High‐Resolution NMR Determination of the Dynamic Structure of Membrane Proteins
(15)N spin‐relaxation rates are demonstrated to provide critical information about the long‐range structure and internal motions of membrane proteins. Combined with an improved calculation method, the relaxation‐rate‐derived structure of the 283‐residue human voltage‐dependent anion channel revealed...

Sumario: | (15)N spin‐relaxation rates are demonstrated to provide critical information about the long‐range structure and internal motions of membrane proteins. Combined with an improved calculation method, the relaxation‐rate‐derived structure of the 283‐residue human voltage‐dependent anion channel revealed an anisotropically shaped barrel with a rigidly attached N‐terminal helix. Our study thus establishes an NMR spectroscopic approach to determine the structure and dynamics of mammalian membrane proteins at high accuracy and resolution. |
