Increasing the Chemical-Shift Dispersion of Unstructured Proteins with a Covalent Lanthanide Shift Reagent.


ABSTRACT: The study of intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) by NMR often suffers from highly overlapped resonances that prevent unambiguous chemical-shift assignments, and data analysis that relies on well-separated resonances. We present a covalent paramagnetic lanthanide-binding tag (LBT) for increasing the chemical-shift dispersion and facilitating the chemical-shift assignment of challenging, repeat-containing IDPs. Linkage of the DOTA-based LBT to a cysteine residue induces pseudo-contact shifts (PCS) for resonances more than 20 residues from the spin-labeling site. This leads to increased chemical-shift dispersion and decreased signal overlap, thereby greatly facilitating chemical-shift assignment. This approach is applicable to IDPs of varying sizes and complexity, and is particularly helpful for repeat-containing IDPs and low-complexity regions. This results in improved efficiency for IDP analysis and binding studies.
