Topology and immersion depth of an integral membrane protein by paramagnetic rates from dissolved oxygen
Topology and immersion depth of an integral membrane protein by paramagnetic rates from dissolved oxygen
Abstract In studies of membrane proteins, knowledge of protein topology can provide useful insight into both structure and function. In this work, we present a solution NMR method for the measurement the tilt angle and average immersion depth of alpha helices in membrane proteins, from analysis of the paramagnetic relaxation rate enhancements arising from dissolved oxygen. No modification to the micelle or protein is necessary, and the topology of both transmembrane and...

[Question from NMRWiki Q&A forum] paramagnetic oxygen in solution NMR
paramagnetic oxygen in solution NMR
A student is running a kinetics experiment in a J-Young tube under 5-10 atm of oxygen, much like in this journal article:http://pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.1021/ja9061932
Student is seeing reduction in signal from his compound (slightly polar) and his internal standard (non-polar). Obviously paramagnetic oxygen?
The part I can't figure out: student is NOT seeing a reduction in his solvent peak. Solvent is benzene or toluene. I am assuming he is using at least some deuterated solvent.
I have found a lot of literature on the interaction of paramagnetic...

C&EN News of the Week: Elevating Oxygen
Two recent NMR papers by Gang Wu (Queen's) and coworkers are highlighted by Chemical & Engineering News in their first issue of 2011.
http://pubs.acs.org/cen/news/89/i01/8901notw4.html
Both papers deal with 17O NMR in large protein complexes, in solution and in solid state. New research approaches proposed by Gang Wu and his team have a potential to significantly advance the field of protein NMR spectroscopy.
