Parkinson's disease is amongst the most frequent and most devastating neurodegenerative diseases. It is tightly associated with the assembly of proteins into high-molecular weight protein species, which propagate between neurons in the central nervous system. The principal protein involved in this process is ?-synuclein which is a structural component of the Lewy bodies observed in diseased brain. We here present the solid-state NMR sequential assignments of a new fibrillar form of this protein, the first one with a well-ordered and rigid N-terminal part.

Multidimensional oriented solid-state NMR experiments enable the sequential assignment of uniformly 15N labeled integral membrane proteins in magnetically aligned lipid bilayers
Abstract Oriented solid-state NMR is the most direct methodology to obtain the orientation of membrane proteins with respect to the lipid bilayer. The method consists of measuring 1H-15N dipolar couplings (DC) and 15N anisotropic chemical shifts (CSA) for membrane proteins that are uniformly aligned with respect to the membrane bilayer. A significant advantage of this approach is that tilt and azimuthal...

Extensive de novo solid-state NMR assignments of the 33 kDa C-terminal domain of the Ure2 prion
Extensive de novo solid-state NMR assignments of the 33 kDa C-terminal domain of the Ure2 prion
Abstract We present the de novo resonance assignments for the crystalline 33 kDa C-terminal domain of the Ure2 prion using an optimized set of five 3D solid-state NMR spectra. We obtained, using a single uniformly 13C, 15N labeled protein sample, sequential chemical-shift information for 74% of the N, Cα, Cβ triples, and for 80% of further side-chain resonances for these spin systems. We describe the procedures and protocols devised, and discuss possibilities and limitations of the...

Triple-resonance solid-state NMR spectroscopy is demonstrated to sequentially assign the 13C' and 15N amide backbone resonances of adjacent residues in an oriented protein sample. The observed 13C' chemical shift frequency provides an orientational constraint complementary to those measured from the 1H and 15N amide...
