High-resolution 13C-NMR experiments have been performed on bacteriorhodopsin biosynthetically labeled with carbonyl-13C amino acids and solubilized in the detergent dodecylmaltoside. 13C-NMR spectra showing good resolution were obtained in the case of labeled amino acids moderately represented in the BR sequence. For BR labeled with [13C]carbonyl methionine, several sequence-specific assignment could be performed by co-labeling with 15N amino acids or proteolysis. These assignments were used to obtain structural data on BR. Water-exposure of methionine side chains in the protein was assessed by studying, using NMR, their oxidation by hydrogen peroxide. Local secondary structure at the level of methionine residues was monitored through the effect of 1H-2H exchange on NMR spectra. It was concluded that Met32, Met68 and Met163 are peripheral while all 6 other methionine residues are deeply embedded within hydrophobic alpha-helices. These results confirm the current model of the BR folding and secondary structure.

Fast methionine-based solution structure determination of calcium-calmodulin complexes
Abstract Here we present a novel NMR method for the structure determination of calcium-calmodulin (Ca2+-CaM)-peptide complexes from a limited set of experimental restraints. A comparison of solved CaM-peptide structures reveals invariability in CaMâ??s backbone conformation and a structural plasticity in CaMâ??s domain orientation enabled by a flexible linker. Knowing this, the collection and analysis of an extensive set of NOESY spectra is redundant. Although RDCs can define CaM domain orientation in...

Conformational dependence of 13C shielding and coupling constants for methionine
Abstract Methionine residues fulfill a broad range of roles in protein function related to conformational plasticity, ligand binding, and sensing/mediating the effects of oxidative stress. A high degree of internal mobility, intrinsic detection sensitivity of the methyl group, and low copy number have made methionine labeling a popular approach for NMR investigation of selectively labeled protein macromolecules. However, selective labeling approaches are subject to more limited information content. In order to optimize the information available from such studies, we have performed DFT...
