Department of Chemistry BBSRC DTP student Adrian Murgoci and his supervisor Professor Melinda Duer's paper 'Molecular conformations and dynamics in the extracellular matrix of mammalian structural tissues: Solid-state NMR spectroscopy approaches', has recently been published in the Science Directs' 'Matrix Biology journal.

The highlights are: 

  • Solid-state NMR spectroscopy probes molecular conformation and dynamics in intact ECM.
  • Collagen conformational dynamics has roles in mechanical properties of fibrils and cell adhesion.
  • Solid-state NMR spectroscopy has shed new light on  the chemical structure of bone mineral.
