X Abstract

Heteronuclear dipole-to-dipole cross-relaxation has been applied to exploring intermolecular interactions and intramolecular spatial proximities in a large supramolecular structure comprised of a beta-barrel membrane protein, OmpX, in complex with a polymeric surfactant, amphipol A8-35. The experiments, performed in either the laboratory or the rotating frame, reveal the existence of intermolecular contacts between aromatic amino acids and specific groups of the polymer, in addition to intra-protein dipolar interactions, some of them involving carbonyl carbons. This study opens the perspective of collecting by NMR spectroscopy a new kind of through-space structural information involving aromatic and carbonyl (13)C atoms of large proteins.

CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
