A 263 GHz gyrotron dedicated to Dynamic Nuclear Polarization (DNP) enhanced Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy has been designed by EPFL and manufactured by Thales. With this device, we have demonstrated an output power up to 160 W in continuous wave. Design and main experimental results are discussed in this paper.

αH(i,i+1) NOEs in helical peptide, can this be present continuously...
Hi,
I have observed some interesting NOEs for my peptide (5 kDa) in my 2D NOESY spectrum recorded at 900 MHz. I see NOEs that forms an α-helical pattern between 12-24 residues and N&C-terminus of my peptide is unstructured and does not have any secondary structure. The interesting part is, apart from seeing helical NOE patterns, such as αN(i,i+3)and αβ(i,i+3) for the residues between 12 & 24, I see in the alpha proton chemical shift regions of my 2D NOESY spectrum, a continuous αH(i,i+1) NOEs for the residues where I have helical secondary structural region (12-24 aa). That is, I see NOE...

Tunable paramagnetic relaxation enhancements by [Gd(DPA)3]3â?? for protein structure
Abstract Paramagnetic relaxation enhancements (PRE) present a powerful source of structural information in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) studies of proteins and proteinâ??ligand complexes. In contrast to conventional PRE reagents that are covalently attached to the protein, the complex between gadolinium and three dipicolinic acid (DPA) molecules, 3â??, can bind to proteins in a non-covalent yet site-specific manner. This offers straightforward access to PREs that can be scaled by using different ratios of 3â?? to protein, allowing quantitative distance measurements for nuclear spins...
