Relaxation in methyl groups is strongly influenced by cross-correlated interactions involving the methyl dipoles. One of the major interference effects results from intra-methyl (1)H-(13)C, (1)H-(1)H dipolar interactions, leading to significant differences in the relaxation of certain multiplet components that contribute to double- and zero-quantum (1)H-(13)C spectra. NMR experiments are presented for the measurement of this differential relaxation effect. It is shown that this difference in relaxation between double- and zero-quantum multiplet components can be used as a sensitive reporter of side chain dynamics and that accurate methyl axis order parameters can be measured in proteins that tumble with correlation times greater than approximately 5 ns. 相似文献

A two-dimensional TROSY-based SIM-(13)C(m)-(1)H(m)/(1)H-(15)N NMR experiment for simultaneous measurements of methyl (1) D (CH) and backbone amide (1) D (NH) residual dipolar couplings (RDC) in {U-[(15)N,(2)H]; Ileδ1-[(13)CH(3)]; Leu,Val-[(13)CH(3)/(12)CD(3)]}-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. The SIM-(13)C(m)-(1)H(m)/(1)H-(15)N data sets provide convenient means of establishing the alignment tensor characteristics via the measurement of (1) D (NH) RDCs in the same protein sample. 相似文献

An understanding of side chain motions in protein is of great interest since side chains often play an important role in protein folding and intermolecular interactions. A novel method for measuring the dynamics of methyl groups in uniformly 13C-, 15N-labeled proteins has been developed by our group. The method relies on the difference in peak intensities of 13C quartet components of methyl groups, in a spectrum recording the free evolution of 13C under proton coupling in a constant-time period. Cross-correlated relaxation rates between 13C-1H dipoles can be easily measured from the intensities of the multiplet components. The degree of the methyl restrictions (S 2) can be estimated from the cross-correlated relaxation rate. The method is demonstrated on a sample of human fatty acid binding protein in the absence of fatty acid. We obtained relaxation data for 33 out of 46 residues having methyl groups in apo-IFABP. It has been found that the magnitude of the CSA tensor of spin 13C in a methyl group could be estimated from the intensities of the 13C multiplet components. 相似文献

Cross-correlated fluctuations of isotropic chemical shifts can provide evidence for slow motions in biomolecules. Slow side-chain dynamics have been investigated in (15)N and (13)C enriched ubiquitin by monitoring the relaxation of C(alpha)-C(beta) two-spin coherences (Frueh et al., 2001). This method, which had hitherto been demonstrated only for protonated ubiquitin, has now been applied to both protonated and deuterated proteins. Deuteration reduces the dipole-dipole contributions to the DD/DD cross-correlation, thus facilitating the observation of subtle effects due to cross-correlation of the fluctuations of the isotropic (13)C chemical shifts. The decays of double- and zero-quantum coherences are significantly slower in the deuterated protein than in the protonated sample. Slow motions are found both in loops and in secondary structure elements. 相似文献

1H, 13C NMR chemical shifts and 1J(CH) coupling constants were measured for derivatives of heparin containing various sulfation patterns. 1H and 13C chemical shifts varied considerably after introducing electronegative sulfate groups. Chemical shifts of protons linked to carbons changed by up to 1 ppm on substitution with O- and N-sulfate or acetyl groups. Differences up to 10 ppm were detected for 13C chemical shifts in substituted glucosamine, but a less clear dependence was found in iduronate. 1J(CH) values formed two groups, corresponding to either sulfation or non-sulfation at positions 2 and 3 of glucosamine. O-sulfation caused increases up to 6 Hz in 1J(CH) and N-sulfation decreases up to 4 Hz. N-acetylation gave similar 1J(CH) values to N-sulfation. At positions 2 and 3 of iduronate the trend was less marked; 1J(CH) for O-sulfated positions usually increasing. Introduction of sulfate groups influences chemical shift and 1J(CH) values at the position of substitution, but also at more remote positions. 1J(CH) at the glycosidic linkage positions varied between free-amino and N-sulfated compounds, by up to 9 Hz. These results and changes in chemical shift values suggest that iduronate residues and the glycosidic linkages are affected, indicating overall conformational change. This may have important implications for biological activities. 相似文献

Multiplet-filtered and gradient-selected heteronuclear zero-quantum coherence (gsHZQC) TROSY experiments are described for measuring (1)H-(13)C correlations for (13)CH(3) methyl groups in proteins. These experiments provide improved suppression of undesirable, broad outer components of the heteronuclear zero-quantum multiplet in medium-sized proteins, or in flexible sites of larger proteins, compared to previously described HZQC sequences (Tugarinov et al. in J Am Chem Soc 126:4921-4925, 2004; Ollerenshaw et al. in J Biomol NMR 33:25-41, 2005). Hahn-echo versions of the gsHZQC experiment also are described for measuring zero- and double-quantum transverse relaxation rate constants for identification of chemical exchange broadening. Application of the proposed pulse sequences to Escherichia coli ribonuclease HI, with a molecular mass of 18 kD, indicates that improved multiplet suppression is obtained without substantial loss of sensitivity. 相似文献

Recently we have shown that HMQC spectra of protonated methyl groups in high molecular weight, highly deuterated proteins have large enhancements in sensitivity and resolution relative to HSQC-generated data sets. These enhancements derive from a TROSY effect in which complete cancellation of intra-methyl (1)H-(1)H and (1)H-(13)C dipolar interactions occurs for 50% of the signal in the case of HMQC, so long as the methyl is attached to a molecule tumbling in the macromolecular limit (Tugarinov, V., Hwang, P.M., Ollerenshaw, J.E., Kay, L.E. J. Am. Chem. Soc. (2003) 125, 10420-10428; Ollerenshaw, J.E., Tugarinov, V. and Kay, L.E. Magn. Reson. Chem. (2003) 41, 843-852. The first demonstration of this effect was made for isoleucine delta1 methyl groups in a highly deuterated 82 kDa protein, malate synthase G. As with (1)H-(15)N TROSY spectroscopy high levels of deuteration are critical for maximizing the TROSY effect. Here we show that excellent quality methyl TROSY spectra can be recorded on U-[(2)H] Iledelta1-[(13)CH(3)] Leu,Val-[(13)CH(3)/(12)CD(3)] protein samples, significantly extending the number of probes available for structural and dynamic studies of high molecular weight systems. 相似文献

Single-stranded-DNA-binding proteins (SSBs) are required for numerous genetic processes ranging from DNA synthesis to the repair of DNA damage, each of which requires binding with high affinity to ssDNA of variable base composition. To gain insight into the mechanism of sequence-nonspecific binding of ssDNA, NMR chemical shift and (15)N relaxation experiments were performed on an isolated ssDNA-binding domain (RPA70A) from the human SSB replication protein A. The backbone (13)C, (15)N, and (1)H resonances of RPA70A were assigned for the free protein and the d-CTTCA complex. The binding-induced changes in backbone chemical shifts were used to map out the ssDNA-binding site. Comparison to results obtained for the complex with d-C(5) showed that the basic mode of binding is independent of the ssDNA sequence, but that there are differences in the binding surfaces. Amide nitrogen relaxation rates (R(1) and R(2)) and (1)H-(15)N NOE values were measured for RPA70A in the absence and presence of d-CTTCA. Analysis of the data using the Model-Free formalism and spectral density mapping approaches showed that the structural changes in the binding site are accompanied by some significant changes in flexibility of the primary DNA-binding loops on multiple timescales. On the basis of these results and comparisons to related proteins, we propose that the mechanism of sequence-nonspecific binding of ssDNA involves dynamic remodeling of the binding surface. 相似文献

The mobility of 15N labeled proteins can be characterized by measuring the cross-correlation rates N,NI that govern the conversion of Zeeman order Nz of an amide 15N nucleus into longitudinal two-spin order 2NzIz involving the amide 15N and 1H nuclei. This represents an alternative to the measurement of 15N self-relaxation rates 1/T1 and 1/T2 or 1/T1. The rate of interconversion between Nz and 2NzIz is due to cross-correlation between fluctuations of different interactions and is not affected by a variety of relaxation mechanisms that contribute to the self-relaxation rates 1/T1, 1/T2 and 1/T1. Spin diffusion among protons, which affects the measurements, can be quenched by various means that are evaluated by experiments and simulations. By applying an off-resonance radio-frequency (RF) field in the vicinity of the nitrogen resonance, the spectral density function J() can be determined at the frequency origin and at the nitrogen Larmor frequency. The methods are applied to the paramagnetic High-Potential Iron-Sulfur Protein iso I (HiPIP I) from E. halophila in its reduced state. 相似文献

Measurement of 15N relaxation in deuterated amide groups in proteins using direct nitrogen detection
15N chemical shielding tensors contain useful structural information, and their knowledge is essential for accurate analysis of protein backbone dynamics. The anisotropic component (CSA) of 15N chemical shielding can be obtained from 15N relaxation measurements in solution. However, the predominant contribution to nitrogen relaxation from 15N-(1)H dipolar coupling in amide groups limits the sensitivity of these measurements to the actual CSA values. Here we present nitrogen-detected NMR experiments for measuring 15N relaxation in deuterated amide groups in proteins, where the dipolar contribution to 15N relaxation is significantly reduced by the deuteration. Under these conditions nitrogen spin relaxation becomes a sensitive probe for variations in 15N chemical shielding tensors. Using the nitrogen direct-detection experiments we measured the rates of longitudinal and transverse 15N relaxation for backbone amides in protein G in D(2)O at 11.7 T. The measured relaxation rates are validated by comparing the overall rotational diffusion tensor obtained from these data with that from the conventional 15N relaxation measurements in H(2)O. This analysis revealed a 17-24 degree angle between the NH-bond and the unique axis of the 15N chemical shielding tensor. 相似文献

In three-dimensional and four-dimensional experiments on doubly labelled proteins not only heteronuclear (13C or 15N) but also proton (1H) frequencies are often indirectly monitored, rather than being directly observed. In this communication we show how in these experiments by overlaying 1H and heteronuclear evolutions one can obtain decreased apparent relaxation rates of 1H signals, yielding improved sensitivity. The new method applies to spin pairs like 1H-15N, as in amide groups, or 1H-13C, as in methine groups of alpha or aromatic systems. 相似文献

The assignments of individual magnetic resonances of backbone nuclei of a larger protein, ribonuclease H from Escherichia coli, which consists of 155 amino acid residues and has a molecular mass of 17.6 kDa are presented. To remove the problem of degenerate chemical shifts, which is inevitable in proteins of this size, three-dimensional NMR was applied. The strategy for the sequential assignment was, first, resonance peaks of amides were classified into 15 amino acid types by 1H-15N HMQC experiments with samples in which specific amino acids were labeled with 15N. Second, the amide 1H-15N peaks were connected along the amino acid sequence by tracing intraresidue and sequential NOE cross peaks. In order to obtain unambiguous NOE connectivities, four types of heteronuclear 3D NMR techniques, 1H-15N-1H 3D NOESY-HMQC, 1H-15N-1H 3D TOCSY-HMQC, 13C-1H-1H 3D HMQC-NOESY, and 13C-1H-1H 3D HMQC-TOCSY, were applied to proteins uniformly labeled either with 15N or with 13C. This method gave a systematic way to assign backbone nuclei (N, NH, C alpha H, and C alpha) of larger proteins. Results of the sequential assignments and identification of secondary structure elements that were revealed by NOE cross peaks among backbone protons are reported. 相似文献

The simultaneous interpretation of a suite of dipole-dipole and dipole-CSA cross-correlation rates involving the backbone nuclei 13C, 1H,13CO, 15N and 1HN can be used to resolve the ambiguities associated with each individual cross-correlation rate. The method is based on the transformation of experimental cross-correlation rates via calculated values based on standard peptide plane geometry and solid-state 13CO CSA parameters into a dihedral angle probability surface. Triple resonance NMR experiments with improved sensitivity have been devised for the quantification of relaxation interference between 1H(i)-13C(i)/15N(i)-1HN(i) and 1H(i–1)-13C(i–1)/15N(i)-1HN(i) dipole-dipole mechanisms in 15N,13C-labeled proteins. The approach is illustrated with an application to 13C,15N-labeled ubiquitin. 相似文献

The dynamics of amino acid side chains of uniformly 13C/15N-enriched ribonuclease T1 (RNase T1) have been investigated. Heteronuclear longitudinal relaxation rates, 1H/13C NOEs, and transverse cross-correlated cross-relaxation rates between the Sx and the SxIz1Iz2 operators (SIIS cross relaxation) [Ernst and Ernst (1994) J. Magn. Reson., A110, 202-213] have been determined in this study. New pulse sequences for measuring the longitudinal relaxation time and the heteronuclear NOE of aliphatic side chain carbon nuclei were developed using the CCONH type of magnetization transfer and 1HN detection. In addition, an improved pulse sequence for the determination of the SIIS cross relaxation is presented. For the analysis of the relaxation rates, the model of restricted rotational diffusion around the 1 dihedral angle has been applied [London and Avitabile (1978) J. Am. Chem. Soc., 100, 7159-7165]. These techniques were used in order to describe the side chain dynamics of the small globular protein RNase T1 (104 amino acids, MW about 11 kDa). Qualitative values of microdynamical parameters were obtained for 73 out of 85 amino acid side chains (glycine and alanine residues excepted) whereas more quantitative values were derived for 67 -CH and -CH2 groups. 相似文献

NMR investigations of larger macromolecules (>20 kDa) are severely hindered by rapid 1H and 13C transverse relaxation. Replacement of non-exchangeable protons with deuterium removes many efficient 1H-1H and 1H-13C relaxation pathways. The main disadvantage of deuteration is that many of the protons which would normally be the source of NOE-based distance restraints are removed. We report the development of a novel labeling strategy which is based on specific protonation and 14N-labeling of the residues phenylalanine, tyrosine, threonine, isoleucine and valine in a fully deuterated, 15N-labeled background. This allows the application of heteronuclear half-filters, 15N-editing and 1H-TOCSY experiments to select for particular magnetization transfer pathways. Results from investigations of a 47 kDa dimeric protein labeled in this way demonstrated that the method provides useful information for the structure determination of large proteins. 相似文献

A new isotope-assisted cross-relaxation editing experiment, [1H-13C]DINE-NOESY[1H-15N]HSQC (DINE = Double INEPT Edited), is proposed. It is based on the selectiveinversion of CH/CH3 or CH2 protons in the middle of the mixing time. The experiment sortsout the spin diffusion paths according to the principal mediators, either the CH/CH3 or theCH2 protons. This is useful in the structure refinement process, as it enables proper alignmentof the aliphatic protons in the vicinity of NH protons. 相似文献

The Fv fragment, which is a smallest antigen-binding unit of immunoglobulin, has been used for a 1H-15N shift correlation NMR study of the dynamical structure of the antibody combining site. Fv has been prepared by clostripain digestion of a mouse anti-dansyl IgG2a monoclonal antibody that lacks the entire CH1 domain. We have previously reported that of the six hypervariable regions, three each from the heavy chain (H1, H2, and H3) and the light chain (L1, L2, and L3), H3 is primarily responsible for the antigen binding in the anti-dansyl Fv fragment. The backbone amide nitrogens of all non-proline amino acid residues in H3 have been multiply labeled with 15N. [15N]T2 relaxation times and hydrogen-deuterium exchange rates of the amide groups of the main chain were measured in the absence and presence of epsilon-dansyl-L-lysine (DNS-Lys). It has been shown that (1) in the absence of DNS-Lys H3 displays a significant degree of internal motion and (2) antigen binding induces a significant change in the dynamical structure of H3. 相似文献

Backbone 15N relaxation parameters (R1, R2, 1H-15N NOE) have been measured for a 22-residue recombinant variant of the S-peptide in its free and S-protein bound forms. NMR relaxation data were analyzed using the "model-free" approach (Lipari & Szabo, 1982). Order parameters obtained from "model-free" simulations were used to calculate 1H-15N bond vector entropies using a recently described method (Yang & Kay, 1996), in which the form of the probability density function for bond vector fluctuations is derived from a diffusion-in-a-cone motional model. The average change in 1H-15N bond vector entropies for residues T3-S15, which become ordered upon binding of the S-peptide to the S-protein, is -12.6+/-1.4 J/mol.residue.K. 15N relaxation data suggest a gradient of decreasing entropy values moving from the termini toward the center of the free peptide. The difference between the entropies of the terminal and central residues is about -12 J/mol residue K, a value comparable to that of the average entropy change per residue upon complex formation. Similar entropy gradients are evident in NMR relaxation studies of other denatured proteins. Taken together, these observations suggest denatured proteins may contain entropic contributions from non-local interactions. Consequently, calculations that model the entropy of a residue in a denatured protein as that of a residue in a di- or tri-peptide, might over-estimate the magnitude of entropy changes upon folding. 相似文献

The dynamics of the backbone of the electron-transfer protein plastocyanin from the cyanobacterium Anabaena variabilis were determined from the (15)N and (13)C(alpha) R(1) and R(2) relaxation rates and steady-state [(1)H]-(15)N and [(1)H]-(13)C nuclear Overhauser effects (NOEs) using the model-free approach. The (13)C relaxation studies were performed using (13)C in natural abundance. Overall, it is found that the protein backbone is rigid. However, the regions that are important for the function of the protein show moderate mobility primarily on the microsecond to millisecond time scale. These regions are the "northern" hydrophobic site close to the metal site, the metal site itself, and the "eastern" face of the molecule. In particular, the mobility of the latter region is interesting in light of recent findings indicating that residues also on the eastern face of plastocyanins from prokaryotes are important for the function of the protein. The study also demonstrates that relaxation rates and NOEs of the (13)C(alpha) nuclei of proteins are valuable supplements to the conventional (15)N relaxation measurements in studies of protein backbone dynamics. 相似文献

Protein dynamics and thermodynamics can be characterized through measurements of relaxation rates of side chain (2)H and (13)C, and backbone (15)N nuclei using NMR spectroscopy. The rates reflect protein motions on timescales from picoseconds to milliseconds. Backbone and methyl side chain NMR relaxation measurements for several proteins are beginning to reveal the role of protein dynamics in protein stability and ligand binding. 相似文献
