High resolution methyl selective ¹³C-NMR of proteins in solution and solid state.
New ¹³C-detected NMR experiments have been devised for molecules in solution and solid state, which provide chemical shift correlations of methyl groups with high resolution, selectivity and sensitivity. The experiments achieve selective methyl detection by exploiting the one bond J-coupling between the ¹³C-methyl nucleus and its directly attached ¹³C spin in a molecule. In proteins such correlations edit the ¹³C-resonances of different methyl containing residues into distinct spectral regions yielding a high resolution spectrum. This has a range of applications as exemplified for different systems such as large proteins, intrinsically disordered polypeptides and proteins with a paramagnetic centre.
