“…In particular, since the pioneering work of Brown and Wfithrich (Brown and WiJthrich, 1981;Brown et al, 1982), many studies have been performed on detergent-solubilized peptides and small proteins by ~H 2D NMR (for a review see Opella and McDonnell (1993)). This has led to the structure determination of several membrane peptides (Arseniev et al, 1985;Inagaki et al, 1989), small membrane proteins (Maurer and Riiterjans, 1994) and fragments of larger membrane proteins (Pervushin et al, 1991;Lomize et al, 1992;Macquaire et al, 1993). All these studies have invariably used deuterated detergent in order to fully observe the protein ~H resonances.…”
