  • Title: 3hJ coupling between C(alpha) and H(N) across hydrogen bonds in proteins.
    Author: Meissner A, Sorensen OW.
    Journal: J Magn Reson; 2000 Apr; 143(2):431-4. PubMed ID: 10729273.
    Abstract:
    J couplings between (13)C(alpha) and (1)H(N) across hydrogen bonds in proteins are reported for the first time, and a two- or three-dimensional NMR technique for their measurement is presented. The technique exploits the TROSY effect, i.e., the degree of interference between dipolar and chemical shift anisotropy relaxation mechanisms, for sensitivity enhancement. The 2D or 3D spectra exhibit E.COSY patterns where the splittings in the (13)CO and (1)H(N) dimensions are (1)J((13)C(alpha), (13)CO) and the desired (3h)J((13)C(alpha), (1)H(N)), respectively. A demonstration of the new method is shown for the (15)N,(13)C-labeled protein chymotrypsin inhibitor 2 where 17 (3h)J((13)C(alpha), (1)H(N)) coupling constants ranging from 0 to 1.4 Hz where identified and all of positive sign.
