A new HSQC-based 13Cα CEST pulse scheme is proposed, which is suitable for uniformly 13C- or 13C, 15N-labeled samples in either water or heavy water. Except for Thr and Ser residues, the sensitivity of this scheme for uniformly labeled samples is similar to that of the previous scheme for selectively 13Cα-labeled samples with 100Â*% isotope enrichment. The experiment is demonstrated on an acyl carrier protein domain. Our 13Cα CEST data reveal that the minor state of the acyl carrier protein has high helical propensity. The new scheme will facilitate structural characterization of invisible minor states.

C4â?²/H4â?² selective, non-uniformly sampled 4D HC(P)CH experiment for sequential assignments of 13C-labeled RNAs
Abstract
A through bond, C4â?²/H4â?² selective, â??out and stayâ?? type 4D HC(P)CH experiment is introduced which provides sequential connectivity via H4â?²(i)â??C4â?²(i)â??C4â?²(iâ??1)â??H4â?²(iâ??1) correlations. The 31P dimension (used in the conventional 3D HCP experiment) is replaced with evolution of better dispersed C4â?² dimension. The experiment fully utilizes 13C-labeling of RNA by inclusion of two C4â?² evolution periods. An...

Recent structural studies of uniformly 15N, 13C-labeled proteins by solid state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) rely principally on two sources of structural restraints: (i) restraints on backbone conformation from isotropic 15N and 13C chemical shifts, based on empirical correlations between chemical shifts and...

An intraresidual i(HCA)CO(CA)NH experiment for the assignment of main-chain resonances in 15N, 13C labeled proteins
An intraresidual i(HCA)CO(CA)NH experiment for the assignment of main-chain resonances in 15N, 13C labeled proteins
Abstract An improved pulse sequence, intraresidual i(HCA)CO(CA)NH, is described for establishing solely 13Câ?²(i), 15N(i), 1HN(i) connectivities in uniformly 15N/13C-labeled proteins. In comparison to the â??out-and-backâ?? style intra-HN(CA)CO experiment, the new pulse sequence offers at least two-fold higher experimental resolution in the 13Câ?² dimension and on average 1.6 times higher sensitivity especially for residues in α-helices. Performance of the new experiment...
