An NMR NOAH-supersequence is presented consisting of five CEST experiments for studying protein backbone and side-chain dynamics by ^(15)N-CEST, carbonyl-^(13)CO-CEST, aromatic-^(13)C(ar)-CEST, ^(13)C(?)-CEST, and methyl-^(13)C(met)-CEST. The new sequence acquires the data for these experiments in a fraction of the time required for the individual experiments, saving over four days of NMR time per sample.

NOAH-(15N/13C)-CEST NMR supersequence for dynamics studies of biomolecules
An NMR supersequence is introduced for the rapid acquisition of ^(15)N-CEST and methyl-^(13)C-CEST experiments in the same pulse sequence for applications to proteins. The high sensitivity and accuracy allows the simultaneous quantitative characterization of backbone and side-chain dynamics on the millisecond timescale ideal for routine screening for alternative protein states.

Exchangeable deuterons introduce artifacts in amide 15 N CEST experiments used to study protein conformational exchange
Exchangeable deuterons introduce artifacts in amide 15 N CEST experiments used to study protein conformational exchange
Abstract
Protein molecules sample different conformations in solution and characterizing these conformations is crucial to understanding protein function. 15N CEST experiments are now routinely used to study slow conformational exchange of protein molecules between a ā??visibleā?? major state and ā??invisibleā?? minor states. These experiments have also been adapted to measure the solvent exchange rates of amide protons by exploiting...

Proteins are intrinsically dynamic molecules and undergo exchanges among multiple conformations to perform biological functions. The CPMG relaxation dispersion and CEST experiments are two important solution NMR techniques for characterizing the conformational exchange processes...

Longitudinal relaxation optimized amide 1 H-CEST experiments for studying slow chemical exchange processes in fully protonated proteins
Longitudinal relaxation optimized amide 1 H-CEST experiments for studying slow chemical exchange processes in fully protonated proteins
Abstract
Chemical Exchange Saturation Transfer (CEST) experiments are increasingly used to study slow timescale exchange processes in biomolecules. Although 15N- and 13C-CEST have been the approaches of choice, the development of spin state selective 1H-CEST pulse sequences that separate the effects of chemical and dipolar exchange significantly increases the utility of 1H-based experiments. Pulse schemes have been...

Triple resonance-based 13 C Ī± and 13 C Ī² CEST experiments for studies of ms timescale dynamics in proteins
Triple resonance-based 13 C Ī± and 13 C Ī² CEST experiments for studies of ms timescale dynamics in proteins
Abstract
A pair of triple resonance based CEST pulse schemes are presented for measuring 13CĪ± and 13CĪ² chemical shifts of sparsely populated and transiently formed conformers that are invisible to traditional NMR experiments. CEST profiles containing dips at resonance positions of 13CĪ± or 13CĪ² spins of major (ground) and minor (excited) conformers are obtained in a pseudo 3rd dimension that is generated by quantifying modulations of cross...
