Recent advances in quantifying protein conformational ensembles with dipolar EPR spectroscopy
This perspective highlights recent applications and technological progress in dipolar electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy, including double electron–electron resonance (DEER) spectroscopy. These methods provide nanoscale distance distributions between site-specific spin labels in biomacromolecules. The resulting data are particularly well suited for quantifying the structure and energetics of conformational ensembles of multi-state and flexible proteins. Recent applications span a wide range of systems and are accompanied by innovations in spin labeling, deuteration, in-cell measurements, integrative multi-technique approaches, and novel computational modeling methods combined with structure prediction tools.
期刊介绍:
Current Opinion in Structural Biology (COSB) aims to stimulate scientifically grounded, interdisciplinary, multi-scale debate and exchange of ideas. It contains polished, concise and timely reviews and opinions, with particular emphasis on those articles published in the past two years. In addition to describing recent trends, the authors are encouraged to give their subjective opinion of the topics discussed.
In COSB, we help the reader by providing in a systematic manner:
1. The views of experts on current advances in their field in a clear and readable form.
2. Evaluations of the most interesting papers, annotated by experts, from the great wealth of original publications.
[...]
The subject of Structural Biology is divided into twelve themed sections, each of which is reviewed once a year. Each issue contains two sections, and the amount of space devoted to each section is related to its importance.
-Folding and Binding-
Nucleic acids and their protein complexes-
Macromolecular Machines-
Theory and Simulation-
Sequences and Topology-
New constructs and expression of proteins-
Membranes-
Engineering and Design-
Carbohydrate-protein interactions and glycosylation-
Biophysical and molecular biological methods-
Multi-protein assemblies in signalling-
Catalysis and Regulation
