Special Issue Published: Advanced NMR in Contemporary China

Out of all the scientific communities in the world today, few are as active as that of China. This is also true for the field of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), where Chinese scientists are making unique contributions, that are not often seen with sufficient clarity in the rest of the world. To present a multi-dimensional and panoramic view of the thriving achievements made by Chinese scientists in NMR research, Magnetic Resonance Letters (MRL) and the Journal of Magnetic Resonance Open (JMRO) have teamed up, to co-edit the special Golden Open Access issue entitled “Advanced NMR in Contemporary China”.

Featured Papers:

• ¹⁹F NMR study of proteins with parallel incorporation of multiple fluorinated aromatic amino acids
• The rise of NMR-integrated fragment-based drug discovery in China
• Dynamic nuclear polarization and chemically induced hyperpolarization: Progress, mechanisms, and opportunities
• Unraveling boron-organic template interactions in [B, Al]-ZSM-5 zeolite using solid-state NMR spectroscopy
• Measurement of protein non-covalent interactions in buffer and cells
• Applications of nuclear magnetic resonance in exploring structure and energy storage mechanism of supercapacitors
• An amphiphilic peptide with unnatural amino acids as an alignment medium for RDC measurements
• Distinct association of HRAS and KRAS with Mn²⁺ ion illustrated by paramagnetic NMR
• In-cell dehydration of sodium manganese hexacyanoferrate cathode revealed by solid-state NMR
• Advances in solid-state NMR methods for studying RNA structures and dynamics

 We hope you enjoy reading this special issue.
