J Am Chem Soc 123 (2001) 8895-8901. This article describes an in-cell NMR method that was developed to enable one to observe protein conformations inside living cells. Rifampicin was used to suppress bacterial protein synthesis and to allow expression of the protein of interest that was under the control of a T7 promoter.
