When planning a fluorine labeling strategy for 19F solid state NMR (ssNMR) studies of the structure and/or mobility of fluorine labeled compounds in situ in an oriented biological system, it is important to characterize the NMR properties of the label. This manuscript focuses on the characterization of a selection of aromatic fluorine compounds in dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine bilayers using 19F ssNMR from the standpoint of determiningÂ*the optimum arrangement of fluorine nuclei on a pendant aromatic ring before incorporation into more complex biological systems.

Segmental isotope labelling and solid-state NMR of a 12â??Ã?â??59Â*kDa motor protein: identification of structural variability
Abstract
Segmental isotope labelling enables the NMR study of an individual domain within a multidomain protein, but still in the context of the entire full-length protein. Compared to the fully labelled protein, spectral overlap can be greatly reduced. We here describe segmental labelling of the (double-) hexameric DnaB helicase from Helicobacter pylori using a ligation approach. Solid-state spectra demonstrate that the...

Sparse 13 C labelling for solid-state NMR studies of P. pastoris expressed eukaryotic seven-transmembrane proteins
Abstract
We demonstrate a novel sparse 13C labelling approach for methylotrophic yeast P. pastoris expression system, towards solid-state NMR studies of eukaryotic membrane proteins. The labelling scheme was achieved by co-utilizing natural abundance methanol and specifically 13C labelled glycerol as carbon sources in the expression medium. This strategy improves the spectral resolution by 1.5 fold, displays site-specific labelling...

Sample orientation relative to the static magnetic field of an NMR spectrometer allows study of membrane proteins in the lipid bilayer setting. The straightforward preparation and handling of extremely thin mica substrates with consistent surface properties has prompted us to examine oriented phospholipid...
