Paramagnetic relaxation enhancement to improve sensitivity of fast NMR methods: application to intrinsically disordered proteins
Abstract We report enhanced sensitivity NMR measurements of intrinsically disordered proteins in the presence of paramagnetic relaxation enhancement (PRE) agents such as Ni2+-chelated DO2A. In proton-detected 1H-15N SOFAST-HMQC and carbon-detected (H-flip)13CO-15N experiments, faster longitudinal relaxation enables the usage of even shorter interscan delays. This results in higher NMR signal intensities per units of experimental time, without adverse line...

J Am Chem Soc. 2005 Sep 14;127(36):12620-6
Authors: Torizawa T, Ono AM, Terauchi T, Kainosho M
The unambiguous assignment of the aromatic ring resonances in proteins has been severely hampered by the inherently poor sensitivities of the currently available methodologies developed for uniformly 13C/15N-labeled...

J Mol Graph Model. 2001;19(1):3-12
Authors: Bracken C
The flexibility and dynamics of proteins directly influence the processes of protein folding, recognition, and function. NMR spin relaxation methods are used to assess the dynamics and mobility of proteins, for fast ps and ns motions as well as slower microsecond and ms events. The degree of protein...

Proteins exist not as singular structures with precise coordinates, but rather as fluctuating bodies that move rapidly through an enormous number of conformational substates. These dynamics have important implications for understanding protein function and for structure-based drug design. NMR spectroscopy is particularly well...

Established NMR methods are increasingly being applied to the non-native states of proteins. For small denatured proteins, full assignment of proton, 15N and 13C resonances is often straightforward. Sensitive methods exist...
