New methods for structure analysis of proteins and protein interactions. This project will advance nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) technologies pioneered at the Australian National University which employ site-specific attachment of paramagnetic metal tags to proteins. A new and diverse set of strategies will dramatically extend the range of applications to targets of interest in the fight against cancer and bacterial infections.
