The sequence-specific assignment of the 1H-NMR spectrum of an enzyme, horse-muscle acylphosphatase.
A complete range of two-dimensional NMR experiments was used for the assignment of the 1H-NMR spectrum of horse muscle acylphosphatase. Firstly the spin systems of some easily identifiable amino acid side chains were assigned. These side chains involved all the aromatic residues and all the leucine, valine, isoleucine, threonine, alanine, proline as well as some of the glycine residues. Analysis of nuclear Overhauser enhancement spectra in our previous work had identified the sequential and long-range patterns characteristics for secondary structure elements. This result had also provided the identification of the main-chain alpha and amide proton resonances. Several of the completely assigned spin systems were then identified as being part of the secondary structure units which led, after analysis of the primary amino acid sequence, to unambiguous sequence-specific assignments. The identification and assignment of the remaining side-chain resonances was then completed and are reported here. These results provide a complete data base for the three-dimensional structure determination of this enzyme in solution.
