Measurement method of nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy that allows detection of transient binding of small molecule ligands to macromolecular receptors.
Note:
Range of applicable dissociation constants is approximately 103 M to 108 M. The experiment relies on ligand-signal attenuation through spin diffusion saturation propagating from the macromolecule.
