In this study published in @natcomms.nature.com we used #PELDOR #DEER #EPR spectroscopy to monitor the entire pH-dependent conformational ensemble of the membrane SbmA peptide transporter

Great effort by @yuemauom.bsky.social and collaboration with @ackermannkatrin.bsky.social @belab.bsky.social group. Research performed in @mcf-uom.bsky.social @uommib.bsky.social @fbmh-uom.bsky.social
In our study in @natcomms.nature.com we used #EPR #DEER #PELDOR spectroscopy with single subunit heterologous spin labelling and monitored the entire cap conformational ensemble of the human mechanosensitive TRAAK channel and showed it adopts two states in membranes.

In our study @elife.bsky.social we uncover the mechanism of mPPase inhibition. Over 20x structures to date are in a symmetric form. We use EPR(PELDOR/DEER) and reveal asymmetric binding at the active site while maintaining symmetric conformation at periplasmic site

TRAAK is expressed in the nervous system and helps regulate neuronal excitability. Here, the authors use EPR to quantify the relative populations of TRAAK’s swapped and non-swapped cap states in membr...
