Protein dynamics from NMR

Nature Structural Biology volume 5, pages 513–517 (1998)Cite this article

Abstract

In the past several years a significant number of new multidimensional NMR methods have been developed to study molecular dynamics spanning a wide range of time scales. Applications involving a large number of biological systems have emerged and correlations with function established. Unique insights are obtained that are not available from structure alone, indicating the importance of dynamics studies for understanding function.
