Abstract
Chemical Exchange Saturation Transfer (CEST) NMR experiments have emerged as a powerful tool for characterizing dynamics in proteins. We show here that the CEST approach can be extended to systems with symmetrical exchange, where the NMR signals of all exchanging species are severely broadened. To achieve this, multi-quantum CEST (MQ-CEST) is introduced, where the CEST pulse is applied to a longitudinal multi-spin order density element and the CEST profiles encoded onto non-broadened nuclei. The MQ-CEST approach is demonstrated on the restricted rotation of guanidinium groups in arginine residues within proteins. These groups and their dynamics are essential for many enzymes and for non-covalent interactions through the formation of hydrogen bonds, salt-bridges and ?-stacking interactions and their rate of rotation is highly indicative of the extent of interactions formed. The MQ-CEST method is successfully applied to guanidinium groups in the 19 kDa L99A mutant of T4 Lysozyme.

3-O-Methyl- d -glucose mutarotation and proton exchange rates assessed by 13 C, 1 H NMR and by chemical exchange saturation transfer and spin lock measurements
Abstract
3-O-Methyl-d-glucose (3OMG) was recently suggested as an agent to image tumors using chemical exchange saturation transfer (CEST) MRI. To characterize the properties of 3OMG in solution, the anomeric equilibrium and the mutarotation rates of 3OMG were studied by 1H and 13C NMR. This information is essential in designing the in vivo CEST experiments. At room temperature, the ratio...

Abstract
Arginine side-chains are often key for enzyme catalysis, protein-ligand and protein-protein interactions. The importance of arginine stems from the ability of the terminal guanidinium group to form many key interactions,...

A 13 C-detected 15 N double-quantum NMR experiment to probe arginine side-chain guanidinium 15 N η chemical shifts
Abstract
Arginine side-chains are often key for enzyme catalysis, proteinâ??ligand and proteinâ??protein interactions. The importance of arginine stems from the ability of the terminal guanidinium group to form many key interactions, such as hydrogen bonds and salt bridges, as well as its perpetual positive charge. We present here an arginine 13Cζ-detected NMR experiment in which a double-quantum coherence involving the two 15Nη nuclei...

Probing conformational dynamics in biomolecules via chemical exchange saturation transfer: a primer
Abstract
Although Chemical Exchange Saturation Transfer (CEST) type NMR experiments have been used to study chemical exchange processes in molecules since the early 1960s, there has been renewed interest in the past several years in using this approach to study biomolecular conformational dynamics. The methodology is particularly powerful for the study of sparsely populated, transiently formed conformers that are recalcitrant to investigation using...

[U. of Ottawa NMR Facility Blog] CEST - Chemical Exchange Saturation Transfer
CEST - Chemical Exchange Saturation Transfer
Chemical Exchange Saturation Transfer (CEST) is a technique where one resonance, in slow exchange with a second resonance, is saturated with a selective low power pulse followed by a hard non-selective 90° pulse. The intensity of the second resonance is then diminished due to the transfer of saturation from the first resonance as the result of chemical exchange. The figure below demonstrates this for a 25 mM solution of salicylic acid in H2O/D2O buffered at pH 7. ...
