Study of the Three-Dimensional Structure of Tryptophan Zipper Peptides through 1H NMR Chemical Shifts Calculations
Ana Carolina de Albuquerque,
Fernando dos Santos Jr
Abstract:Three-dimensional structures of proteins are intimately linked to their functions, therefore understanding their conformation in solution is essential. While nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography are widely employed for protein structural determination, their limitations make the process challenging and expensive. Theoretical calculations of chemical shifts present a potential complement to experimental techniques, facilitating the study of protein structures. This investigation aim… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
