Exploring Protein-Glycan Interactions: Advances in Nuclear Magnetic Resonance

This NMR-based protocol investigates weak protein-glycan interactions using cyanovirin-N and D-mannose. Combining ligand- and protein-detected methods, it maps binding sites, detects allosteric effects, and identifies encounter complexes. The approach outlines sample preparation and data analysis, offering structural and dynamic insights valuable for glycan-specific diagnostics and recognition...

¹H NMR of Conformationally Flexible Molecules: Variable-Temperature NMR

The axial and equatorial protons in cyclohexane can be distinguished by performing a variable-temperature NMR experiment. In this process, except for one proton, the remaining eleven protons are replaced by deuterium. The deuterium substitution avoids the possible peak splitting caused by the spin-spin coupling between the adjacent protons. The remaining proton flips between the axial and equatorial positions.

High-Pressure NMR Experiments for Detecting Protein Low-Lying Conformational States

We provide a detailed description of the steps required to assemble a high-pressure cell, set up and record high-pressure NMR experiments, and finally analyze both peak intensity and chemical shift changes under pressure. These experiments can provide valuable insights into the folding pathways and structural stability of...
