Abstract
We present an efficient method for the reduction of spectral complexity in the solid-state NMR spectra of insoluble protein assemblies, without loss of signal intensity. The approach is based on segmental isotope labeling by using the split intein DnaE from Nostoc punctiforme. We show that the segmentally (13) C,(15) N-labeled prion domain of HET-s exhibits significantly reduced spectral overlap while retaining the wild-type structure and spectral quality. A large number of unambiguous distance restraints were thus collected from a single two-dimensional (13) C,(13) C cross-correlation spectrum. The observed resonances could be unambiguously identified as intramolecular without the need for preparing a dilute, less sensitive sample.

Segmental isotope labeling of proteins for NMR structural study using a protein S tag for higher expression and solubility
Segmental isotope labeling of proteins for NMR structural study using a protein S tag for higher expression and solubility
Abstract A common obstacle to NMR studies of proteins is sample preparation. In many cases, proteins targeted for NMR studies are poorly expressed and/or expressed in insoluble forms. Here, we describe a novel approach to overcome these problems. In the protein S tag-intein (PSTI) technology, two tandem 92-residue N-terminal domains of protein S (PrS2) from Myxococcus xanthus is fused at the N-terminal end of a protein to enhance its expression and solubility. Using...

A segmental labeling strategy for unambiguous determination of domainâ??domain interactions of large multi-domain proteins
A segmental labeling strategy for unambiguous determination of domainâ??domain interactions of large multi-domain proteins
Abstract NMR structural determination of large multi-domain proteins is a challenging task due to significant spectral overlap with a particular difficulty in unambiguous identification of domainâ??domain interactions. Segmental labeling is a NMR strategy that allows for isotopically labeling one domain and leaves the other domain unlabeled. This significantly simplifies spectral overlaps and allows for quick identification of domainâ??domain interaction. Here, a...

NMR order parameters calculated in an expanding reference frame: identifying sites of short- and long-range motion
NMR order parameters calculated in an expanding reference frame: identifying sites of short- and long-range motion
Abstract NMR order parameters are calculated from molecular dynamics computer simulations of ubiquitin and the apo (Ca2+-free) state of calbindin D9k. Calculations are performed in an expanding reference frame so as to discriminate between the effects of short- and long-range motions. This approach reveals that the dominant contributions to the order parameters are short-range. Longer-range contributions are limited to specific sites, many of which have been recognized in...
