Title: Techniques and applications of NMR to membrane proteins. Author: Nielsen N, Malmendal A, Vosegaard T. Journal: Mol Membr Biol; 2004; 21(3):129-41. PubMed ID: 15204621. Abstract: The fact that membrane proteins are notoriously difficult to analyse using standard protocols for atomic-resolution structure determination methods have motivated adaptation of these techniques to membrane protein studies as well as development of new technologies. With this motivation, liquid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) has recently been used with success for studies of peptides and membrane proteins in detergent micelles, and solid-state NMR has undergone a tremendous evolution towards characterization of membrane proteins in native membrane and oriented phospholipid bilayers. In this mini-review, we describe some of the technological challenges behind these efforts and provide examples on their use in membrane biology.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
