Book Solid state Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Investigations of the Influenza M2 Protein

Download or read book Solid state Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Investigations of the Influenza M2 Protein written by Jonathan Kyle Williams and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (ssNMR) spectroscopy is a powerful technique that can be used to probe the structure and dynamics of biomolecules that are intractable to study by other structural biology methods. In this thesis, the mechanisms of conduction and gating are investigated in the influenza AM2 and BM2 proton channels bound to native-like lipid bilayers. Using pH-dependent 15N chemical shifts of the conserved Histidine residue, we have found that the proton conduction mechanism is the same in all of the M2 channels (WT AM2, S3 IN AM2, BM2) studied, and that the conduction cycle involves proton shuttling via hydrogen-bonding with water. For the first time, unambiguous structural restraints and sidechain dynamics were measured for the gating residue Trp4l in the AM2 channel. Trp4l was found to come into close contact with His37, close enough to undergo periodic cation-[pi] interactions that ensure unidirectional proton flow. Water-edited 1H-13C correlation experiments were used to investigate the channel hydration of AM2 and BM2 tetramers, and S12 in the C-terminal BM2 channel was found to have the largest pH-dependent spin-diffusion buildup of all residues studied, indicating that the BM2 serine triplet plays an important role in conduction. New ssNMR methods were developed to probe long-range 13C-13C distances, and to edit and clean-up crowded spectra of peptides and proteins containing aromatic residues. The ASSET technique removes the aliphatic cross peaks of all residues except for Phe, Trp, Tyr, and His in a two-dimensional 13C-13C correlation experiment, while a two-dimensional 13C-13C correlation experiment with gated-decoupling retains only non-protonated 3C resonances. The studies in this thesis have provided insight into the functionally important His and Trp residues in the M2 proton channel of the influenza virus, and provide new avenues for studying other peptides and proteins containing aromatic residues.

Book Membrane Protein Structure Determination

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.

Book Nuclear Magnetic Resonance

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a spectroscopic method, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) has seen spectacular growth over the past two decades, both as a technique and in its applications. Today the applications of NMR span a wide range of scientific disciplines, from physics to biology to medicine. Each volume of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance comprises a combination of annual and biennial reports which together provide comprehensive coverage of the literature on this topic. This Specialist Periodical Report reflects the growing volume of published work involving NMR techniques and applications, in particular NMR of natural macromolecules which is covered in two reports: "NMR of Proteins and Nucleic Acids" and "NMR of Carbohydrates, Lipids and Membranes". For those wanting to become rapidly acquainted with specific areas of NMR, this title provides unrivalled scope of coverage. Seasoned practitioners of NMR will find this an invaluable source of current methods and applications. Volume 33 covers literature published from June 2002 to May 2003. Specialist Periodical Reports provide systematic and detailed review coverage in major areas of chemical research. Compiled by teams of leading authorities in the relevant subject areas, the series creates a unique service for the active research chemist, with regular, in-depth accounts of progress in particular fields of chemistry. Subject coverage within different volumes of a given title is similar and publication is on an annual or biennial basis.

This Specialist Periodical Report reflects the growing volume of published work involving NMR techniques and applications, in particular NMR of natural macromolecules, which is covered in two reports: NMR of Proteins and Nucleic Acids and NMR of Carbohydrates, Lipids and Membranes. In his foreword to the first volume, the then editor, Professor Robin Harris announced that the series would be a discussion on the phenomena of NMR and that articles will be critical surveys of the literature. This has certainly remained the case throughout the series, and in line with its predecessors, Volume 40 aims to provide a comprehensive coverage of the relevant NMR literature. For the current volume this relates to publications appearing between June 2009 and May 2010 (the nominal period of coverage in volume 1 was July 1970 to June 1971). Compared to the previous volume there are some new members of the reporting team. Theoretical Aspects of Spin-Spin Couplings are covered by J. Jazwinski, while E. Swiezewska and J.W̤jcik provide an account of NMR of Carbohydrates, Lipids and Membranes.
