Paramagnetic relaxation enhancement (PRE) has become a useful and widely applied tool in biomolecular NMR spectroscopy. In particular investigations of large complexes or transient contacts benefit from PRE effects. Frequently such studies involve modification of the biomacromolecules under study. We here present a method for editing NMR spectra by utilizing a soluble gadolinium complex that broadens nuclear spins being at or close to the macromolecule-solvent interface. NOE signals in NOESY spectra are selectively attenuated if surface exposed nuclear spins are involved. HSQC-type spectra with paramagnetic agent contain only signals of the interior of the protein, while the corresponding difference spectra harbor signals allocated to surface spins. Thus, the number of signals can be reduced helping to minimize spectral overlap in large proteins. The method reveals additional information about the localization of spins being helpful for structure determination of large complexes.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D011487 Protein Conformation The characteristic 3-dimensional shape of a protein, including the secondary, supersecondary (motifs), tertiary (domains) and quaternary structure of the peptide chain. PROTEIN STRUCTURE, QUATERNARY describes the conformation assumed by multimeric proteins (aggregates of more than one polypeptide chain). Conformation, Protein,Conformations, Protein,Protein Conformations
D011506 Proteins Linear POLYPEPTIDES that are synthesized on RIBOSOMES and may be further modified, crosslinked, cleaved, or assembled into complex proteins with several subunits. The specific sequence of AMINO ACIDS determines the shape the polypeptide will take, during PROTEIN FOLDING, and the function of the protein.

D004578 Electron Spin Resonance Spectroscopy A technique applicable to the wide variety of substances which exhibit paramagnetism because of the magnetic moments of unpaired electrons. The spectra are useful for detection and identification, for determination of electron structure, for study of interactions between molecules, and for measurement of nuclear spins and moments. (From McGraw-Hill Encyclopedia of Science and Technology, 7th edition) Electron nuclear double resonance (ENDOR) spectroscopy is a variant of the technique which can give enhanced resolution. Electron spin resonance analysis can now be used in vivo, including imaging applications such as MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING.

D019906 Nuclear Magnetic Resonance, Biomolecular NMR spectroscopy on small- to medium-size biological macromolecules. This is often used for structural investigation of proteins and nucleic acids, and often involves more than one isotope.

D025801 Ubiquitin A highly conserved 76-amino acid peptide universally found in eukaryotic cells that functions as a marker for intracellular PROTEIN TRANSPORT and degradation. Ubiquitin becomes activated through a series of complicated steps and forms an isopeptide bond to lysine residues of specific proteins within the cell. These "ubiquitinated" proteins can be recognized and degraded by proteosomes or be transported to specific compartments within the cell.
