The non-structural gene V protein (pV, gVp) from fd virus is a non-specific single-stranded DNA binding protein. The role of gVp is to sequester the single-stranded DNA thus reducing the generation of the replicative DNA form and leading to the formation of progeny phage. In this study, we assigned the ^(13)C and ^(15)N resonances of the crystalline unbound protein by magic-angle spinning solid-state NMR. The secondary structure predicted by the NMR shifts is in excellent agreement with the...
[NMR paper] Expression, Purification, and Solution-State NMR Analysis of the Two Human Single-Stranded DNA-Binding Proteins hSSB1 (NABP2/OBFC2B) and hSSB2 (NAPB1/OBFC2A)
Expression, Purification, and Solution-State NMR Analysis of the Two Human Single-Stranded DNA-Binding Proteins hSSB1 (NABP2/OBFC2B) and hSSB2 (NAPB1/OBFC2A)
Single-stranded DNA-binding proteins (SSBs) are essential to all living organisms as protectors and guardians of the genome. Apart from the well-characterized RPA, humans have also evolved two further SSBs, termed hSSB1 and hSSB2. Over the last few years, we have used NMR spectroscopy to determine the molecular and structural details of both hSSBs and their interactions with DNA and RNA. Here we provide a detailed overview of how to...

Rapid automated determination of chemical shift anisotropy values in the carbonyl and carboxyl groups of fd-y21m bacteriophage using solid state NMR
Rapid automated determination of chemical shift anisotropy values in the carbonyl and carboxyl groups of fd-y21m bacteriophage using solid state NMR
Abstract
Determination of chemical shift anisotropy (CSA) in immobilized proteins and protein assemblies is one of several tools to determine protein dynamics on the timescales of microseconds and faster. The large CSA values of C=O groups in the rigid limit makes them in particular attractive for measurements of large amplitude motions, or their absence. In this study, we implement a 3D...

Solid state NMR chemical shift assignment and conformational analysis of a cellulose binding protein facilitated by optimized glycerol enrichment
Solid state NMR chemical shift assignment and conformational analysis of a cellulose binding protein facilitated by optimized glycerol enrichment
Abstract
Magic-angle spinning solid-state NMR has been applied to study CBM3bâ??Cbh9A (CBM3b), a cellulose binding module protein belonging to family 3b. It is a 146-residue protein having a unique nine-stranded β-sandwich fold, in which 35Â*% of the structure is in a β-sheet conformation and the remainder of the protein is composed of loops and unstructured regions. Yet, the protein can be crystalized...

Nucleotide-type chemical shift assignment of the encapsulated 40 kbp dsDNA in intact bacteriophage T7 by MAS solid-state NMR
Nucleotide-type chemical shift assignment of the encapsulated 40 kbp dsDNA in intact bacteriophage T7 by MAS solid-state NMR
Abstract
The icosahedral bacteriophage T7 is a 50 MDa double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) virus that infects Escherichia coli. Although there is substantial information on the physical and morphological properties of T7, structural information, based mostly on Raman spectroscopy and cryo-electron microscopy, is limited. Here, we apply the magic-angle spinning (MAS) solid-state NMR (SSNMR) technique to study a uniformly 13C and 15N...
