Answered: Peak shape in NMR
Hi there,
I'm quite new to NMR, but one thing I've been wondering is: are the shapes of the peaks in an NMR spectrum important? I know that the frequency information is important, and the amplitude can sometimes be important for experiments like NOESY, but does the overall shape matter? Can anymore information be deduced from this?
Thanks

Yes, the lineshape does matter. The lineshape is dependent on how the signal decays with time. For example, if you do not collect enough points, you will see truncation artifacts (sinc wiggles).
The lineshape is proportional to the R2 relaxation, which is a relaxation process that causes dephasing of coherent transverse magnetization. Increasing R2 will broaden your peaks. Probably the three main contributors to R2 are bad shimming, dipole-dipole couplings, and chemical shift anisotropy. A fourth contribution to R2 can be chemical exchange whereby a molecule can be exchanging between 2 or more chemically distinct conformations. Any increase in R2 relaxation will broaden your NMR peak lineshape.

Peak height versus peak volume
Given a standard NOESY-based protein structure determination: Does anyone have any information on the benefits of measuring peak intensity by a volume integration method rather than simply measuring the peak height.
Obviously integration is theoretically more accurate, but does it make any difference to the quality of the structures produced? especially if peak lineshapes are comparable?
I was hoping to find some study comparing structures produced by both methods.....
I'm also curious about the benefits of distance-calbrating NOEs to a curve rather than simply putting restraints...
