Transferred-Rotational-Echo Double Resonance.

ABSTRACT: Internuclear distance determination is the foundation for NMR-based structure calculation. However, high-precision distance measurement is a laborious process requiring lengthy data acquisitions due to the large set of multidimensional spectra needed at different mixing times. This prevents application to large or challenging molecular systems. Here, we present a new approach, transferred-rotational-echo double resonance (TREDOR), a heteronuclear transfer method in which we simultaneously detect both starting and transferred signals in a single spectrum. This co-acquisition is used to compensate for coherence decay, resulting in accurate and precise distance determination by a single parameter fit using a single spectrum recorded at an ideal mixing time. We showcase TREDOR with the microcrystalline SH3 protein using 3D spectra to resolve resonances. By combining the measured N-C and H-C distances, we calculate the structure of SH3, which converges to the correct fold, with a root-mean-square deviation of 2.1 Å compared to a reference X-ray structure. The TREDOR data used in the structure calculation were acquired in only 4 days on a 600 MHz instrument. This is achieved due to the more than 2-fold time saving afforded by co-acquisition of additional information and demonstrates TREDOR as a fast and straightforward method for determining structures via magic-angle spinning NMR.

Project description:Membrane locations of peptides and proteins are often critical to their functions. Solid-state rotational-echo double-resonance (REDOR) nuclear magnetic resonance is applied to probe the locations of two peptides via peptide (13)CO to lipid (2)H distance measurements. The peptides are KALP, an ?-helical membrane-spanning peptide, and HFP, the ?-sheet N-terminal fusion peptide of the HIV gp41 fusion protein that plays an important role in HIV-host cell membrane fusion. Both peptides are shown to have at least two distinct locations within the hydrocarbon core of gel-phase membranes. The multiple locations are attributed to snorkeling of lysine side chains for KALP and to the distribution of antiparallel ?-sheet registries for HFP. The relative population of each location is also quantitated. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first clear experimental support of multiple peptide locations within the membrane hydrocarbon core. These data are for gel-phase membranes, but the approach should work for liquid-ordered membranes containing cholesterol and may be applicable to liquid-disordered membranes with appropriate additional analysis to take into account protein and lipid motion. This paper also describes the methodological development of (13)CO-(2)H REDOR using the lyophilized I4 peptide that is ?-helical and (13)CO-labeled at A9 and (2)H?-labeled at A8. The I4 spins are well-approximated as an ensemble of isolated (13)CO-(2)H spin pairs each separated by 5.0 Å with a 37 Hz dipolar coupling. A pulse sequence with rectangular 100 kHz (2)H ? pulses results in rapid and extensive buildup of REDOR (?S/S0) with a dephasing time (?). The buildup is well-fit by a simple exponential function with a rate of 24 Hz and an extent close to 1. These parameter values reflect nonradiative transitions between the (2)H spin states during the dephasing period. Each spin pair spends approximately two-thirds of its time in the (13)CO-(2)H (m = ±1) states and approximately one-third of its time in the (13)CO-(2)H (m = 0) state and contributes to the ?S/S0 buildup during the former but not the latter time segments.
