A highly sensitive new 1H-detected 3D solid-state NMR method is described for characterizing 1H-1H spin exchange in nanocrystalline samples of 15N- and 2H-enriched protein. Long-range contacts are observed in human ubiquitin. The method is also used to show that numerous NOEs between backbone amides and crystal water protons can be observed.

Optimum levels of exchangeable protons in perdeuterated proteins for proton detection in MAS solid-state NMR spectroscopy
Optimum levels of exchangeable protons in perdeuterated proteins for proton detection in MAS solid-state NMR spectroscopy
Abstract We present a systematic study of the effect of the level of exchangeable protons on the observed amide proton linewidth obtained in perdeuterated proteins. Decreasing the amount of D2O employed in the crystallization buffer from 90 to 0%, we observe a fourfold increase in linewidth for both 1H and 15N resonances. At the same time, we find a gradual increase in the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) for 1Hâ??15N correlations in dipolar coupling based experiments for...

The response of inverse triple resonance cold and conventional probes to ionic strength has been compared under a variety of conditions relevant to protein NMR. Increasing the salt concentration degrades probe performance in terms of sensitivity, and the effect is more severe for cold probes and...
