Peptide bond conformation in peptides and proteins probed by dipolar coupling-chemical shift tensor correlation solid-state NMR.

ABSTRACT: Multidimensional magic-angle spinning solid-state NMR experiments are described that permit cis and trans peptide bonds in uniformly ¹³C,¹⁵N-labeled peptides and proteins to be unambiguously distinguished in residue-specific manner by determining the relative orientations of the amide ¹³C' CSA and ¹H-¹⁵N dipolar coupling tensors. The experiments are demonstrated for model peptides glycylglycine and 2,5-diketopiperazine containing trans and cis peptide bonds, respectively. Subsequently, the measurements are extended to two representative proteins that contain exclusively trans peptide bonds, microcrystalline B3 immunoglobulin domain of protein G and Y145Stop human prion protein amyloid fibrils, to illustrate their applicability to a wid
