A suite of 3D NMR experiments for measuring 15N-¿1H¿ NOE, 15N T1, and 15N T1rho values in large proteins, uniformly labeled with 15N and 13C, is presented. These experiments are designed for proteins that exhibit extensive spectral overlap in the 2D 1H-15N HSQC spectrum. The pulse sequences are readily applicable to perdeuterated samples, which increases the spectral resolution and signal-to-noise ratio, thereby permitting the characterization of protein dynamics to be extended to larger protein systems. Application of the pulse sequences is demonstrated on a perdeuterated 13C/15N-labeled sample of the 44 kDa ectodomain of SIV gp41.
Three-dimensional deuterium-carbon correlation experiments for high-resolution solid-state MAS NMR spectroscopy of large proteins
Three-dimensional deuterium-carbon correlation experiments for high-resolution solid-state MAS NMR spectroscopy of large proteins
Abstract Well-resolved 2Hâ??13C correlation spectra, reminiscent of 1Hâ??13C correlations, are obtained for perdeuterated ubiquitin and for perdeuterated outer-membrane protein G (OmpG) from E. coli by exploiting the favorable lifetime of 2H double-quantum (DQ) states. Sufficient signal-to-noise was achieved due to the short deuterium T 1, allowing for high repetition rates and enabling 3D experiments with a 2Hâ??13C transfer step in a reasonable time....

Paramagnetic relaxation enhancement to improve sensitivity of fast NMR methods: application to intrinsically disordered proteins
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...

Journal of Biomolecular NMR; 2007; 39(3) pp 239 - 245
Abstract:
Here we present a suite of pulse sequences for the measurement of 15N T1, T1ρ and NOE data that combine traditional TROSY-based pulse sequences with band-selective Hadamard frequency encoding. The additive nature of the Hadamard matrix produces much reduced resonance overlap without the need for an increase in the dimensionality of the experiment or a...
