Abstract
van der Waals interactions are important to protein stability and function. These interactions are usually identified empirically based on protein 3D structures. In this work, we performed a solution nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy study of van der Waals interactions by detecting the through-space vdwJCC-coupling between protein aliphatic side chain groups. Specifically, vdwJCC-coupling values up to ~0.5 Hz were obtained between the methyl and nearby aliphatic groups in protein GB3, providing direct experimental evidence for the van der Waals interactions. Quantum mechanical calculations suggest that the J-coupling is correlated with the exchange-repulsion term of van der Waals interaction. NMR detection of vdwJCC-coupling offers a new tool to characterize such interactions in proteins.

13Cα decoupling during direct observation of carbonyl resonances in solution NMR of isotopically enriched proteins
Abstract
Direct detection of 13C can be advantageous when studying uniformly enriched proteins, in particular for paramagnetic proteins or when hydrogen exchange with solvent is fast. A scheme recently introduced for long-observation-window band-selective homonuclear decoupling in solid state NMR, LOW-BASHD (Struppe et al. in J Magn Reson 236:89â??94, 2013) is shown to be effective for 13Cα decoupling during direct 13Câ?² observation in...
