Determination of protein structure and dynamics is key to understand the mechanism of protein action. Perdeuterated proteins have been used to obtain high resolution/sensitivty NMR experiments via proton-detection. These methods utilizes 1H, 13C and 15N nuclei for chemical shift dispersion or relaxation probes, despite the existing abundant deuterons. However, a high-sensitivity NMR method to utilize deuterons and e.g. determine site-specific deuterium quadrupolar pattern information has been lacking due to technical difficulties associated with deuteriumâ??s large quadrupolar couplings. Here, we present a novel deuterium-excited and proton-detected three-dimensional 2Hâ??13Câ??1H MAS NMR experiment to utilize deuterons and to obtain site-specific methyl 2H quadrupolar patterns on detuterated proteins for the first time. A high-resolution fingerprint 1Hâ??15N HSQC-spectrum is correlated with the anisotropic deuterium quadrupolar tensor in the third dimension. Results from a model perdeuterated protein has been shown.

Off-resonance 13Câ??2H REDOR NMR for site-resolved studies of molecular motion
Abstract
We introduce a 13Câ??2H Rotational Echo DOuble Resonance (REDOR) technique that uses the difference between on-resonance and off-resonance 2H irradiation to detect dynamic segments in deuterated molecules. By selectively inverting specific regions of the 2H magic-angle spinning (MAS) sideband manifold to recouple some of the deuterons to nearby carbons, we distinguish dynamic and rigid residues in 1D and 2D 13C spectra. We demonstrate this approach on deuterated...

Dynamic domains of amyloid fibrils can be site-specifically assigned with proton detected 3D NMR spectroscopy
Dynamic domains of amyloid fibrils can be site-specifically assigned with proton detected 3D NMR spectroscopy
Abstract
Several amyloid fibrils have cores framed by highly dynamic, intrinsically disordered, domains that can play important roles for function and toxicity. To study these domains in detail using solid-state NMR spectroscopy, site-specific resonance assignments are required. Although the rapid dynamics of these domains lead to considerable averaging of orientation-dependent NMR interactions and thereby line-narrowing, the proton...

Automated sequence- and stereo-specific assignment of methyl-labeled proteins by paramagnetic relaxation and methylâ??methyl nuclear overhauser enhancement spectroscopy
Abstract Methyl-transverse relaxation optimized spectroscopy is rapidly becoming the preferred NMR technique for probing structure and dynamics of very large proteins up to ~1 MDa in molecular size. Data interpretation, however, necessitates assignment of methyl groups which still presents a very challenging and time-consuming process. Here we demonstrate that, in combination with a known 3D structure, paramagnetic...
