NMR experiments on aligned samples of membrane proteins.

NMR methods can be used to determine the structures of membrane proteins. Lipids can be chosen so that protein-containing micelles, bicelles, or bilayers are available as samples. All three types of samples can be aligned weakly or strongly, depending on their rotational correlation time. Solution NMR methods can be used with weakly aligned micelle and small bicelle samples. Solid-state NMR methods can be used with mechanically aligned bilayer and magnetically aligned bicelle samples.

The multidimensional filter diagonalization method.

The theory of the multidimensional filter diagonalization method (FDM) described in the previous paper (V. A. Mandelshtam, 2000, J. Magn. Reson. 144, 343-356 (2000)) is applied to NMR time signals with up to four independent time variables. Direct projections of the multidimensional time signals produce new kinds of 2D spectra. The resolution obtained by FDM can be far superior to that obtained by conventional phase-sensitive FT processing, and correlation peaks in heteronuclear and homonuclear experiments can be condensed to sharp singlets, removing all spin-spin couplings. Examples of singlet-HSQC and singlet-TOCSY spectra show big gains in resolution. It is not necessary to have a finely digitized spectrum, in which the individual multiplet components are resolved, for the methods to work. Examples of FDM spectra, ranging from simple organic molecules and steroids to metalloproteins, are shown.
