title: TROSY and CRINEPT: NMR with large molecular and supramolecular structures in solution.
abstract: TROSY and CRINEPT are new techniques for solution NMR studies of molecular and supramolecular structures. They allow the collection of high-resolution spectra of structures with molecular weights >100 kDa, significantly extending the range of macromolecular systems that can be studied by NMR in solution. TROSY has already been used to map protein-protein interfaces, to conduct structural studies on membrane proteins and to study nucleic acid conformations in multimolecular assemblies. These techniques will help us to investigate the conformational states of individual macromolecular components and will support de novo protein structure determination in large supramolecular structures.
