X Abstract

Amide one-bond 15 N– 1 H scalar couplings of 15 N- and [ 15 N, 2 H]-isotopically enriched ubiquitin have been measured with the Quantitative J approach by monitoring NMR signal intensity modulation. Scalar couplings of the non-deuterated protein are in average 0.6 Hz larger than values of deuterated ubiquitin. This deviation is 30 times the error derived from experiment reproducibility. Refocusing dipole/dipole cross-correlated relaxation decreases the discrepancy to 0.1 Hz, suggesting that it likely originates from relaxation interference. Alternatively, the subtraction of J values obtained at different magnetic fields largely reduces the relaxation effects. In contrast, the dynamic frequency shift whose main contribution to 1 J ( 15 N– 1 H) arises from 15 N chemical shielding anisotropy/NH dipole cross-correlation, is not eliminated by refocusing spin evolution under this interaction. Furthermore, the average difference of 1 J ( 15 N– 1 H) values at two magnetic fields closely agrees with the theoretical expected difference in the dynamic frequency shift.

CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
