1. The document discusses several techniques for determining protein structure like X-ray crystallography, NMR spectroscopy, and cryo-electron microscopy. 2. Site-directed spin labeling and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy are introduced as techniques to study the functional dynamics and interactions within proteins over different time scales. 3. EPR provides information about the local environment and dynamics of spin labels attached to specific sites within a protein, but the technique has limitations in resolution due to the nature of chemical modification and spin label dynamics.
