A convenient in vitro chemical ligation strategy has been developed that allows folded recombinant proteins to be joined together. This strategy permits segmental, selective isotopic labeling of the product. The src homology type 3 and 2 domains (SH3 and SH2) of Abelson protein tyrosine kinase, which constitute the regulatory apparatus of the protein, were individually prepared in reactive forms that can be ligated together under normal protein-folding conditions to form a normal peptide bond at the ligation junction. This strategy was used to prepare NMR sample quantities of the Abelson protein tyrosine kinase-SH(32) domain pair, in which only one of the domains was labeled with 15N. Mass spectrometry and NMR analyses were used to confirm the structure of the ligated protein, which was also shown to have appropriate ligand-binding properties. The ability to prepare recombinant proteins with selectively labeled segments having a single-site mutation, by using a combination of expression of fusion proteins and chemical ligation in vitro, will increase the size limits for protein structural determination in solution with NMR methods. In vitro chemical ligation of expressed protein domains will also provide a combinatorial approach to the synthesis of linked protein domains.

A segmental labeling strategy for unambiguous determination of domainā??domain interactions of large multi-domain proteins
Abstract NMR structural determination of large multi-domain proteins is a challenging task due to significant spectral overlap with a particular difficulty in unambiguous identification of domainā??domain interactions. Segmental labeling is a NMR strategy that allows for isotopically labeling one domain and leaves the other domain unlabeled. This significantly simplifies spectral overlaps and allows for quick identification of domainā??domain interaction. Here, a...

31P NMR correlation maps of 18O/16O chemical shift isotopic effects for phosphometabolite labeling studies
31P NMR correlation maps of 18O/16O chemical shift isotopic effects for phosphometabolite labeling studies
Abstract Intramolecular correlations among the 18O-labels of metabolic oligophosphates, mapped by J-decoupled 31P NMR 2D chemical shift correlation spectroscopy, impart stringent constraints to the 18O-isotope distributions over the whole oligophosphate moiety. The multiple deduced correlations of isotopic labels enable determination of site-specific fractional isotope enrichments and unravel the isotopologue statistics. This approach ensures accurate determination of 18O-labeling...

Recent advances in segmental isotope labeling of proteins: NMR applications to large proteins and glycoproteins
Abstract In the last 15 years substantial advances have been made to place isotope labels in native and glycosylated proteins for NMR studies and structure determination. Key developments include segmental isotope labeling using Native Chemical Ligation, Expressed Protein Ligation and Protein Trans-Splicing. These advances are pushing the size limit of NMR spectroscopy further making larger proteins accessible for this technique. It is just emerging that segmental isotope...

Journal of Biomolecular NMR; 2008; 42(1); pp 59-67
Abstract:
A simple and user-friendly method of labeling protein selectively with amino acids in vivo is introduced. This technique does not require the use of transaminase-deficient or auxotrophic strains. By manipulating the product feedback inhibitory loops of the E. coli amino acid metabolic pathways and, if necessary, by using enzyme inhibitors, proteins were labeled efficiently in vivo...
