Fluorine-labelled proteins for NMR spectroscopy. The technique developed in this project has direct impact on pharmaceutical research: NMR spectroscopy is used routinely to identify chemical compounds that bind to protein targets. This project includes the development of novel assignment techniques of 19F-labelled proteins, so that 19F-NMR can be used to detect specific binding interactions. One of the methods proposed here is designed to reveal structural information about the binding mode in s ....Fluorine-labelled proteins for NMR spectroscopy. The technique developed in this project has direct impact on pharmaceutical research: NMR spectroscopy is used routinely to identify chemical compounds that bind to protein targets. This project includes the development of novel assignment techniques of 19F-labelled proteins, so that 19F-NMR can be used to detect specific binding interactions. One of the methods proposed here is designed to reveal structural information about the binding mode in solution with atomic detail. This knowledge can significantly accelerate drug development. It is otherwise only available from crystal structures that can not always be determined.Read moreRead less
