BEST and SOFAST experiments for resonance assignment of histidine and tyrosine side chains in 13 C/ 15 N labeled proteins
BEST and SOFAST experiments for resonance assignment of histidine and tyrosine side chains in 13 C/ 15 N labeled proteins
Abstract
Aromatic amino-acid side chains are essential components for the structure and function of proteins. We present herein a set of NMR experiments for time-efficient resonance assignment of histidine and tyrosine side chains in uniformly 13C/15N-labeled proteins. The use of band-selective 13C pulses allows to deal with linear chains of coupled spins, thus avoiding signal loss that occurs in branched spin systems during...

More on Crystal Formation (This Time With Proteins)
Science Magazine (blog)
I realize that I was just talking about crystal formation here the other day, but there's yet more news in the area, and it comes in the fiendishly difficult area of protein crystallography. All you have to do to appreciate the horrors of this field is ...

Digging Through the Proteins, Covalently
Science Magazine (blog)
I blogged here last year about some really interesting work from the Cravatt group at Scripps. It's sort of an intersection between fragment-based screening and screening in cells, which is an intersection that I'd previously never thought existed ...

Scientists move toward rational design of artificial proteins
R & D Magazine
Less vulnerable to chemical or metabolic breakdown than proteins, peptoids are promising for diagnostics, pharmaceuticals, and as a platform to build bioinspired nanomaterials, as scientists can build and manipulate peptoids with great precision. But ...

On the calculation of 3Jαβ-coupling constants for side chains in proteins
On the calculation of 3Jαβ-coupling constants for side chains in proteins
Abstract Structural knowledge about proteins is mainly derived from values of observables, measurable in NMR spectroscopic or X-ray diffraction experiments, i.e. absorbed or scattered intensities, through theoretically derived relationships between structural quantities such as atom positions or torsional angles on the one hand and observable quantities such as squared structure factor amplitudes, NOE intensities or 3 J-coupling constants on the other. The standardly used relation connecting 3 J-couplings...

New technique enables study of 'challenging' proteins
Science Codex
The technique, an enhanced form of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, could enable the structure of a protein to be identified within hours, rather than weeks or months, radically speeding up the process of drug discovery. ...
