X Abstract

Recent progress from our laboratories to determine structures of small membrane proteins (up to 20 kDa) in detergent micelles by solution nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) is reviewed. NMR opens a new window to also study, for the first time, the dynamics of membrane proteins. We report on recent attempts to correlate dynamic measurements on OmpA with the ion channel function of this protein. We also summarize how NMR and spin-label electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy and selective mutagenesis can be combined to provide a structural basis towards understanding the mechanism of influenza hemagglutinin-mediated membrane fusion.

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.
