Stereospecific assignment of the NH2 resonances from the primary amides of asparagine and glutamine side chains in isotopically labeled proteins.

چکیده
An HMQC-based pulse scheme is presented for the stereospecific assignment of asparagineand glutamine side-chain amide protons. The approach makes use of the recently developedquantitative-J correlation spectroscopy [Bax, A. et al. (1994) Methods Enzymol., 239,79-105] to distinguish the E and Z primary amide protons and, as such, eliminates theneed for assignments derived from more time-consuming and potentially ambiguous NOEmethods. An application of this method to a uniformly 15N,13C-labeled cellulose-bindingdomain is presented. When used in combination with a NOESY-HSQC experiment, thepredominant chi2 dihedral angles of two asparagine side chains in this protein can also bedefined.

Simultaneous NMR assignment of backbone and side chain amides in large proteins with IS-TROSY.
A new strategy for the simultaneous NMR assignment of both backbone and side chain amides in large proteins with isotopomer-selective transverse-relaxation-optimized spectroscopy (IS-TROSY) is reported. The method considers aspects of both the NMR sample preparation and the experimental design. First, the protein is dissolved in a buffer with 50%H2O/50%D2O in order to promote the population of ...
متن کاملChanges of glutamine and asparagine content in cucumber seedlings in response to nitrate stress
Nitrogen fertilizer application rates in intensive agricultural systems have increased dramatically in recent years, especially in protected vegetable production systems. This excessive use of nitrogen fertilizer has resulted in soil secondary salinity, which has become a significant environmental stress for crops such as cucumber, in the protected farmlands. It is thus necessary to illuminate ...
متن کاملAmino Acid metabolism of pea leaves: labeling studies on utilization of amides.
Short term (2-hour) incorporation of nitrogen from nitrate, glutamine, or asparagine was studied by supplying them as unlabeled ((14)N) tracers to growing pea (Pisum sativum L.) leaves, which were previously labeled with (15)N, and then following the elimination of (15)N from various amino components of the tissue. Most components had active and inactive pools. Ammonia produced from nitrate was...
متن کاملAsparagine and glutamine rotamers: B-factor cutoff and correction of amide flips yield distinct clustering.
Previous rotamer libraries showed little significant clustering for asparagine chi2 or glutamine chi3 values, but none of those studies corrected amide orientations or omitted disordered side chains. The current survey used 240 proteins at /=0.4 A). All H atoms were added and optimized, and amide orientat...
متن کاملLxxxiv. the Hofmann Degradation of Glutamine Residues in Gliadin by Richard Laurence Millington Synge
THE question of the mode of linkage of the ammonia liberated in the hydrolysis of proteins was reviewed by Damodaran [1932] in his paper describing the isolation of asparagine from an enzymic digest of edestin. This work provided the first direct evidence for the long-standing hypothesis that the ammonia so liberated has its origin in the hydrolysis of glutamine and asparagine residues. Shortly...
