In my thesis I shall focus on the development of new NMR experimental methods to study structure and internal motions of two kinds of biological polymers, viz. proteins and nucleic acids. I shall investigate the anisotropic local motions of peptide planes ...
Internal motions in proteins, such as oscillations of internuclear vectors u(NiHiN) of amide bonds about their equil. position, can be characterized by a local order parameter. This dynamic parameter can be detd. exptl. by measuring the longitudinal and tr ...
In this paper some effects of dynamical coupling between two interaction-carrying vectors on the internal auto- and cross-correlation functions are investigated in the limit of small amplitude motions. A linearized Langevin approach allows the derivation o ...
Small diffusion coeffs. can be measured by using populations of singlet states that have a relaxation time const., Ts, which can be much longer than the longitudinal relaxation time, T1. Spatial information can be encoded with pulsed field gradients in the ...
A detailed analysis of nitrogen-15 longitudinal relaxation times in microcrystalline proteins is presented. A theoretical model to quantitatively interpret relaxation times is developed in terms of motional amplitude and characteristic time scale. Differen ...
Major urinary protein (MUP) is a pheromone-carrying protein of the lipocalin family. Previous studies by isothermal titrn. calorimetry (ITC) show that the affinity of MUP for the pheromone 2-methoxy-3-isobutylpyrazine (IBMP) is mainly driven by enthalpy, w ...
A spectrometer allowing the measurement of signals with spin-spin relaxation times as short as 0.5 μs has been developed. It consists of a transmitter based on a commercial spectrometer and a homemade receiver. The acquired signals are imported in the soft ...
A new NMR method has been designed for the measurement of the longitudinal relaxation rates of both donor and acceptor nitrogen-15 nuclei in Watson-Crick base pairs in 15N-enriched nucleic acids. The expt. was applied to a 22-nucleotide RNA hairpin. The le ...
We have used electrically detected magnetic resonance (EDMR) to study the spin dependent processes on the operation of diodes based on poly(2-metoxy-5-(2'-etil-hexiloxy)-1,4-phenylene vinylene) (MEH-PPV) and on tris-8-hydroxyquinoline-aluminum (Alq3
We performed an Eu153 and Eu151 NMR study of EuO and Gd doped EuO using a home-made spectrometer designed to measure signals with fast spin-spin relaxation times. We determined and described the broadening mechanisms giving rise to the structure in the lin ...
