51 Principle used in our current approach to structure determination of membrane proteins: spinnin. And you know that tilt-a-whirl down on the south beach drag I got on it last night and my shirt got caught And that joey kept me spinnin I didn t think I d ever get off" Springsteen, B. (1973) 4 th of July, Asbury Park / Sandy

52 Background for the method. The effect of rotational diffusion on chemical shift powder patterns was among the first topics studied by high-resolution solid-state NMR. The angular constraints measured from mechanically, magnetically, and rotationally aligned samples are equivalent. The principal values of static and motionally averaged powder patterns can be determined from unoriented samples using MAS solid-state NMR. Uniformly 13 C and 15 N labeled proteins are readily expressed and purified from E. coli. 13 C-detection improves sensitivity. Assignment schemes that walk down the backbone. All backbone and side chain sites accessible for complete structure determination.

53 The basic principle is the effect of rotational diffusion on powder patterns: the sign of axial symmetry and reduction in frequency span are determined by the angle of rotation. dipole- dipole coupling chemical shi1 anisotropy Structural Investigations by Means of Nuclear Magnetism.

83 Advantages of this NMR method for determining the structures of membrane proteins. The protein resides in a native environment of liquid crystalline phospholipid bilayers under physiological conditions of temperature and ph. Unmodified protein sequence; no truncations, mutations, or insertion of foreign proteins. Protein is active under the experimental conditions. Can vary composition of lipids, add cholesterol, etc. No stabilizing small molecules or antibody fragments. Atomic resolution structures. Can add drugs, effectors, antibody fragments, etc. by adding them to the proteoliposome sample for direct spectroscopic comparisons.
