Methyl groups are powerful reporters of structure, motion and function in NMR studies of supra-molecular protein assemblies. Their utility can be hindered, however, by spectral overlap, difficulties with assignment or lack of probes in biologically important regions of the molecule studied. Here we show that 13CH3-S- labeling of Cys side-chains using 13C-methyl-methanethiosulfonate (13C-MMTS) (IUPAC name: methylsulfonylsulfanylmethane) provides a convenient probe of molecular structure and dynamics. The methodology is demonstrated with an application focusing on the gating residues of the T. acidophilum proteasome, where it is shown that the 13CH3-S- label reports faithfully on the conformational heterogeneity and dynamics in this region of the complex. A second and related application involves labeling with 13C-MMTS at the N-termini of the subunits comprising the E. coli ClpP protease that reveals multiple conformations of gating residues in this complex as well. These N-terminal residues adopt a single conformation upon gate opening.

Methyl groups as probes of supra-molecular structure, dynamics and function
Abstract The development of new protein labeling strategies, along with optimized experiments that exploit the label, have significantly impacted on the types of biochemical problems that can now be addressed by solution NMR spectroscopy. Here we describe how methyl labeling of key residues in a highly deuterated protein background has facilitated studies of the structure, dynamics and interactions of supra-molecular particles. The methyl-labeling approach is briefly reviewed, followed by a summary of...

Optimal methyl labeling for studies of supra-molecular systems
Abstract Selective methyl labeling combined with HMQC spectroscopy that exploits a TROSY effect in 13CH3 spin systems has significantly extended the utility of solution NMR spectroscopy in studies of high molecular weight particles. Herein we compare the utility of 13CH3- versus 13CHD2-labeling of Ile, Leu, Val probes in supra-molecular systems through quantification of relative signal-to-noise ratios in optimized spectra of highly deuterated, 13CH3- and 13CHD2-labeled samples of the half proteasome (α7α7, 360 kDa). It is shown that the sensitivity of spectra recorded on Ile, Leu, Val...
