A general approach for assigning the resonances of uniformly 15N- and 13C-labeled proteins in their unfolded state is presented. The assignment approach takes advantage of the spectral dispersion of the amide nitrogen chemical shifts in denatured proteins by correlating side chain and backbone carbon and proton frequencies with the amide resonances of the same and adjacent residues. The 1H resonances of the individual amino acid spin systems are correlated with their intraresidue amide in a 3D 15N-edited 1H,1H-TOCSY-HSQC experiment, which allows the spin systems to be assigned to amino acid type. The spin systems are then linked to the adjacent i-1 spin system using the 3D H(C)(CO)NH-TOCSY experiment. Complete 13C assignments are obtained from the 3D (H)C(CO)NH-TOCSY experiment. Unlike other methods for assigning denatured proteins, this approach does not require previous knowledge of the native state assignments or specific interconversion rates between the native and denatured forms. The strategy is demonstrated by assigning the 1H, 13C, and 15N resonances of the FK506 binding protein denatured in 6.3 M urea.

Uncovering symmetry-breaking vector and reliability order for assigning secondary structures of proteins from atomic NMR chemical shifts in amino acids
Abstract Unravelling the complex correlation between chemical shifts of 13 C α, 13 C β, 13 C�, 1 H α, 15 N, 1 H N atoms in amino acids of proteins from NMR experiment and local structural environments of amino acids facilitates the assignment of secondary structures of proteins. This is an important impetus for both determining the three-dimensional structure and understanding the biological function of proteins. The previous...

Engineering 3â?? binding sites in proteins: a widely applicable method for tagging proteins with lanthanide ions
Abstract Paramagnetic relaxation enhancements from unpaired electrons observed in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra present powerful long-range distance restraints. The most frequently used paramagnetic tags, however, are tethered to the protein via disulfide bonds, requiring proteins with single cysteine residues for covalent attachment. Here we present a straightforward strategy to tag proteins site-specifically with paramagnetic lanthanides without a tether and...
