A streamlined one-day protocol is described to produce isotopically methyl-labeled protein with high levels of deuterium for NMR studies. Using this protocol, the D2O and 2H-glucose content of the media and protonation level of ILV labeling precursors (ketobutyrate and ketovalerate) were varied. The relaxation rate of the multiple-quantum (MQ) state that is present during the HMQC-TROSY pulse sequence was measured for different labeling schemes and this rate was used to predict upper limits of molecular weights for various labeling schemes. The use of deuterated solvents (D2O) or deuterated glucose is not required to obtain 1Hâ??13C correlated NMR spectra of a 50Â*kDa homodimeric protein that are suitable for assignment by mutagenesis. High quality spectra of 100â??150Â*kDa proteins, suitable for most applications, can be obtained without the use of deuterated glucose. The proton on the β-position of ketovalerate appears to undergo partial exchange with deuterium under the growth conditions used in this study.
[NMR paper] A Novel NMR-Based Protocol to Screen Ultralow Molecular Weight Fragments
A Novel NMR-Based Protocol to Screen Ultralow Molecular Weight Fragments
Fragment-based lead discovery has emerged as one of the most efficient screening strategies for finding hit molecules in drug discovery. Recently, a novel strategy based on a class of fragments characterized by an ultralow molecular weight (ULMW) has been proposed. These fragments bind to the target with a very low affinity, requiring reliable biophysical methods for detection. The most notable application of ULMW used a set of 81 fragments, named MiniFrags, and screened them by X-ray...

Selective editing of Val and Leu methyl groups in high molecular weight protein NMR
Abstract The development of methyl-TROSY approaches and specific 13Câ??1H labeling of Ile, Leu and Val methyl groups in highly deuterated proteins has made it possible to study high molecular weight proteins, either alone or in complexes, using solution nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. Here we present 2-dimensional (2D) and 3-dimensional (3D) NMR experiments designed to achieve complete separation of the methyl resonances of Val and Leu, labeled using the same precursor, α-ketoisovalerate...
