A 2D 13C-CEST experiment for studying slowly exchanging protein systems using methyl probes: an application to protein folding
Abstract A 2D 13C Chemical Exchange Saturation Transfer (CEST) experiment is presented for studying slowly exchanging protein systems using methyl groups as probes. The utility of the method is first established through studies of protein L, a small protein, for which chemical exchange on the millisecond time-scale is not observed. Subsequently the approach is applied to a folding exchange reaction of a G48M mutant Fyn SH3 domain, for which only cross-peaks...

The folding of CheY mutant F14N/V83T was studied at 75 residues by NMR. Fluorescence, NMR, and sedimentation equilibrium studies at different urea and protein concentrations reveal that the urea-induced unfolding of this CheY mutant includes an on-pathway molten globule-like intermediate that can...

The denaturant-induced (un)folding of apoflavodoxin from Azotobacter vinelandii has been followed at the residue level by NMR spectroscopy. NH groups of 21 residues of the protein could be followed in a series of 1H-15N heteronuclear single-quantum coherence spectra recorded at increasing concentrations of...
