Abstract:
Paramagnetic relaxation enhancement measurements in the denatured state of ACBP have provided distance restraints that have been used in computer simulations to determine the conformational ensembles representing the denatured states of ACBP under a variety of conditions. A detailed comparison of the residual structure in the denatured state of ACBP under these different conditions has enabled us to infer that regions in the N and C-terminal parts of the protein sequence have a high tendency to interact in the unfolded state under physiological conditions. By comparing the structural features in the denatured states with those in the transition state for folding we also provided new insights into the mechanism of formation of the native state of this protein.

As Δν decreases and the signals move closer, the doublets appear increasingly distorted. The intensities of the inner lines increase at the cost of those of the outer lines as the signals are slanted or...

Atomic Nuclei: Types of Nuclear Relaxation
In spin–lattice or longitudinal relaxation, the excited spins exchange energy with the surrounding lattice as they return to the lower energy level. Among several mechanisms that contribute to spin–lattice relaxation, magnetic dipolar interactions are significant. Here, the excited nucleus transfers energy to a nearby...
