Download or read book Membrane Protein Structure Determination written by Jean-Jacques Lacapère and published by Methods in Molecular Biology. This book was released on 2010-08-06 with total page 482 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Membrane proteins, representing nearly 40% of all proteins, are key components of cells involved in many cellular processes, yet only a small number of their structures have been determined. Membrane Protein Structure Determination: Methods and Protocols presents many detailed techniques for membrane protein structure determination used today by bringing together contributions from top experts in the field. Divided into five convenient sections, the book covers various strategies to purify membrane proteins, approaches to get three dimensional crystals and solve the structure by x-ray diffraction, possibilities to gain structural information for a membrane protein using electron microscopy observations, recent advances in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and molecular modelling strategies that can be used either to get membrane protein structures or to move from atomic structure to a dynamic understanding of a molecular functioning mechanism. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular BiologyTM series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls. Comprehensive and easy to use, Membrane Protein Structure Determination: Methods and Protocols serves as an ideal reference for scientists seeking to further our knowledge of these vital and versatile proteins as well as our overall understanding of the complicated world of cell biology.
Download or read book Solid state NMR Studies of Membrane Proteins and Membrane Protein Complexes written by Lindsay J. Sperling and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Membrane proteins help control nearly every process in the cell, which is why approximately 50% of pharmaceuticals currently on the market target membrane proteins. Knowledge of structure-function relationships of these proteins could be leveraged to produce more efficient drugs. However, the traits that make membrane proteins so interesting also make them difficult targets for traditional structure elucidation techniques. X-ray crystallography relies on the use of single crystals, production of which are elusive for membrane proteins due to their inherent dynamic loops and stretches of hydrophobic residues, which contribute to aggregation and/or loss of function without the presence of a lipid environment. Solution NMR experiences difficulty dealing with slow molecular tumbling due to the large sizes of membrane proteins. Conversely, solid-state NMR (SSNMR) has no inherent size limitation and does not require the use of crystals, which presents SSNMR with the unique capability to study membrane proteins in native environments at atomic-resolution. However, this technique is still a relatively new tool for solving structures of biomolecules. Here, we begin to develop strategies for solid-state NMR de novo structure determination. We provide a 0́−divide-and-conquer0́+ investigation of an E. coli 41 kDa membrane protein complex, DsbA/DsbB. We begin by completing chemical shift assignments, the first step in structure determination in NMR studies, of the 21 kDa protein DsbA to optimize sensitivity and resolution of data collection and analysis of large systems. We then use this study to drive forward structural examination of the disulfide bond forming system DsbA/DsbB. Finally, SSNMR techniques are used to study a 144 kDa cytochrome bo3 ubiquinol oxidase demonstrating the power of this technique to investigate large membrane complexes in native environments.
Download or read book NMR with Biological Macromolecules in Solution written by Kurt Wüthrich and published by World Scientific Publishing Company. This book was released on 2021 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book provides insights into the research of the Kurt Wüthrich laboratories from 1996-2020. During this time period, the technique of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy in solution went through several breakthroughs, while maturing into a standard method of structural biology. With the introduction of TROSY (transverse relaxation-optimized spectroscopy), the range of accessible molecular sizes was extended about thirty-fold, and efficient protein structure determination resulted from the demands of the structural genomics initiative. Applications in fundamental biology and biomedicine include studies of prion proteins and prion diseases (TSEs), the SARS-Corona virus proteome, trans-membrane signalling by G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), and signal transfer by pheromones.Key publications from the Kurt Wüthrich laboratories are placed in perspective, providing insights into new aspects of NMR spectroscopy in structural biology. In addition to methods development, this includes applications in diverse areas of biological research, such as prion proteins and their role in transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs), trans-membrane signal transfer by G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), structural characterization of the SARS-Corona virus proteome, metabolic-flux profiling in bacterial cultures, and signal transfers by pheromones.

Download or read book Study of Bacteriorhodopsin in a Controlled Lipid Environment written by Vivien Yeh and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-10-26 with total page 139 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on the study of how the properties of nanodiscs, such as lipid composition and size, influence the function of the embedding integral membrane protein, bacteriorhodopsin. The author performed systematic studies to show that the lipid composition and the charge of the hydrophobic head and the structure of hydrophilic tails affect the photocycle pathway of bacteriorhodopsin, which is closely associated with its proton-pumping activity. Furthermore, the author demonstrated a highly efficient method for extracting membrane proteins directly from the biological membrane, preserving protein conformation, function and essential native lipids. This book demonstrates optimization and sample preparation, and presents practical methods of preparing membrane protein-embedded nanodisc samples for biophysical studies, which benefit structural and functional studies in the field of membrane protein characterization, both.

Download or read book Solid State NMR Spectroscopy written by Melinda J. Duer and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2008-04-15 with total page 592 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is for those familiar with solution-state NMR who are encountering solid-state NMR for the first time. It presents the current understanding and applications of solid-state NMR with a rigorous but readable approach, making it easy for someone who merely wishes to gain an overall impression of the subject without details. This dual requirement is met through careful construction of the material within each chapter. The book is divided into two parts: "Fundamentals" and "Further Applications." The section on Fundamentals contains relatively long chapters that deal with the basic theory and practice of solid-state NMR. The essential differences and extra scope of solid-state NMR over solution-state is dealt with in an introductory chapter. The basic techniques that all chapters rely on are collected into a second chapter to avoid unnecessary repetition later. Remaining chapters in the "Fundamentals" part deal with the major areas of solid-state NMR which all solid-state NMR spectroscopists should know about. Each begins with an overview of the topic that puts the chapter in context. The basic principles upon which the techniques in the chapter rely are explained in a separate section. Each of these chapters exemplifies the principles and techniques with the applications most commonly found in current practice. The "Further Applications" section contains a series of shorter chapters which describe the NMR techniques used in other, more specific areas. The basic principles upon which these techniques rely will be expounded only if not already in the Fundamentals part.
