*Highlights:*? introduction of a lanthanide ion into a protein leads to paramagnetic effects and partial alignment. ? Paramagnetic Relaxation Enhancements (PREs), Residual Dipolar Couplings (RDCs), and Pseudo-Contact Shifts (PCSs), among others, can be measured. ? amplitude of paramagnetic effects depends on metal ions, protein size, and magnetic field strength. ? all paramagnetic effects and effects resulting from partial alignment are reviewed. ? practical aspects include overview of tags used and characteristics of metal ions.
[KPWU blog] [PyMOL] gradient background color
gradient background color
Starting at *PyMOL 1.4, *single color for the background is no longer the only choice. By using 3 PyMOL commands, the gradient background color can be easily shown. The only thing users have to know is that command “ray” doesn’t support this gradient color yet. So if you type “ray” in the pymol terminal , http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=kpwu.wordpress.com&blog=76132&post=619&subd=kpwu&ref=&feed=1

J Magn Reson. 1998 Sep;134(1):154-7
Authors: Bondon A, Mouro C
A new method for NMR spectra acquisition of paramagnetic proteins is described, based on the simple use of homonuclear broadband decoupling of the diamagnetic region. Several advantages are associated with this method which was applied to one-dimensional spectra, to 1D...

[U. of Ottawa NMR Facility Blog] Background Suppression in Liquids
Background Suppression in Liquids
High resolution NMR probes for liquids may contain parts near the coil consiting of the nuclei being observed. The parts give rise to background signals which can severely affect the NMR data. When observing11B, there is a background signal from boron containing parts near the coil and also the borosilicate glass in the NMR tube containing the sample.
Cory and Ritchey* introduced a very simple, clever method to suppress background signals in 1988. Their method uses a composite pulse, consisting of a 90° and two 180° pulses with appropriate phase...
