Abstract

We study the conformational freedom of a protein made by two rigid domains connected by a flexible linker. The conformational freedom is represented as an unknown probability distribution on the space of allowed states. A new algorithm for the calculation of the maximum allowable probability is proposed, which can be extended to any type of measurements. In this paper we use pseudo contact shifts and residual dipolar coupling. We reconstruct a single central tendency in the distribution and discuss in depth the results.
