Extending the Experimentally Accessible Range of Spin Dipole-Dipole Spectral Densities for Protein-Cosolute Interactions by Temperature-Dependent Solvent Paramagnetic Relaxation Enhancement Measurements.

ABSTRACT: Longitudinal (Γ₁) and transverse (Γ₂) solvent paramagnetic relaxation enhancement (sPRE) yields field-dependent information in the form of spectral densities that provides unique information related to cosolute-protein interactions and electrostatics. A typical protein sPRE data set can only sample a few points on the spectral density curve, J(ω), within a narrow frequency window (500 MHz to ∼1 GHz). However, complex interactions and dynamics of paramagnetic cosolutes around a protein make it difficult to directly interpret the few experimentally accessible points of J(ω). In this paper, we show that it is possible to significantly extend the experimentally accessible frequency range (corresponding to a range from ∼270 MHz to 1.8 GHz) by acquiring a seri
