Primary Structure Effects on Peptide Group Hydrogen Exchange
TLDR
The results provide the information necessary to evaluate measured protein NH to ND exchange rates by comparing them with rates to be expected for the same amino acid sequence is unstructured aligo‐ and polypeptides.Abstract:
The rate of exchange of peptide group NH hydrogens with the hydrogens of aqueous solvent is sensitive to neighboring side chains. To evaluate the effects of protein side chains, all 20 naturally occurring amino acids were studied using dipeptide models. Both inductive and steric blocking effects are apparent. The additivity of nearest-neighbor blocking and inductive effects was tested in oligo- and polypeptides and, surprisingly, confirmed. Reference rates for alanine-containing peptides were determined and effects of temperature considered. These results provide the information necessary to evaluate measured protein NH to ND exchange rates by comparing them with rates to be expected for the same amino acid sequence is unstructured oligo- and polypeptides. The application of this approach to protein studies is discussed.read more

Cysteine-rich module structure reveals a fulcrum for integrin rearrangement upon activation.
TL;DR: This observation suggests that the highly bent αVβ3 structure represents the inactive conformation and that release of contacts with I-EGF modules 2 and 3 triggers a switchblade-like opening motion extending the integrin into its active conformation.

TL;DR: A novel procedure for characterizing the conformational flexibility of β2-microglobulin amyloid fibrils at single-residue resolution that uses H/D exchange of amide protons combined with NMR analysis indicates that most residues in the middle region of the molecule, including the loop regions in the native structure, form a rigid β-sheet core.

Proton exchange rates from amino acid side chains--implications for image contrast.
TL;DR: It is proposed that the contrast in MR images is a fingerprint of the number of the exchangeable protons from OH and NH groups of the tissue, as far as the contrast depends on the magnetization transfer between biomolecules and water.

Detection of rare partially folded molecules in equilibrium with the native conformation of RNaseH
TL;DR: Data suggest that the first region to fold is the thermodynamically most stable portion of the protein and that the molten globule is a high free energy conformation present at equilibrium in the native state.

TL;DR: Using long-timescale molecular dynamics simulations, it is found that the N lobe dimerization interface of the wild-type EGFR kinase domain is intrinsically disordered and that it becomes ordered only uponDimerization.

MLEV-17-based two-dimensional homonuclear magnetization transfer spectroscopy

TL;DR: In this article, a new mixing scheme based on the MLEV-16 composite pulse decoupling cycle (II) was proposed, which is less sensitive to pulse imperfections and provides net magnetization transfer over a substantial bandwidth with only limited rf power.

A two-dimensional nuclear overhauser enhancement (2d noe) experiment for the elucidation of complete proton-proton cross-relaxation networks in biological macromolecules
TL;DR: The 2D NOE experiment has the principal advantage that it avoids detrimental effects arising from the limited selectivity of preirradiation in crowded spectral regions, and yields with a single instrument setting a complete network of NOE's between all the protons in the macromolecule.
