Pulsed EPR of Membrane Proteins


EMSL Project ID
13297

Abstract

The goal of this work is to establish relationships between the structural and functional features of paramagnetic membrane proteins and their complexes using pulsed EPR (Electron Paramagnetic Resonance) spectroscopy. Small magnetic interactions between spins near the paramagnetic center will be used to help determine structural features near the paramagnetic center and the shape and extent of the partially occcupied wavefunctions.
