An efficient combination of BEST and NUS methods in multidimensional NMR spectroscopy for high throughput analysis of proteins.

ABSTRACT: Application of Non Uniform Sampling (NUS) along with Band-selective Excitation Short-Transient (BEST) NMR experiments has been demonstrated for obtaining the important residue-specific atomic level backbone chemical shift values in short durations of time. This application has been demonstrated with both well-folded (ubiquitin) and unfolded (α-synuclein) proteins alike. With this strategy, the experiments required for determining backbone chemical shifts can be performed very rapidly, i.e., in ∼2 hours of spectrometer time, and this data can be used to calculate the backbone folds of proteins using well established algorithms. This will be of great value for structural proteomic investigations on one hand, where the speed of structure determination is a limiting factor and for appli
