Computational approaches to the interpretation of NMR data for studying protein dynamics

Abstract Experimental studies of protein structure and dynamics with NMR provide the classical example of the power of theoretical approaches for the interpretation of experimental results. In this paper we review recent developments in experimental techniques extending the applicability of NMR to the study of protein structure and motion, and advances in the theoretical description.
