Ultra-slow dynamics in low density amorphous ice revealed by deuteron NMR: indication of a glass transition.
The postulated glass-liquid transition of low density amorphous ice (LDA) is investigated with deuteron NMR stimulated echo experiments. Such experiments give access to ultra-slow reorientations of water molecules on time scales expected for structural relaxation of glass formers close to the glass-liquid transition temperature. An involved data analysis is necessary to account for signal contr...
متن کاملGlassy dynamics of protein folding.
A coarse-grained model of a random polypeptide chain, with only discrete torsional degrees of freedom and Hookean springs connecting pairs of hydrophobic residues is shown to display stretched exponential relaxation under Metropolis dynamics at low temperatures with the exponent beta approximately 1/4, in agreement with the best experimental results. The time dependent correlation functions for...
متن کاملMotional heterogeneity in single-site silica-supported species revealed by deuteron NMR.
The molecular dynamics of [-SiDMe(2)] grafted on two amorphous silica materials, mesoporous SBA and non-porous Aerosil, was investigated by deuteron ((2)H) solid-state NMR spectroscopy. Quadrupole echo (QE), quadrupole Carr-Purcell-Meiboom-Gill (QCPMG) and magic angle spinning (MAS) spectra were recorded as a function of temperature. These were analyzed to determine the rates and trajectories o...
متن کاملSpecific Isotopic Labeling of Methyl Groups has Extended the Molecular Weight Limits for NMR Studies of Protein Structure and Dynamics
Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy has emerged as the preeminent tool in solution studies of protein structure1-3, dynamics1, 4-10, and intermolecular interactions11-14. A key limitation, however, was that only relatively small proteins could be studied. Recent advances in isotope labeling15-17, the development of TROSY-based methods18, and the advent of cryogenic probes19 have exten...
متن کاملDifferential dynamics in the G protein-coupled receptor rhodopsin revealed by solution NMR.
G protein-coupled receptors are cell-surface seven-helical membrane proteins that undergo conformational changes on activation. The mammalian photoreceptor, rhodopsin, is the best-studied member of this superfamily. Here, we provide the first evidence that activation in rhodopsin may involve differential dynamic properties of side-chain versus backbone atoms. High-resolution NMR studies of alph...
