Dissolution-DNP is a method to create solutions of molecules with nuclear spin polarization close to unity. The many orders of magnitude signal enhancement have enabled many new applications, in particular in vivo MR metabolic imaging. The method relies on solid state dynamic nuclear polarization at low temperature followed by a dissolution to produce the room temperature solution of highly polarized spins. This work describes the present and future of dissolution-DNP in the mind of the author. The article describes some of the current trends in the field as well as outlines some of the areas where new ideas will make an impact. Most certainly, the future will take unpredicted directions, but hopefully the thoughts presented here will stimulate new ideas that can further advance the field.

Abstract
Nucleic acids are gaining enormous importance as key molecules in almost all biological processes. Most nucleic acids do not act in isolation but are generally associated with proteins to form high-molecular-weight nucleoprotein complexes. In this perspective...

Nucleic acids are gaining enormous importance as key molecules in almost all biological processes. Most nucleic acids do not act in isolation but are generally associated with proteins to form high-molecular-weight nucleoprotein complexes. In this perspective article I focus on the structural studies of supra-molecular ribonucleoprotein (RNP) assemblies...

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...
