Funded Activity Summary

New Methods for Structural Biology in Solution. This project aims to expand the range of applications of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy in pharmaceutical research, where NMR spectroscopy is already used routinely for the identification of chemical compounds that bind to protein targets. The techniques developed aim at providing rapid and broadly applicable tools for 3D structure determinations of chemical compounds bound to their protein target, identification of protein-protein interaction sites and characterization of protein motions. The limits of NMR spectroscopy will be pushed to analyse systems of significantly increased molecular weights. The project includes applications to drug targets such as the dengue virus NS2B/NS3 protease.
