Solid State NMR Spectroscopy for Biopolymers: Principles and Applications by Isa

Description: Solid State NMR Spectroscopy for Biopolymers by Isao Ando, Hazime Saitô, Akira Naito Biopolymers are polymeric materials of biological origin, including globular, membrane, and fibrous proteins, polypeptides, nucleic acids, po- saccharides, lipids, etc. FORMAT Hardcover LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description Biopolymers are polymeric materials of biological origin, including globular, membrane, and fibrous proteins, polypeptides, nucleic acids, po- saccharides, lipids, etc. and their assembly, although preference to respe- ive subjects may be different among readers who are more interested in their biological significance or industrial and/or medical applications. Nevert- less, characterizing or revealing their secondary structure and dynamics may be an equally very important and useful issue for both kinds of readers. Special interest in revealing the 3D structure of globular proteins, nucleic acids, and peptides was aroused in relation to the currently active Structural Biology. X-ray crystallography and multidimensional solution NMR sp- troscopy have proved to be the standard and indispensable means for this purpose. There remain, however, several limitations to this end, if one intends to expand its scope further. This is because these approaches are not always straightforward to characterize fibrous or membrane proteins owing to extreme difficulty in crystallization in the former, and insufficient spectral resolution due to sparing solubility or increased effective molecular mass in the presence of surrounding lipid bilayers in the latter. Notes When considering the biological significance and industrial and medical applications of biopolymers, it is crucial to know details of their secondary structure, dynamics and assembly. Solid state NMR spectroscopy has proved to be the most suitable and unrivaled means for investigations of biopolymers. Special efforts have been made to include the historical and chronological consequences of a variety of applications and the dynamic aspects of the biopolymer system. In particular, the authors emphasise how important it is to record the simplest DD-MAS as a mean of locating very flexible portions of membrane proteins and membrane associated peptides. The authors also demonstrate that dynamic features of membrane proteins with a timescale of fast and intermediate fluctuation motions can be revealed easily by specific suppression of peaks. Back Cover Solid State NMR Spectroscopy for Biopolymers Principles and Applications by Hazime Sait Table of Contents Part I: Principles: Solid state NMR approach: CP-MAS and DD-MAS NMR.- Quadrupolar nuclei.- Brief outline of NMR parameters: Chemical shifts.- Relaxation parameters.- Dynamics-dependent suppression of peaks.- Multinuclear approaches: 31P NMR.- 2H NMR.- 17O NMR.- Experimental strategies: Isotope enrichment (labeling).- Assignment of peaks.- Ultra high-field and ultra high-speed MAS NMR spectroscopy.- NMR constraints for structural determination: Orientational constraint.- Interatomic distance.- Torsion angles.- Conformation-dependent 13C chemical shifts.- Dynamics: Fast motions with motional frequency >106 Hz.- Intermediate or slow motions with frequency between 106 and 103 Hz.- Very slow motions with frequency Review From the reviews:"This book surveys much of the current research in the area of biological solid-state NMR spectroscopy, and as such should be of great interest to the chemical, biochemical, and biophysical communities. The level is appropriate for graduate students, and the book would be an excellent textbook for a graduate level course in biological solid-state NMR spectroscopy. Its publication is timely considering the recent numerous developments in this area … ." (Michele Auger, Journal of the American Chemical Society, Vol. 129 (10), 2007) Long Description When considering the biological significance and industrial and medical applications of biopolymers, it is crucial to know details of their secondary structure, dynamics and assembly. The biopolymers include globular, membrane and fibrous proteins, polypeptides, nucleic acids, polysaccharides and lipids. Solid state NMR spectroscopy has proved to be the most suitable and unrivaled means for investigations of biopolymers. The major advantage of solid state NMR spectroscopy is that the resulting line widths can be manipulated experimentally and are not influenced by motional fluctuation of proteins under consideration as a whole. Solid State NMR Spectroscopy for Biopolymers: Principles and Applications provides a comprehensive account on how the conformation and dynamics of such biopolymers can be revealed by solid state NMR spectroscopy. Special efforts have been made towards the historical and chronological consequences of a variety of applications and the dynamic aspects of the biopolymer system. In particular, the authors emphasise how important it is to record the most simple DD-MAS (one pulse excitation with high power decoupling) as a mean of locating very flexible portions of membrane proteins and membrane associated peptides. The authors also demonstrate that dynamic features of membrane proteins with a timescale of fast (108 Hz) and intermediate (104 -105 Hz) fluctuation motions can be revealed easily by specific suppression of peaks.

(Michele Auger, Journal of the American Chemical Society, Vol. 129 (10), 2007) Feature Uniquely presents a comprehensive account of solid state NMR with an emphasis on revealing secondary structure and dynamics in relation to biological functions. Biopolymers-oriented, not just methodology-oriented. Not a compilation of recent progress on solid state NMR, as often attempted by other authors. Focuses on characterization, revealing secondary structure and dynamics as revealed by solid-state NMR. Emphasis on the chronological account of such studies.
