Probing Methyl Group Dynamics in Proteins by NMR Cross-Correlated Dipolar Relaxation and Molecular Dynamics Simulations
Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spin relaxation is the most informative approach to experimentally probe the internal dynamics of proteins on the picosecond to nanosecond time scale. At the same time, molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of biological macromolecules are steadily improving through better physical models, enhanced sampling methods, and increased computational power, and they provide exquisite information about flexibility and its role in protein stability and molecular...
