Homodimeric proteins pose a difficulty for NMR structure determination because the degeneracy of the chemical shifts in the two identical monomers implies an ambiguity in all assignments of distance restraints. For homodimeric proteins, residues involved in the interface between two monomers provide essential intermolecular NOEs. The structure determination of homodimeric proteins hence relies strongly on chemical shift assignments of these interface residues. Our paper discusses the influence of the extent of 1H chemical shift assignments of interface residues on the structure determinations of homodimeric proteins using the CYANA program. The results reveal that successful structure determinations of homodimeric proteins with automated NOE assignment depend on the percentage of assigned interface residues and that a high completeness of around 80–90% of the 1H chemical shift assignment in the interface is needed for reliable NMR structure determinations of homodimeric proteins for which no experimental distinction between intra- and intermolecular NOEs, e.g. by filtered NOESY experiments, is available. Our results also show that RMSD and target function values are insufficient to judge the quality of homodimeric structures determined using automated NOE assignment. Structure determinations of homodimeric proteins by NMR using conventional NOESY experiments are thus possible but more challenging than for monomeric proteins. Graphical abstract

Analysis of and chemical shifts of cysteine and cystine residues in proteins: a quant
Abstract Cysteines possess a unique property among the 20 naturally occurring amino acids: it can be present in proteins in either the reduced or oxidized form, and can regulate the activity of some proteins. Consequently, to augment our previous treatment of the other types of residues, the
13\textC\upalpha and
13\textC\upbeta chemical shifts of 837 cysteines in disulfide-bonded cystine from a set of seven non-redundant proteins, determined by X-ray crystallography and NMR spectroscopy, were computed at the DFT level of theory. Our results indicate that the errors between observed...
