Macromolecular NMR

Macromolecular NMR (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance) is a technique used by scientists to study large biological molecules like proteins and DNA. It involves placing these molecules in a strong magnetic field and using radio waves to detect tiny signals from their atomic nuclei. By analyzing these signals, researchers can determine the three-dimensional structure, dynamics, and interactions of the molecules in solution. This information helps us understand how these molecules function in living organisms, aiding in drug development and biomedical research. Despite the complexity, it provides detailed insights into molecular behavior at an atomic level.
