A new solid-state NMR method is described for obtaining long-range distance constraints in nanocrystalline samples of 13C-, 15N-, and 2H-enriched protein. The selects only those 13C or 15N nuclei close to 1Hs dipolar recoupling. When used with extensive deuteration, the bath abundant spins made appear dilute. Contacts over 4.5 Å are readily observed human ubiquitin.

A new indirect detection scheme for obtaining (15)N/(1)H shift correlation spectra in crystalline proteins is described. Excellent water suppression achieved without the need pulsed field gradients, and using only a 2-step phase cycle. Careful attention to overall NMR instrument stability was found critical best resolution sensitivity. Magnetic dilution by deuteration of protein combination with high-speed magic angle spinning produces (1)H resonances averaging 0.22 ppm width, some cases...

Solid-state NMR 2D spectroscopy was used to correlate carbon backbone and side-chain chemical shifts for uniformly 13C,15N-enriched microcrystalline ubiquitin. High applied field strengths, 800 MHz protons, moderate proton decoupling fields, 80−100 kHz, high magic angle sample spinning frequencies, 20 were narrow the most of line widths 0.5−0.8 ppm. Homonuclear magnetization transfer effected by matching RF frequency, so-called dipolar-assisted rotational resonance (DARR) (Takegoshi, K.;...

In polycrystalline samples, NMR "powder spectra" are broad and much structural information is lost as a result of the orientational disorder. this Letter Fourier-transform in zero magnetic field described. With no preferred direction space, all crystallites contribute equivalently resolved dipolar splittings can be interpreted directly terms internuclear distances. This opens possiblity molecular structure determination without need for single crystals or oriented samples.

A new approach to spectral editing of CPMAS 13C spectra is presented that combines depolarization and polarization inversion the rare spins. Four different have been obtained in which intensities nonprotonated 13C, 13CH, 13CH2, 13CH3 groups are affected a predictable fashion. proper combination these yields 13CH2-only subspectrum, 13CH-only spectrum with only. If quaternary carbons can be distinguished by their chemical shifts, intensity-corrected 13CH3-only quaternary-13C-only subspectra...

Cross-polarization magic-angle-spinning 13C NMR has become an important analytical method for the study of organic solids. At high field strengths, magic-angle-sample-spinning (MASS) rates required to suppress spinning sidebands can substantially dipolar couplings among abundant protons. This results in dramatic changes cross-polarization (CP) dynamics. For samples with both weak homonuclear and heteronuclear couplings, matching condition is only 1 ∼ 2 kHz wide at 10 MASS rates. The maximum...
