Solid-state NMR experiments have recently provided a number of biochemical insights: motionally averaged 2H lineshapes have shown that the motion of a backbone loop protecting a protein binding site is not ligand gated; isotropic 13C chemical shifts of freeze-quenched enzyme-ligand intermediates have revealed mechanistic details of reaction pathways; multiple heteronuclear distance determinations have characterized the binding-site geometry of a 46 kDa noncrystalline enzyme complex; and homonuclear recoupling experiments have established that insoluble amyloid fibrils form a pleated beta sheet.
High dimensional and high resolution pulse sequences for backbone resonance assignment of intrinsically disordered proteins
High dimensional and high resolution pulse sequences for backbone resonance assignment of intrinsically disordered proteins
Abstract Four novel 5D (HACA(N)CONH, HNCOCACB, (HACA)CON(CA)CONH, (H)NCO(NCA)CONH), and one 6D ((H)NCO(N)CACONH) NMR pulse sequences are proposed. The new experiments employ non-uniform sampling that enables achieving high resolution in indirectly detected dimensions. The experiments facilitate resonance assignment of intrinsically disordered proteins. The novel pulse sequences were successfully tested using δ subunit (20 kDa) of Bacillus subtilis RNA polymerase...

High resolution NMR spectroscopy of nanocrystalline proteins at ultra-high magnetic field
High resolution NMR spectroscopy of nanocrystalline proteins at ultra-high magnetic field
Abstract Magic-angle spinning (MAS) solid-state NMR (SSNMR) spectroscopy of uniformly-13C,15N labeled protein samples provides insight into atomic-resolution chemistry and structure. Data collection efficiency has advanced remarkably in the last decade; however, the study of larger proteins is still challenged by relatively low resolution in comparison to solution NMR. In this study, we present a systematic analysis of SSNMR protein spectra acquired at 11.7, 17.6 and 21.1 Tesla (1H frequencies of...
