In Situ Real-Time Quantitative Determination in Electrochemical Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy.

ABSTRACT: For the purpose of acquiring highly sensitive and differential spectra in in situ electrochemical nuclear magnetic resonance (EC-NMR) spectroscopy, uniform distributions of amplitudes and phases of radio frequency (RF) fields in the sample are needed for consistent flip angles of all nuclei under scrutiny. However, intrinsic electromagnetic incompatibility exists between such requirements with electric properties of the conductive material in an electrolytic cell, including metallic electrodes and ionic electrolytes. This proposed work presents the adverse repercussions of gradually varying electrolyte conductivity, which is strongly associated with the change of ion concentrations in a real-time electrochemical reaction, on spatial distributions of RF field amplitude and phase in the detective zone of an NMR probe coil. To compensate for such a non-linear trend of the spatial dependent distribution, we eliminate different excitation effects of the RF field on the build-in external standard and the electrolyte both situated in nearly the same detection area, as well as promote the greater accuracy of quantitative determination of reactant concentrations. The reliability and effectiveness of the improved in situ EC-qNMR (quantitative NMR) method are confirmed by the real-time monitoring of the electrochemical advanced oxidation process for phenol, in which instant concentrations of reactants and products are detected simultaneously to verify the degradation reaction scheme of phenol.

Resolving the role of plant glutamate dehydrogenase. I. In vivo real time nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy experiments.

Project description:In higher plants the glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) enzyme catalyzes the reversible amination of 2-oxoglutarate to form glutamate, using ammonium as a substrate. For a better understanding of the physiological function of GDH either in ammonium assimilation or in the supply of 2-oxoglutarate, we used transgenic tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) plants overexpressing the two genes encoding the enzyme. An in vivo real time (15)N-nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy approach allowed the demonstration that, when the two GDH genes were overexpressed individually or simultaneously, the transgenic plant leaves did not synthesize glutamate in the presence of ammonium when glutamine synthetase (GS) was inhibited. In contrast we confirmed that the primary function of GDH is to deaminate Glu. When the two GDH unlabeled substrates ammonium and Glu were provided simultaneously with either [(15)N]Glu or (15)NH(4)(+) respectively, we found that the ammonium released from the deamination of Glu was reassimilated by the enzyme GS, suggesting the occurrence of a futile cycle recycling both ammonium and Glu. Taken together, these results strongly suggest that the GDH enzyme, in conjunction with NADH-GOGAT, contributes to the control of leaf Glu homeostasis, an amino acid that plays a central signaling and metabolic role at the interface of the carbon and nitrogen assimilatory pathways. Thus, in vivo NMR spectroscopy appears to be an attractive technique to follow the flux of metabolites in both normal and genetically modified plants.

In Situ, Real-Time Visualization of Electrochemistry Using Magnetic Resonance Imaging.

Project description:The drive to develop better electrochemical energy storage devices requires the development of not only new materials, but also better understanding of the underpinning chemical and dynamical processes within such devices during operation, for which new analytical techniques are required. Currently, there are few techniques that can probe local composition and transport in the electrolyte during battery operation. In this paper, we report a novel application of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for probing electrochemical processes in a model electrochemical cell. Using MRI, the transport and zinc and oxygen electrochemistry in an alkaline electrolyte, typical of that found in zinc-air batteries, are investigated. Magnetic resonance relaxation maps of the electrolyte are used to visualize the chemical composition and electrochemical processes occurring during discharge in this model metal-air battery. Such experiments will be useful in the development of new energy storage/conversion devices, as well as other electrochemical technologies.

Super-Resolved Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy.

Project description:We present a novel method that breaks the resolution barrier in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, allowing one to accurately estimate the chemical shift values of highly overlapping or broadened peaks. This problem is routinely encountered in NMR when peaks have large linewidths due to rapidly decaying signals, hindering its application. We address this problem based on the notion of finite-rate-of-innovation (FRI) sampling, which is based on the premise that signals such as the NMR signal, can be accurately reconstructed using fewer measurements than that required by existing approaches. The FRI approach leads to super-resolution, beyond the limits of contemporary NMR techniques. Using this method, we could measure for the first time small changes in chemical shifts during the formation of a Gold nanorod-protein complex, facilitating the quantification of the strength of such interactions. The method thus opens up new possibilities for the application and acceleration of multidimensional NMR spectroscopy across a wide range of systems.

Structure determination of human Lck unique and SH3 domains by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy.

Project description:BackgroundProtein tyrosine kinases are involved in signal transduction pathways that regulate cell growth, differentiation, activation and transformation. Human lymphocyte specific kinase (Lck) is a 56 kDa protein involved in T-cell- and IL2-receptor signaling. Three-dimensional structures are known for SH3, SH2 and kinase domains of Lck as well as for other tyrosine kinases. No structure is known for the unique domain of any Src-type tyrosine kinase.ResultsLck(1-120) comprising unique and SH3 domains was structurally investigated by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. We found the unique domain, in contrast to the SH3 part, to have basically no defined structural elements. The solution structure of the SH3 part could be determined with very high precision. It does not show significant differences to Lck SH3 in the absence of the unique domain. Minor differences were observed to the X-ray structure of Lck SH3.ConclusionThe unique domain of Lck does not contain any defined structure elements in the absence of ligands and membranes. Presence of the unique domain is not relevant to the three-dimensional structure of the Lck SH3 domain.

Hygroscopic Tendencies of Substances Used as Calibrants for Quantitative Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy.

Project description:Atmospheric moisture can contaminate calibrants for quantitative nuclear magnetic resonance (qNMR) spectroscopy and cause systematic errors in qNMR measurements. Therefore, coulometric Karl Fischer (CKF) titration was used to evaluate the hygroscopic tendencies of several organic compounds that are commonly used as calibrants for qNMR spectroscopy: benzoic acid, dimethyl sulfone, 1,3,5-trimethoxybenzene, acetanilide, dimethyl terephthalate, and 1,2,4,5-tetramethylbenzene. Samples were placed in a sealed humidity chamber at 100% relative humidity (RH) and a temperature of 295.4 ± 0.9 K. Over the course of months, portions of each sample were analyzed by CKF titration. All the compounds except dimethyl sulfone were resistant to changes in water content and thus are good choices for qNMR experiments. In contrast, dimethyl sulfone absorbed about 25 mass % of water over 5 weeks at 100% RH; such behavior could compromise qNMR experiments under certain conditions.

Atomic resolution protein structure determination by three-dimensional transferred echo double resonance solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy.

Project description:We show that quantitative internuclear (15)N-(13)C distances can be obtained in sufficient quantity to determine a complete, high-resolution structure of a moderately sized protein by magic-angle spinning solid-state NMR spectroscopy. The three-dimensional ZF-TEDOR pulse sequence is employed in combination with sparse labeling of (13)C sites in the beta1 domain of the immunoglobulin binding protein G (GB1), as obtained by bacterial expression with 1,3-(13)C or 2-(13)C-glycerol as the (13)C source. Quantitative dipolar trajectories are extracted from two-dimensional (15)N-(13)C planes, in which approximately 750 cross peaks are resolved. The experimental data are fit to exact theoretical trajectories for spin clusters (consisting of one (13)C and several (15)N each), yielding quantitative precision as good as 0.1 A for approximately 350 sites, better than 0.3 A for another 150, and approximately 1.0 A for 150 distances in the range of 5-8 A. Along with isotropic chemical shift-based (TALOS) dihedral angle restraints, the distance restraints are incorporated into simulated annealing calculations to yield a highly precise structure (backbone RMSD of 0.25+/-0.09 A), which also demonstrates excellent agreement with the most closely related crystal structure of GB1 (2QMT, bbRMSD 0.79+/-0.03 A). Moreover, side chain heavy atoms are well restrained (0.76+/-0.06 A total heavy atom RMSD). These results demonstrate for the first time that quantitative internuclear distances can be measured throughout an entire solid protein to yield an atomic-resolution structure.

Cellular solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy.

Project description:Decrypting the structure, function, and molecular interactions of complex molecular machines in their cellular context and at atomic resolution is of prime importance for understanding fundamental physiological processes. Nuclear magnetic resonance is a well-established imaging method that can visualize cellular entities at the micrometer scale and can be used to obtain 3D atomic structures under in vitro conditions. Here, we introduce a solid-state NMR approach that provides atomic level insights into cell-associated molecular components. By combining dedicated protein production and labeling schemes with tailored solid-state NMR pulse methods, we obtained structural information of a recombinant integral membrane protein and the major endogenous molecular components in a bacterial environment. Our approach permits studying entire cellular compartments as well as cell-associated proteins at the same time and at atomic resolution.

A Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) Platform for Real-Time Metabolic Monitoring of Bioprocesses.

Project description:We present a Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) compatible platform for the automated real-time monitoring of biochemical reactions using a flow shuttling configuration. This platform requires a working sample volume of ∼11 mL and it can circulate samples with a flow rate of 28 mL/min., which makes it suitable to be used for real-time monitoring of biochemical reactions. Another advantage of the proposed low-cost platform is the high spectral resolution. As a proof of concept, we acquire 1H NMR spectra of waste orange peel, bioprocessed using Trichoderma reesei fungus, and demonstrate the real-time measurement capability of the platform. The measurement is performed over more than 60 h, with a spectrum acquired every 7 min, such that over 510 data points are collected without user intervention. The designed system offers high resolution, automation, low user intervention, and, therefore, time-efficient measurement per sample.

Real-Time Interrogation of Aspirin Reactivity, Biochemistry, and Biodistribution by Hyperpolarized Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy.

Project description:Hyperpolarized magnetic resonance spectroscopy enables quantitative, non-radioactive, real-time measurement of imaging probe biodistribution and metabolism in vivo. Here, we investigate and report on the development and characterization of hyperpolarized acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin) and its use as a nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) probe. Aspirin derivatives were synthesized with single- and double-13 C labels and hyperpolarized by dynamic nuclear polarization with 4.7 % and 3 % polarization, respectively. The longitudinal relaxation constants (T1 ) for the labeled acetyl and carboxyl carbonyls were approximately 30 seconds, supporting in vivo imaging and spectroscopy applications. In vitro hydrolysis, transacetylation, and albumin binding of hyperpolarized aspirin were readily monitored in real time by 13 C-NMR spectroscopy. Hyperpolarized, double-labeled aspirin was well tolerated in mice and could be observed by both 13 C-MR imaging and 13 C-NMR spectroscopy in vivo.

Application of Odd-Order Derivatives in Fourier Transform Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy toward Quantitative Deconvolution.

Project description:When Fourier transform (FT) spectrum peaks are overlapped, primary maxima of odd-order derivatives can be used to evaluate their independent intensities. We studied the feasibility of higher odd-order derivatives on Lorentzian peak shape and magnitude peak shape. Simulation studies for FT nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy demonstrated good results toward quantitative deconvolution of overlapping FT spectrum peaks. Although it is not so desirable to deconvolute special line shapes such as Gaussian, Voigt, and Tsallis profiles, the odd-order derivatives exhibit a bright future compared to even-order derivatives. An application example of practical NMR spectroscopy with ethylbenzene isomers is presented. White Gaussian noises were added to the simulated spectra at two different signal-to-noise ratios (20 and 40). Kauppinen's denoising and smoothing algorithms can effectively remove interference of the noise and help to have good deconvoluting results using the odd-order derivatives. We compared features of our approach with popular deconvolution sharpening algorithms and conducted a comparison study with Kauppinen's Fourier self-deconvolution. Our approach has a better dynamic range of peak intensities and is not sensitive to the sampling rates. Other common deconvolution methods are also discussed briefly.
