X-ray co-ordinates for the complex between the enzyme HIV-1 protease and Amprenavir Structural method - X-ray diffraction (3) l2PHA406 - Drug Design
NMR ensemble of BLK SH2 domain (a tyrosine kinase anti-cancer target comprising 20 structures, distance geometry solutions of NOE, nuclear overhauser enhancement experiments) Structural method - Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (4) l2PHA406 - Drug Design
Structural method - Atomic Force Microscopy (5) A membrane protein from E.coli (a porin controlling osmotic environment) (a) High resolution topograph of the perisplasmic surface of 2-D OmpF porin crystals. The average shown was calculated from 25 translationally aligned subframes. To allow comparison, the electron density based on the X-ray structure of the OmpF trimer was rendered at a lateral resolution of 15Å. Zebra-like contours (dark and light blue) on the overlaid transparent AFM topograph mark zones of identical altitude, with a height difference between contours of 1Å. (b) Atomic model of protein-protein and lipid-protein interactions based on the X-ray structure of the porin trimer (from http://www.mih.unibas.ch/Booklet/Booklet96/Chapter3/Chapter3.html) l2PHA406 - Drug Design
Structural method - Cryo-electron microscopy (6) A bacterial ‘molecular chaperone’ complex (GroEL-GroES) which is ATP dependent changes it state. The apical chains interact with other proteins undergoing protein folding duration ‘maturation’ on being released from their synthetic apparatus. l2PHA406 - Drug Design
