Deuterium rotating frame solid-state NMR relaxation measurements (²H R(1?)) are important tools in quantitative studies of molecular dynamics. We demonstrate how ²H to ^(13)C cross-polarization (CP) approaches under 10-40 kHz magic angle spinning rates can be combined with the ²H R(1?) blocks to allow for extension of deuterium rotating frame relaxation studies to methyl groups in biomolecules. This extension permits detection on the ^(13)C nuclei and, hence, for the achievement of site-specific...
[NMR paper] Protein dynamics detected by magic-angle spinning relaxation dispersion NMR
Protein dynamics detected by magic-angle spinning relaxation dispersion NMR
Magic-angle spinning (MAS) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) is establishing itself as a powerful method for the characterization of protein dynamics at the atomic scale. We discuss here how R(1?) MAS relaxation dispersion NMR can explore microsecond-to-millisecond motions. Progress in instrumentation, isotope labeling, and pulse sequence design has paved the way for quantitative analyses of even rare structural fluctuations. In addition to isotropic chemical-shift fluctuations exploited in...

[NMR paper] Proton Detected Solid-State NMR of Membrane Proteins at 28 Tesla (1.2 GHz) and 100 kHz Magic-Angle Spinning
Proton Detected Solid-State NMR of Membrane Proteins at 28 Tesla (1.2 GHz) and 100 kHz Magic-Angle Spinning
The available magnetic field strength for high resolution NMR in persistent superconducting magnets has recently improved from 23.5 to 28 Tesla, increasing the proton resonance frequency from 1 to 1.2 GHz. For magic-angle spinning (MAS) NMR, this is expected to improve resolution, provided the sample preparation results in homogeneous broadening. We compare two-dimensional (2D) proton detected MAS NMR spectra of four membrane proteins at 950 and 1200 MHz. We find a consistent...
