MAS NMR spectroscopy can be used to determine structures of membrane proteins when reconstituted in synthetic lipids, which are a mimic for the natural membrane. A number of experimentally determined interatomic distances and local torsional restraints were used to solve the structure of an oligomeric membrane protein of common seven-helical fold, Anabaena sensory rhodopsin. ... 

More recently several other bacterial rhodopsins such as proteorhodopsin and Anabaena sensory rhodopsin (ASR) have been investigated with solid-state NMR. Remarkable spectral resolution and sensitivity resulting in nearly complete resonance... 

Fig. 7 Trimer model of S26CR1 Anabaena sensory rhodopsin (ASR). The individual monomers are shown in different colors. R1 side chains are shown in blue. Side chains of residues experiencing large intermolecular paramagnetic relaxation enhancement (PRE) effects and therefore spatially close (< 15 A) to the nitroxide of a neighboring monomer are shown in magenta.
