Induction of z-conformation in ribosomal RNA by Z-DNA binding domain Zα of the human double-stranded RNA deaminase I (ADAR1) by Zhao, Jing

“…The main challenge to the classical NMR theory arises when one of the binding partners is so large that in the chemical shift time scale of solution NMR (milliseconds) it can be considered as practically static or solid-state-like. Therefore, our theoretical model shall predict whether the chemical shifts perturbations observed through the small binding partner can be used to delineate the involved binding interface, and whether changes of the positions of NMR resonances or only attenuation of the cross-peak intensities are to be expected upon binding to a solid partner.…”
