Composite Alignment Media for the Measurement of Independent Sets of NMR Residual Dipolar Couplings
Ke Ruan and Joel R. Tolman
J. Am. Chem. Soc.; 2005; 127(43) pp 15032 - 15033;

Abstract:

The measurement of independent sets of NMR residual dipolar couplings (RDCs) in multiple alignment media can provide a detailed view of biomolecular structure and dynamics, yet remains experimentally challenging. It is demonstrated here that independent sets of RDCs can be measured for ubiquitin using just a single alignment medium composed of aligned bacteriophage Pf1 particles embedded in a strained polyacrylamide gel matrix. Using this composite medium, molecular alignment can be modulated by varying the angle between the directors of ordering for the Pf1 and strained gel matrix, or by varying the ionic strength or concentration of the Pf1 particles. This approach offers significant advantages in that greater experimental control can be exercised over the acquisition of multi-alignment RDC data while a homogeneous chemical environment is maintained across all of the measured RDC data.

Simultaneous measurement of 1Hâ??15N and Methyl 1Hmâ??13Cm residual dipolar couplings in large proteins Simultaneous measurement of 1Hâ??15N and Methyl 1Hmâ??13Cm residual dipolar couplings in large proteins Abstract A two-dimensional TROSY-based SIM-13Cmâ??1Hm/1Hâ??15N NMR experiment for simultaneous measurements of methyl 1 D CH and backbone amide 1 D NH residual dipolar couplings (RDC) in {U-; IleÎ´1-; Leu,Val-}-labeled samples of large proteins is described. Significant variation in the alignment tensor of the 82-kDa enzyme Malate synthase G is observed as a function of only slight changes in experimental conditions.

Measurement of 1Hâ??15N and 1Hâ??13C residual dipolar couplings in nucleic acids from TROSY intensities Measurement of 1Hâ??15N and 1Hâ??13C residual dipolar couplings in nucleic acids from TROSY intensities Abstract Analogous to the recently introduced ARTSY method for measurement of one-bond 1Hâ??15N residual dipolar couplings (RDCs) in large perdeuterated proteins, we introduce methods for measurement of base 13Câ??1H and 15Nâ??1H RDCs in protonated nucleic acids. Measurements are based on quantitative analysis of intensities in 1Hâ??15N and 13Câ??1H TROSY-HSQC spectra, and are illustrated for a 71-nucleotide adenine riboswitch. Results compare favorably with those of conventional...	nmrlearner	Journal club	0	09-30-2011 08:01 PM
Rapid measurement of residual dipolar couplings for fast fold elucidation of proteins Rapid measurement of residual dipolar couplings for fast fold elucidation of proteins Abstract It has been demonstrated that protein folds can be determined using appropriate computational protocols with NMR chemical shifts as the sole source of experimental restraints. While such approaches are very promising they still suffer from low convergence resulting in long computation times to achieve accurate results. Here we present a suite of time- and sensitivity optimized NMR experiments for rapid measurement of up to six RDCs per residue. Including such an RDC data set, measured in less...	nmrlearner	Journal club	0	09-17-2011 10:20 AM
Residual dipolar couplings: are multiple independent alignments always possible? Residual dipolar couplings: are multiple independent alignments always possible? Abstract RDCs for the 14 kDa protein hen egg-white lysozyme (HEWL) have been measured in eight different alignment media. The elongated shape and strongly positively charged surface of HEWL appear to limit the protein to four main alignment orientations. Furthermore, low levels of alignment and the proteinâ??s interaction with some alignment media increases the experimental error. Together with heterogeneity across the alignment media arising from constraints on temperature, pH and ionic strength for some...	nmrlearner	Journal club	0	12-26-2010 04:43 AM

RDCs are complementary to the more conventional use of NOEs to provide structural information. While NOEs are local-distance restraints, RDCs provide...	nmrlearner	Journal club	0	11-24-2010 09:25 PM
Facile measurement of 1Hâ??15N residual dipolar couplings in larger perdeuterated pro Abstract We present a simple method, ARTSY, for extracting 1JNH couplings and 1Hâ??15N RDCs from an interleaved set of two-dimensional 1Hâ??15N TROSY-HSQC spectra, based on the principle of quantitative J correlation. The primary advantage of the ARTSY method over other methods is the ability to measure couplings without scaling peak positions or altering the narrow line widths characteristic of TROSY spectra. Accuracy of the method is demonstrated for the model system GB3. Application to the catalytic core domain of HIV integrase, a 36 kDa homodimer with unfavorable spectral...	nmrlearner	Journal club	0	08-14-2010 04:19 AM
MQ-HNCO-TROSY for the measurement of scalar and residual dipolar couplings in larger Abstract We describe a novel pulse sequence, MQ-HNCO-TROSY, for the measurement of scalar and residual dipolar couplings between amide proton and nitrogen in larger proteins. The experiment utilizes the whole 2TN polarization transfer delay for labeling of 15N chemical shift in a constant time manner, which efficiently doubles the attainable resolution in 15N dimension with respect to the conventional HNCO-TROSY experiment. In addition, the accordion principle is employed for measuring (J + D)NHs, and the multiplet components are selected with the generalized version of the TROSY scheme...	nmrlearner	Journal club	0	08-14-2010 04:19 AM

Briggman and Joel R. Tolman Journal of Biomolecular NMR; 2008; 41(2) pp 61 - 76 Abstract: The straightforward interpretation of solution state residual dipolar couplings (RDCs) in terms of internuclear vector orientations generally requires prior knowledge of the alignment tensor, which in turn is normally estimated using a structural model. We have developed a protocol which allows the requirement for prior structural knowledge to...	daniel	Journal club	0	08-03-2008 03:54 AM
