Large-scale protein structure determination by NMR via automatic assignment of NOESY spectra requires the adjustment of several parameters for optimal performance. Among those are the chemical shift tolerance windows (Delta), which allow for the compensation of badly matching chemical shifts in the assignment-list and peak-lists, and the maximum number of assignment possibilities allowed per peak (n(max)). Here, we test the influence of different values for Delta and n(max) on the performance of automated assignment of NOESY spectra by ARIA. Using Cesta.py (a Python script available from http://pasteur.fr/binfs/), we analyse the number of rejected peaks and the average number of assignments as a function of Delta and derive criteria for optimising Delta and n(max) prior to structure calculation. The analysis also makes it possible to detect inconsistencies in the dataset, e.g., badly matching frequencies in the NOESY peak-lists and in the provided assignment-list. We show that ARIA can deal with a large number of assignment possibilities for each peak, provided the correct option is present, and that consequently narrow tolerances should be avoided.

SHIFTX2: Chemical Shift Prediction
SHIFTX2 website
SHIFTX2 is capable of rapidly and accurately calculating diamagnetic 1H, 13C and 15N chemical shifts from protein coordinate data. Compared to its predecessor (SHIFTX) and to other existing protein chemical shift prediction programs, SHIFTX2 is substantially more accurate (up to 26% better by correlation coefficient with an RMS error that is up to 3.3× smaller) than the next best performing program. It also provides significantly more coverage (up to 10% more), is significantly faster (up to 8.5×) and capable of calculating a wider variety of backbone and side chain...

[NMR Geek blog] Chemical Shift Referencing Calculator
Chemical Shift Referencing Calculator
Below is the protocol I follow for chemical shift referencing (direct for 1H, and indirect for 13C and 15N). Actually I always have to look back and forth for referencing, so thought why not make a small script and put it on web so that the access becomes handy. !!! The referencing should be done

Chemical shift of protons?
Can someone give me the answers to the chemical shift of the protons in this compound: CH3CH2OCH2CH(CH3)COOH? Of if you can explain how to get the chemical shift it would be quite helpful as the info online does not really help me.

what is/ how do you calculate the chemical shift in an NMR?
I have read the technical definitions but I still do not understand what the chemical shift means and how you calculate it given an NMR peak. If someone could kind of dumb it down for me but still give me the important things to know/ how it helps you determine the structure of a molecule with the NMR I would appreciate it.
