Abstract Methyl 13CHD2 isotopomers of all methyl-containing amino-acids can be observed in residually protonated samples of large proteins obtained from [U-13C,1H]-glucose/D2O-based bacterial media, with sensitivity sufficient for a number of NMR applications. Selective detection of some subsets of methyl groups (Alaβ, Thrγ2) is possible using simple â??out-and-backâ?? NMR methodology. Such selective methyl-detected â??out-and-backâ?? NMR experiments allow complete assignments of threonine γ2 methyls in residually protonated, [U-13C,1H]-glucose/D2O-derived samples of an 82-kDa enzyme Malate Synthase G. [U-13C,1H]-glucose/D2O-derived protein samples are relatively inexpensive and are usually available at very early stages of any NMR study of high-molecular-weight systems.

Estimating side-chain order in methyl-protonated, perdeuterated proteins via multiple-quantum relaxation violated coherence transfer NMR spectroscopy
Estimating side-chain order in methyl-protonated, perdeuterated proteins via multiple-quantum relaxation violated coherence transfer NMR spectroscopy
Abstract Relaxation violated coherence transfer NMR spectroscopy (Tugarinov et al. in J Am Chem Soc 129:1743â??1750, 2007) is an established experimental tool for quantitative estimation of the amplitudes of side-chain motions in methyl-protonated, highly deuterated proteins. Relaxation violated coherence transfer experiments monitor the build-up of methyl proton multiple-quantum coherences that can be created in magnetically equivalent...

Multiplet-filtered and gradient-selected zero-quantum TROSY experiments for 13C1H3 methyl groups in proteins
Multiplet-filtered and gradient-selected zero-quantum TROSY experiments for 13C1H3 methyl groups in proteins
Abstract Multiplet-filtered and gradient-selected heteronuclear zero-quantum coherence (gsHZQC) TROSY experiments are described for measuring 1Hâ??13C correlations for 13CH3 methyl groups in proteins. These experiments provide improved suppression of undesirable, broad outer components of the heteronuclear zero-quantum multiplet in medium-sized proteins, or in flexible sites of larger proteins, compared to previously described HZQC sequences (Tugarinov et al. in J Am Chem Soc...

A simple biosynthetic method for stereospecific resonance assignment of prochiral methyl groups in proteins
A simple biosynthetic method for stereospecific resonance assignment of prochiral methyl groups in proteins
Abstract A new method for stereospecific assignment of prochiral methyl groups in proteins is presented in which protein samples are produced using U-glucose and subsaturating amounts of 2-methyl-acetolactate. The resulting non-uniform labeling pattern allows proR and proS methyl groups to be easily distinguished by their different phases in a constant-time two-dimensional 1H-13C correlation spectra. Protein samples are conveniently prepared using the same media composition as the...

Studying protein components of large intracellular complexes by in-cell NMR has so far been impossible because the backbone resonances are unobservable due to their slow tumbling rates. We describe a methodology that overcomes...

Abstract:
MAS solid-state NMR experiments applied to biological solids are still hampered by low sensitivity and resolution. In this work, we employ a deuteration scheme in which individual methyl groups are selectively protonated. This labeling scheme...
