Abstract:
Established NMR methods are increasingly being applied to the non-native states of proteins. For small denatured proteins, full assignment of proton, 15N and 13C resonances is often straightforward. Sensitive methods exist for detecting fractionally populated alpha helices and beta strands, but defining transient interactions among side chains is proving more problematic. The non-native states of several small proteins are being intensively investigated to address a number of questions about protein folding.

Proteomics is the study of proteomes' function. It involves the large-scale systematic study of the proteome to denote the protein complement expressed by a genome. Scientist Mark Wilkins coined the term proteomics...

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...
