Provided that care is taken in adjusting the WATERGATE element of a (1)H-(15)N TROSY-HSQC experiment, such that neither the water magnetization nor the (1)H(α) protons are inverted by its final 180° pulse, (3)JHNHα couplings can be measured directly from splittings in the (1)H dimension of the spectrum. With band-selective (1)H decoupling, very high (15)N resolution can be achieved. A complete set of (3)JHNHα values, ranging from 3.4 to 10.1 Hz was measured for the 56-residue third domain of IgG-binding protein G (GB3). Using the H-N-C(α)-H(α) dihedral angles extracted from a RDC-refined structure of GB3, (3)JHNHα values predicted by a previously parameterized Karplus equation agree to within a root-mean-square deviation (rmsd) of 0.37 Hz with the experimental data. Values measured for the Alzheimer's implicated Aβ(1-40) peptide fit to within an rmsd of 0.45 Hz to random coil (3)JHNHα values.
只要在调整(1)H-(15)N TROSY-HSQC实验的水门控元件时小心谨慎,使得水的磁化强度和(1)H(α)质子都不会被其最后的180°脉冲反转,就可以直接从光谱的(1)H维度的裂分中测量(3)JHNHα耦合常数。通过带选择性的(1)H去耦,可以实现非常高的(15)N分辨率。对于IgG结合蛋白G(GB3)的56个残基的第三结构域,测量了一套完整的(3)JHNHα值,范围从3.4到10.1 Hz。利用从GB3的RDC精修结构中提取的H-N-C(α)-H(α)二面角,通过先前参数化的Karplus方程预测的(3)JHNHα值与实验数据的均方根偏差(rmsd)在0.37 Hz以内。对阿尔茨海默病相关的Aβ(1-40)肽测量的值与随机卷曲的(3)JHNHα值的rmsd在0.45 Hz以内。
