 NMR & X-ray crystallography glossary
Because of the strength of NMR in studying protein structure and function, NMR techniques are receiving renewed interest in pressure studies of proteins.
Now it is becoming more common to use NMR for studies of ligand- binding conformations (i.e., a small molecule bound to a protein target).
STD NMR of mixtures of potential ligands with as little as 1 nmol of protein yields 1D and 2D NMR spectra that exclusively show signals from molecules with binding affinity.

 Resumé
Other activities include resolution of new membrane protein reconstitutions and functional characterizations in bilayers, the development and extensive use of novel solid state NMR and spin-label ESR methods to study protein structure and lipid-protein specificity in natural and reconstituted, fully functional membranes.
Since returning to a faculty position in Oxford (1980), a very wide range of membrane systems and biophysical approaches, including novel solid state NMR methods, have been applied to the study of both lipids and proteins in model and fully functional natural membranes.
A highly multidisciplinary approach has been adopted in the study of lipids in model and natural membranes which began with graduate work on liposomal and model systems (Leeds, 1972 - 1975), then post-doctoral research into the study of the molecular specificity of lipid-protein in membranes by ESR spin-label methods (Germany, 1976 - 1980).

 Solid-State NMR - Silk Project
Due to the large molecular weight, the highly repetitive primary structure of the protein, and the heterogeneity of the solid protein (in our case the silk thread from spider and silkworm), the signals from the individual amino acids cannot be resolved in a solid-state NMR spectrum.
Ultimately we would like to obtain a detailed structure of silks, on the length scales that NMR allows us to measure, to obtain a thorough understanding of the relationships between structure and properties in silk as this is still lacking.
We are looking for solid-state NMR techniques that do not require spectral resolution and that are able to directly map the information that is being looked for.

 e-NMR.com: Information on Nuclear Magnetic Resonance, X-ray Crystallography
Technical barriers to NMR spectroscopy are diminishing and prospects are that NMR spectroscopy will eventually resolve protein structures up to 100,000 MW.
Another special advantage of NMR spectroscopy is its sensitivity to motions on the time scale of most chemical events, allowing direct examination of motions on the millisecond to second range and indirect studies of motions on the nanosecond to microsecond range.
Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy has a distinct advantage over X-ray crystallography in that crystallization, which is often difficult and sometimes impossible, is not necessary.

 RFA-RM-04-026: Membrane Protein Production and Structure Determination
Considerable research is ongoing in the area of membrane protein structure and function, yet relatively few investigators have applied the techniques of x-ray crystallography, electron diffraction, or NMR spectroscopy to study directly the structures of their proteins.
Membrane proteins are the targets of a large number of pharmacologically and toxicologically active substances and are responsible, in part, for their uptake, metabolism, and clearance.
Efficient methods are needed to characterize the functional state of the expressed and purified membrane proteins as well as their lipid and detergent contents, state of aggregation, physical homogeneity, and sequence microheterogeneity.

 Molecular Modeling Factsheet
Although most scientists choose high-priority structures as their targets, this theory provides the option to choose any one of the proteins within a family as the target, rather than trying to achieve experimental results using a protein that is particularly difficult to work with using crystallographic or NMR techniques.
Target structures determined experimentally may then be further analyzed to evaluate their similarity to other known protein structures and to determine possible evolutionary relationships that are not identifiable from protein sequence alone.
The secondary structure is generated by the folding of the primary sequence and refers to the path that the polypeptide backbone of the protein follows in space.
