Enhanced-sensitivity NMR could reveal new clues to how proteins fold Phys.Org
Until now, it has been difficult to fully characterize the different structures that proteins can take on in their natural environments. However, using a new technique known as sensitivity-enhanced nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), MIT researchers have ...

Authors: Hong M, Yamaguchi S
A method for enhancing the sensitivity of 15N spectra of nonspinning solids through 1H indirect detection is introduced. By sampling the 1H signals in the windows of a pulsed spin-lock sequence, high-sensitivity 1H spectra can be obtained in two-dimensional (2D) spectra whose indirect dimension yields the 15N chemical...
