This book was released on 2006-08-05 with total page 455 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ‘‘Biopolymers’’ are polymeric materials of biological origin, including globular, membrane, and fibrous proteins, polypeptides, nucleic acids, po- saccharides, lipids, etc. and their assembly, although preference to respe- ive subjects may be different among readers who are more interested in their biological significance or industrial and/or medical applications. Nevert- less, characterizing or revealing their secondary structure and dynamics may be an equally very important and useful issue for both kinds of readers. Special interest in revealing the 3D structure of globular proteins, nucleic acids, and peptides was aroused in relation to the currently active Structural Biology. X-ray crystallography and multidimensional solution NMR sp- troscopy have proved to be the standard and indispensable means for this purpose. There remain, however, several limitations to this end, if one intends to expand its scope further. This is because these approaches are not always straightforward to characterize fibrous or membrane proteins owing to extreme difficulty in crystallization in the former, and insufficient spectral resolution due to sparing solubility or increased effective molecular mass in the presence of surrounding lipid bilayers in the latter.

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 Spectroscopy of Biological Solids written by A. Ramamoorthy and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2005-09-22 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past decade, a myriad of techniques have shown that solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) can be used in a broad spectrum of applications with exceptionally impressive results. Solid-state NMR results can yield high-resolution details on the structure and function of many important biological solids, including viruses, fibril-forming molecules, and molecules embedded in the cell membrane. Filling a void in the current literature, NMR Spectroscopy of Biological Solids examines all the recent developments, implementation, and interpretation of solid-state NMR experiments and the advantages of applying them to biological systems. The book emphasizes how these techniques can be used to realize the structure of non-crystalline systems of any size. It explains how these isotropic and anisotropic couplings interactions are used to determine atomic-level structures of biological molecules in a non-soluble state and extrapolate the three-dimensional structure of membrane proteins using magic-angle spinning (MAS). The book also focuses on the use of multidimensional solid-state NMR methods in the study of aligned systems to provide basic information about the mechanisms of action of a variety of biologically active molecules. Addressing principles, methods, and applications, this book provides a critical selection of solid-state NMR methods for solving a wide range of practical problems that arise in both academic and industrial research of biomolecules in the solid state. NMR Spectroscopy of Biological Solids is a forward-thinking resource for students and researchers in analytical chemistry, bioengineering, material sciences, and structural genomics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Atomic-resolution membrane protein structures can be determined by solid-state Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, and the unique advantage of the approach is that membrane proteins reside in near-native lipid bilayer environment at physiological pH and temperature, which minimizes the potential distortions of the protein structure caused by the environment. Here, the full-length mercury transporter protein, MerF, is the focus of the structural studies, and the protein is an essential part of the bacterial mercury detoxification system that has been exploited as a potential engineering target for mercury bioremediation strategies. The backbone structures of the full-length MerF are determined in two environments, (i) magnetically aligned bicelles by oriented-sample (OS) solid-state NMR and (ii) proteoliposome by rotationally aligned (RA) solid-state NMR; and notably, both environments provide the planar lipid bilayer environment for the protein. The structural study of MerF in aligned bicelle has initially been challenging for the OS solid-state NMR, and consequently, methods have been developed to tackle the two major obstacles, the spectral resolution and resonance assignments. New pulse sequence, MSHOT-Pi4/Pi, has demonstrated a reduction of the 1H resonance line width by more than a factor of two, a significant improvement in spectral resolution. New resonance assignment method, Dipolar Coupling Correlated Isotropic Chemical Shift (DCCICS) Analysis, has been developed that is able to transfer resonance assignment from isotropic NMR methods to OS solid-state NMR spectra. The combined usage of several resonance assignment strategies and special tactics, such as applying DCCICS to the new high-resolution proton-evolved local field experiments for terminal and loop residues, has resulted in the complete assignment of all backbone immobile residues of the full-length MerF protein in magnetically aligned bicelle. Meanwhile, RA solid-state NMR is developed in the lab as a new method that combines the strength of magic-angle-spinning (MAS) solid-state NMR in obtaining resonance assignment and the concept of molecular alignment from OS solid-state NMR in obtaining angular restraints. In applying to the structural study of MerF, the method is further incorporated with multi-contact cross polarization and sequential backbone "walk" with three three-dimensional experiments, and the first structure of full-length MerF is determined with the method. In comparison to the previously determined structure of the truncated MerF (MerFt), the full-length structure reveals that the protein truncation has caused large conformational rearrangement at a place more than ten residues away from the truncation site, which serves as an example to demonstrate the importance of studying the full-length unmodified proteins by structural biologists. Additionally, the structure reveals that both mercury-binding sites are located at the intracellular side of the membrane, hinting at the observation of a conformation that allows intramolecular transfer of mercury ions. Subsequently after the complete assignment of MerF in OS solid-state NMR, the MerF structure determined by RA solid-state NMR is further improved by incorporating additional angular restraints from OS solid-state NMR and by the new treatment of dihedral restraints derived from the experimental study of C-terminal dynamics. Lastly, as a side project, the theoretical foundation of MSHOT-Pi4 pulse sequence is further explored. The observation that the pulse sequence selectively improves the resolution of membrane protein samples but not of standard single crystal sample has been analytically generalized as the principle of "motion-adapted" pulse sequence, where it is found that the interference between sample's spatial rotational motion and the radio-frequency pulse rotation in the quantum spin space is the cause of the selectivity. As a related endeavor, the mechanisms of dilute spin exchange and the magic-angle 1H spin-lock pulses have been analyzed theoretically and demonstrated in standard and biological samples. Mixed-order proton-relay mechanism is proposed to be the main contributor to dilute spin exchange in stationary aligned sample, and once more, the difference of pulse performance between standard and biological samples is observed that may be a consequence of several causes including sample motion. In conclusion, the development of various methods in OS and RA solid-state NMR are likely to find their usage in future structural studies of membrane proteins; the theoretical principle of motion-adapted property opens up new avenue to develop pulse sequences for membrane protein samples; and the atomic-resolution backbone structures of MerF contribute information for structural biologist and for the mechanistic study of mercury transportation.
