifts using artificial neural networks.
Related Articles Protein backbone and sidechain torsion angles predicted from NMR chemical shifts using artificial neural networks.
J Biomol NMR. 2013 Jun 2;
Authors: Shen Y, Bax A
Abstract
A new program, TALOS-N, is introduced for predicting protein backbone torsion angles from NMR chemical shifts. The program relies far more extensively on the use of trained artificial neural networks than its predecessor, TALOS+....
