摘要: Magic-angle-spinning solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (SSNMR) studies of natively diamagnetic uniformly 13C,15N-enriched proteins, intentionally modified with side chains containing paramagnetic ions, are presented, the aim using concomitant relaxation enhancements (PREs) as a source long-range structural information. The ions incorporated at selected sites in protein EDTA−metal complexes by introducing solvent-exposed cysteine residue site-directed mutagenesis, followed modification thiol-specific reagent, N-[S-(2-pyridylthio)cysteaminyl]EDTA-metal. Here, this approach is demonstrated for K28C and T53C mutants B1 immunoglobulin-binding domain G (GB1), EDTA-Mn2+ EDTA-Cu2+ chains. It shown that incorporation moieties, exhibiting different times spin quantum numbers, facilitates convenient modulation longitudinal (R1) transverse (R2, R1ρ) r...
