An HNCO-based Pulse Scheme for the Measurement of 13Cα-1Hα One-bond Dipolar couplings in 15N, 13C Labeled Proteins

Abstract:
A triple resonance pulse scheme is presented for recording 13Cα-1Hα one-bond dipolar couplings in 15N, 13C labeled proteins. HNCO correlation maps are generated where the carbonyl chemical shift is modulated by the 13Cα-1Hα coupling, with the two doublet components separated into individual data sets. The experiment makes use of recently described methodology whereby the protein of interest is dissolved in a dilute solution of bicelles which orient above a critical temperature, thus permitting measurement of significant couplings (Tjandra and Bax, 1997a). An application to the protein ubiquitin is described.
