This paper demonstrates an important step in the structure determination of uniformly labeled solid proteins - the sequential assignment. Nearly all of the carbon and nitrogen resonances of microcrystalline samples of the SH3 domain are assigned through homonuclear and heteronuclear dipolar correlations in spectra from two-dimensional magic-angle spinning NMR.

This application of the new frequency-selective REDOR experiment to bacteriorhodopsin shows the promise of this method for mapping multiple distances in the active site of a uniformly labeled membrane protein. Distances in the 4-5 Å range are measured from the Schiff base nitrogen to two important aspartate carboxyls.

Measurements of dynamics of the pore-forming colicin Ia protein in the aqueous and membrane-bound states of this protein show increased mobility on membrane binding, which is consistent with current views of this protein. This study highlights the many different solid-state NMR experiments that can probe a variety of motional timescales and that, when combined with an extensive labeling protocol, can probe global dynamics throughout the protein.

J Mol Biol. 313:2001;845-859. For studies of biosynthetically labeled large proteins, methods are needed to direct the experiment to the site of interest in a background of other labeled sites. This paper describes a novel NMR approach: sequential labeling of residues that occur as unique dipeptides in the sequence of the 13 kDa HIV-1 Rev protein and double quantum NMR methods are used to measure structural constraints determining the backbone conformation at several sites.

Site-directed rotational resonance solid-state NMR distance measurements probe structure and mechanism in the transmembrane domain of the serine bacterial chemoreceptor. Biochemistry. 41:2002;3025-3036. This study uses a biochemical approach to direct the NMR experiment to a specific site in the 60 kDa membrane-bound Ser receptor: site-directed mutagenesis introduces a unique residue for distance measurements that test current models for both the structure of the transmembrane domain and for the ligand-induced conformational change. A subtraction method for correcting for natural abundance contributions is demonstrated in this first application of rotational resonance to measure a distance involving an unresolved resonance.

Biochemistry. 40:2001;1358-1366. Interhelical distance measurements in two signaling states provide the first high-resolution measurement of the ligand-induced conformational change in an intact, membrane-bound chemotaxis receptor. Such experiments can map and follow this change to determine the mechanism in the native protein.

This variation of the REDOR method for heteronuclear dipolar coupling measurements could provide additional structural information in many REDOR studies. By simply using slower magic-angle spinning speeds and measuring the sideband intensities on the same sample, this experiment can measure the relative orientations of the dipolar and chemical shift anisotropy tensors.
