Abstract We describe here, adaptation of the HNN pulse sequence for multiple nuclei detection using two independent receivers by utilizing the detectable 13Cα transverse magnetization which was otherwise dephased out in the conventional HNN experiment. It enables acquisition of 2D 13Cαâ??15N sequential correlations along with the standard 3D 15Nâ??15Nâ??1H correlations, which provides directionality to sequential walk in HNN, on one hand, and enhances the speed of backbone assignment, on the other. We foresee that the implementation of dual direct detection opens up new avenues for a wide variety of modifications that would further enhance the value and applications of the experiment, and enable derivation of hitherto impossible information.

Simultaneous measurement of 1Hâ??15N and Methyl 1Hmâ??13Cm residual dipolar couplings in large proteins
Simultaneous measurement of 1Hâ??15N and Methyl 1Hmâ??13Cm residual dipolar couplings in large proteins
Abstract A two-dimensional TROSY-based SIM-13Cmâ??1Hm/1Hâ??15N NMR experiment for simultaneous measurements of methyl 1 D CH and backbone amide 1 D NH residual dipolar couplings (RDC) in {U-; Ileδ1-; Leu,Val-}-labeled samples of large proteins is described. Significant variation in the alignment tensor of the 82-kDa enzyme Malate synthase G is observed as a function of only slight changes in experimental conditions. The SIM-13Cmâ??1Hm/1Hâ??15N data sets provide convenient means...

Side-chain to backbone correlations from solid-state NMR of perdeuterated proteins through combined excitation and long-range magnetization transfers
Side-chain to backbone correlations from solid-state NMR of perdeuterated proteins through combined excitation and long-range magnetization transfers
Abstract Proteins with excessive deuteration give access to proton detected solid-state NMR spectra of extraordinary resolution and sensitivity. The high spectral quality achieved after partial proton back-exchange has been shown to start a new era for backbone assignment, protein structure elucidation, characterization of protein dynamics, and access to protein parts undergoing motion. The large absence of protons at non-exchangeable...

Improved accuracy in measuring one-bond and two-bond 15N,13Cα coupling constants in proteins by double-inphase/antiphase (DIPAP) spectroscopy
Improved accuracy in measuring one-bond and two-bond 15N,13Cα coupling constants in proteins by double-inphase/antiphase (DIPAP) spectroscopy
Abstract An extension to HN(CO-α/β-N,Cα-J)-TROSY (Permi and Annila in J Biomol NMR 16:221â??227, 2000) is proposed that permits the simultaneous determination of the four coupling constants 1 J Nâ?²(i)Cα(i), 2 J HN(i)Cα(i), 2 J Cα(iâ??1)Nâ?²(i), and 3 J Cα(iâ??1)HN(i) in 15N,13C-labeled proteins. Contrasting the original scheme, in which two separate subspectra exhibit the 2 J CαNâ?² coupling as inphase and antiphase splitting (IPAP), we...

We show that the weak signal that remains after (13)C-detected experiments (the (13)C "afterglow") can still be measured with high sensitivity by proton detection. This is illustrated by the incorporation of two experiments, 2D (HA)CACO and 3D (HA)CA(CO)NNH, into a single pulse sequence that makes use of two receivers...

Sequential nearest-neighbor effects on computed 13Cα chemical shifts
Abstract To evaluate sequential nearest-neighbor effects on quantum-chemical calculations of 13Cα chemical shifts, we selected the structure of the nucleic acid binding (NAB) protein from the SARS coronavirus determined by NMR in solution (PDB id 2K87). NAB is a 116-residue α/β protein, which contains 9 prolines and has 50% of its residues located in loops and turns. Overall, the results presented here show that sizeable nearest-neighbor effects are seen only for residues preceding proline, where Pro introduces an overestimation, on average, of 1.73 ppm in the computed 13Cα chemical...

Journal of Biomolecular NMR; 2007; 39(2) pp 97 - 105
Abstract:
Simultaneous recording of different NMR parameters is an efficient way to reduce the overall experimental time and speed up structural studies of biological macromolecules. This can especially be beneficial in the case of fast NMR-based drug screening applications or for collecting NOE restraints, where prohibitively long data collection...
