During the past several years, there have been significant advances in NMR
solution structure determination of macromolecules. The ability to easily m
easure residual dipolar couplings, to directly detect NH...N hydrogen bondi
ng interactions and to study much larger macromolecules by the application
of heteronuclear experiments that select narrow lines in 2D and 3D spectra
of isotopically labeled molecules promises to dramatically improve solution
structure determination of nucleic acids.
