Problems! Detergent peaks Detergent signals cause dynamic range problems (Detergent signals cause spectral overlap) Detergent deuteration is often not feasible Problem: 1H,1H NOESY spectra do not show protein signals Computational Biology Laboratory Course – Klein-Seetharaman – NMR Lecture

Assignment is needed! Computational Biology Laboratory Course – Klein-Seetharaman – NMR Lecture
Several different assignment strategies exist Most easily automated: • HNCO • HNCOCACB • HNCOCA • HNCACB • HNCA • HNCACO Computational Biology Laboratory Course – Klein-Seetharaman – NMR Lecture
Experiments Figure 9. HNCO experiment. The magnetization is transferred (blue arrows) from the HN(i) proton via the N(i) atom to the directly attached CO(i-1) carbon atom and returns the same way to the HN(i) nucleus which is directly detected. The frequencies of all three nuclei (red) are detected.

Experiments Figure 14. HNCA experiment. The HNCA experiment is the prototype of all triple resonance experiments. Starting at an amide proton (H) the magnetization is transferred to the directly attached nitrogen atom (N) which is measured as the first spectral dimension. Then the magnetization is transferred to the Calpha nucleus (CA) which is measured as second dimension. Afterwards, the magnetization is transferred back the same way to the amide proton which is measured as the third (direct) dimension.

Experiments Figure 15. HNCACO experiment. In the HN(CA)CO experiment the magnetization is transferred from the HN(i) proton via the N(i) atom and the CA nucleus (Calpha(i)) to the CO(i) carbon atom and back the same way. The Calpha atom (yellow) acts only as relay nucleus, its frequency is not detected. It is only the frequencies of HN, N and CO (red) which are detected.
