For the structural characterization methods discussed here, information on molecular conformation and intermolecular organization within nanostructured peptide assemblies is discerned through analysis of solid-state NMR spectral features. This chapter reviews general NMR methodologies, requirements for sample preparation, and specific descriptions of key experiments. An attempt is made to explain choices of solid-state NMR experiments and interpretation of results in a way that is approachable to a nonspecialist. Measurements are designed to determine precise NMR peak positions and line widths, which are correlated with secondary structures, and probe nuclear spin-spin interactions that report on three-dimensional organization of atoms. The formulation of molecular structural models requires rationalization of data sets obtained from multiple NMR experiments on samples with carefully chosen 13C and 15N isotopic labels. The information content of solid-state NMR data has been illustrated mostly through the use of simulated data sets and references to recent structural work on amyloid fibril-forming peptides and designer self-assembling peptides.

D010455 Peptides Members of the class of compounds composed of AMINO ACIDS joined together by peptide bonds between adjacent amino acids into linear, branched or cyclical structures. OLIGOPEPTIDES are composed of approximately 2-12 amino acids. Polypeptides are composed of approximately 13 or more amino acids. PROTEINS are considered to be larger versions of peptides that can form into complex structures such as ENZYMES and RECEPTORS. Peptide,Polypeptide,Polypeptides
