This is because proteins form attachments and interact with many other molecules and structures inside organisms. The shape of a protein determines what it can interact with, just like the shape ...
If the NMR data collection for a 120 residue protein takes 4–5 weeks on a 600 MHz spectrometer and if automated data processing takes 1 day, 120 structures can be determined in 1 year by 12 ...
Proteins are composed of one or more chains of amino acids, which are linked together by peptide bonds and folded into specific three-dimensional structures. Proteins have four levels of structure: ...
Crucially, the approach works even with the predicted structures of proteins that have never been experimentally determined. It has implications for the massive amount of structural data being ...
