We report a new solid-state multidimensional NMR approach based on the cross-polarization with variable-contact pulse sequence [ Paluch , P. ; Pawlak , T. ; Amoureux , J.-P. ; Potrzebowski , M. J. J. Magn. Reson. 233 , 2013 , 56 ], with H inverse detection and very fast magic angle spinning (ν = 60 kHz), dedicated to the measurement of local molecular motions of H-N vectors. The introduced three-dimensional experiments, H-N-H and hCA(N)H, are particularly useful for the study of molecular dynamics of proteins and other complex structures. The applicability and power of this methodology have been revealed by employing as a model sample the GB-1 small protein doped with NaCuEDTA. The results clearly prove that the dispersion of H-N dipolar coupling constants well correlates with higher order structure of the protein. Our approach complements the conventional studies and offers a fast and reasonably simple method.
我们报告了一种新的基于交叉极化与可变接触脉冲序列(Paluch,P.;Pawlak,T.;Amoureux,J.-P.;Potrzebowski,M. J. J. Magn. Reson. 233,2013,56)的固态多维 NMR 方法,采用 H 反转检测和非常快速的魔角旋转(ν=60 kHz),专门用于测量 H-N 矢量的局部分子运动。所引入的三维实验 H-N-H 和 hCA(N)H 特别适用于研究蛋白质和其他复杂结构的分子动力学。通过使用掺杂有 NaCuEDTA 的 GB-1 小蛋白作为模型样品,证明了该方法的适用性和强大功能。结果清楚地证明了 H-N 偶极耦合常数的分散与蛋白质的高级结构很好地相关。我们的方法补充了传统研究,并提供了一种快速且相对简单的方法。
