(15)N-(1)H residual dipolar couplings (RDC) have been used as additional restraints to refine the solution structure of the ribotoxin alpha-sarcin. The RDC values were obtained by partial alignment of alpha-sarcin in the binary mixture of n-dodecyl hexa(ethylene glycol)/hexanol. A total of 131 RDCs were measured and 106 were introduced in the final steps of the calculation protocol following the main calculation based on nuclear Overhauser enhancements and torsion angle restraints. A homogeneous family of 81 conformers was obtained. The resulting average pairwise root-mean-square deviation corresponding to the superposition of the 20 best structures is 0.69+/-0.12 A for the backbone and 1.29+/-0.14 A for all heavy atoms. The new structural features derived from the refined structure, compared with the non-refined structure of alpha-sarcin, consist of new hydrogen bonds and a better definition of the backbone conformation. In particular, the loop segment spanning Gly 60 to Lys 70 shows a single conformation, corresponding to the most populated family of conformers observed in the unrefined structure. The information derived from the analysis of the refined structure and the comparison with the homologous protein restrictocin could help in establishing further structure-function relationships concerning alpha-sarcin which can be reasonably extrapolated to other members of the ribotoxin family.

Residual dipolar couplings: are multiple independent alignments always possible? Residual dipolar couplings: are multiple independent alignments always possible? Abstract RDCs for the 14 kDa protein hen egg-white lysozyme (HEWL) have been measured in eight different alignment media. The elongated shape and strongly positively charged surface of HEWL appear to limit the protein to four main alignment orientations. Furthermore, low levels of alignment and the proteinâ??s interaction with some alignment media increases the experimental error. Together with heterogeneity across the alignment media arising from constraints on temperature, pH and ionic strength for some...	nmrlearner	Journal club	0	12-26-2010 04:43 AM

Facile measurement of 1Hâ??15N residual dipolar couplings in larger perdeuterated pro Abstract We present a simple method, ARTSY, for extracting 1JNH couplings and 1Hâ??15N RDCs from an interleaved set of two-dimensional 1Hâ??15N TROSY-HSQC spectra, based on the principle of quantitative J correlation. The primary advantage of the ARTSY method over other methods is the ability to measure couplings without scaling peak positions or altering the narrow line widths characteristic of TROSY spectra. Accuracy of the method is demonstrated for the model system GB3. Application to the catalytic core domain of HIV integrase, a 36 kDa homodimer with unfavorable spectral...	nmrlearner	Journal club	0	08-14-2010 04:19 AM
