In line with modern bioNMR spectroscopy we are dedicated to determine macromolecular structures, especially those of peptides and proteins, elucidate internal dynamics, binding properties, chemical shift mapping, macromolecular interactions, folding and unfolding, etc.. We are providing high quality atomic detail information on polypeptides, miniproteins, protein modules and domains, unstructured proteins (IUP/IDP), etc.. We are helping and providing expertise and disseminate NMR based knowledge to chemists and biochemists, a molecular insight into their current investigation and thus to bring out the most of their research.

    CoverA fascinating story on the smallest folded protein ever studied: structural insights into the Trp-cage folding intermediate formation. A multi-state folding scenario of a miniprotein at atomic details. By using a novel non-linear fitting method both the thermodynamic parameters and the NMR chemical shifts of the conformers of the multi-state unfolding process is revealed. link
