Abstract
The heightened dipolar interactions in solids render solid-state NMR (ssNMR) spectra more difficult to interpret than solution NMR spectra. On the other hand, ssNMR does not suffer from severe molecular weight limitations like solution NMR. In recent years, ssNMR has undergone rapid technological developments that have enabled structure-function studies of increasingly larger biomolecules, including membrane proteins. Current methodology includes stable isotope labeling schemes, non-uniform sampling with spectral reconstruction, faster magic angle spinning, and innovative pulse sequences that capture different types of interactions among spins. However, computational tools for the analysis of complex ssNMR data from membrane proteins and other challenging protein systems have lagged behind those for solution NMR. Before a structure can be determined, thousands of signals from individual types of multidimensional ssNMR spectra of samples, which may have differing isotopic composition, must be recognized, correlated, categorized, and eventually assigned to atoms in the chemical structure. To address these tedious steps, we have developed an automated algorithm for ssNMR spectra called "ssPINE". The ssPINE software accepts the sequence of the protein plus peak lists from a variety of ssNMR experiments as inputs and offers automated backbone and side-chain assignments. The alpha version of ssPINE, which we describe here, is freely available through a web submission form.

Abstract
Ultrafast magic angle spinning (MAS) technology and 1H detection have dramatically enhanced the sensitivity of solid-state NMR (ssNMR) spectroscopy of biopolymers. We previously showed that, when combined with polarization optimized experiments (POE), these advancements enable the simultaneous acquisition of multi-dimensional 1H- or 13C-detected experiments using a single receiver. Here, we propose a new sub-class within the POE family, namely HC-DUMAS, HC-MEIOSIS, and HC-MAeSTOSO, that utilize dual receiver technology for the simultaneous detection of 1H and 13C nuclei. We also expand this approach to record 1H-, 13C-, and 15N-detected homonuclear 2D spectra simultaneously using three independent receivers. The combination of POE and multi-receiver technology will further shorten the total experimental time of ssNMR experiments for biological solids.

Abstract
Proton-detected solid-state NMR (ssNMR) spectroscopy has dramatically improved the sensitivity and resolution of fast magic angle spinning (MAS) methods. While relatively straightforward for fibers and crystalline samples, the routine application of these techniques to membrane protein samples is still challenging. This is due to the low sensitivity of these samples, which require high lipid:protein ratios to maintain the structural and functional integrity of membrane proteins. We previously introduced a family of novel polarization optimized experiments (POE) that enable to make the best of nuclear polarization and obtain multiple-acquisitions from a single pulse sequence and one receiver. Here, we present the 1H-detected versions of POE using ultrafast MAS ssNMR. Specifically, we implemented proton detection into our three main POE strategies, H-DUMAS, H-MEIOSIS, and H-MAeSTOSO, achieving the acquisition of up to ten different experiments using a single pulse sequence. We tested these experiments on a model compound N-Acetyl-Val-Leu dipeptide and applied to a six transmembrane acetate transporter, SatP, reconstituted in lipid membranes. These new methods will speed up the spectroscopy of challenging biomacromolecules such as membrane proteins.

Abstract
Magic angle spinning (MAS) solid-state NMR (ssNMR) spectroscopy is a major technique for the characterization of the structural dynamics of biopolymers at atomic resolution. However, the intrinsic low sensitivity of this technique poses significant limitations to its routine application in structural biology. Here we achieve substantial savings in experimental time using a new subclass of Polarization Optimized Experiments (POEs) that concatenate TEDOR and SPECIFIC-CP transfers into a single pulse sequence. Specifically, we designed new 2D and 3D experiments (2D TEDOR-NCX, 3D TEDOR-NCOCX, and 3D TEDOR-NCACX) to obtain distance measurements and heteronuclear chemical shift correlations for resonance assignments using only one experiment. We successfully tested these experiments on N-Acetyl-Val-Leu dipeptide, microcrystalline U-13C,15N ubiquitin, and single- and multi-span membrane proteins reconstituted in lipid membranes. These pulse sequences can be implemented on any ssNMR spectrometer equipped with standard solid-state hardware using only one receiver. Since these new POEs speed up data acquisition considerably, we anticipate their broad application to fibrillar, microcrystalline, and membrane-bound proteins.

Abstract
The practical aspects of some NMR experiments designed for the simultaneous acquisition of 2D COSY and 2D TOCSY spectra are presented and discussed. Several techniques involving afterglow-based, coherence transfer pathway (CTP)-based, and NMR by Ordered Acquisition using 1 H-detection (NOAH)-based strategies for the collection of different free-induction signal decays (FIDs) within the same scan are evaluated and compared. These methods offer a faster recording of these spectra in small-molecule NMR when sensitivity is not a limiting factor, with a reduction in spectrometer time about 45-60% when compared with the conventional sequential acquisition of the parent experiments. It is also shown how the optimized design of an extended three-FID approach yields one COSY and two TOCSY spectra simultaneously by combining CTP and NOAH principles in the same experiment, affording substantial sensitivity enhancements per time unit.

Abstract
Even 30 years after the discovery of magainins, biophysical and structural investigations on how these peptides interact with membranes can still bear surprises and add new interesting detail to how these peptides exert their antimicrobial action. Early on, using oriented solid-state NMR spectroscopy, it was found that the amphipathic helices formed by magainins are active when being oriented parallel to the membrane surface. More recent investigations indicate that this in-planar alignment is also found when PGLa and magainin in combination exert synergistic pore-forming activities, where studies on the mechanism of synergistic interaction are ongoing. In a related manner, the investigation of dimeric antimicrobial peptide sequences has become an interesting topic of research which bears promise to refine our views how antimicrobial action occurs. The molecular shape concept has been introduced to explain the effects of lipids and peptides on membrane morphology, locally and globally, and in particular of cationic amphipathic helices that partition into the membrane interface. This concept has been extended in this review to include more recent ideas on soft membranes that can adapt to external stimuli including membrane-disruptive molecules. In this manner, the lipids can change their shape in the presence of low peptide concentrations, thereby maintaining the bilayer properties. At higher peptide concentrations, phase transitions occur which lead to the formation of pores and membrane lytic processes. In the context of the molecular shape concept, the properties of lipopeptides, including surfactins, are shortly presented, and comparisons with the hydrophobic alamethicin sequence are made.

Abstract
NOAH (NMR byOrderedAcquisition using 1H-detection) type of pure shift NMR pulse scheme has been designed for the efficient utilization of magnetization that presents in a spin-system under consideration. The proposed strategy, PROSMASH-HSQC2 (PROtein-HSQC and SMAll molecule-HSQC Signals with Homodecoupling) uses the real-time BIRD pure shift NMR strategy and two HSQC spectra (13C-HSQC for small molecules and 15N-HSQC for 15N-isotopic labelled proteins) can be recorded in a single NMR experiment. Thus, this method permits precise determination of drug-protein interactions at atomic levels by monitoring the chemical shift perturbations, and will have potential applications in drug discovery programs.

Abstract
An experimental strategy has been developed to increase the efficiency of dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) in solid-state NMR studies. The method makes assignments simpler, faster, and more reliable via sequential correlations of both side-chain and Cα resonances. The approach is particularly suited to complex biomolecules and systems with significant chemical-shift degeneracy. It was designed to overcome the spectral congestion and line broadening that occur due to sample freezing at the cryogenic temperatures required for DNP. Nonuniform sampling (NUS) is incorporated to achieve time-efficient collection of multidimensional data. Additionally, fast (25 kHz) magic-angle spinning (MAS) provides optimal sensitivity and resolution. Data collected in <1 wk produced a virtually complete de novo assignment of the coat protein of Pf1 virus. The peak positions and linewidths for samples near 100 K are perturbed relative to those near 273 K. These temperature-induced perturbations are strongly correlated with hydration surfaces.

Abstract
AbstractIncreasing evidence suggests that most proteins occur and function in complexes rather than as isolated entities when embedded in cellular membranes. Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) provides increasing possibilities to study structure, dynamics and assembly of such systems. In our review, we discuss recent methodological progress to study membrane–protein complexes (MPCs) by NMR, starting with expression, isotope-labeling and reconstitution protocols. We review approaches to deal with spectral complexity and limited spectral spectroscopic sensitivity that are usually encountered in NMR-based studies of MPCs. We highlight NMR applications in various classes of MPCs, including G-protein-coupled receptors, ion channels and retinal proteins and extend our discussion to protein–protein complexes that span entire cellular compartments or orchestrate processes such as protein transport across or within membranes. These examples demonstrate the growing potential of NMR-based studies of MPCs to provide critical insight into the energetics of protein–ligand and protein–protein interactions that underlie essential biological functions in cellular membranes.

Abstract
Magic angle spinning solid-state NMR (MAS ssNMR) spectroscopy is a powerful method for structure determination of biomacromolecules that are recalcitrant to crystallization (membrane proteins and fibrils). Conventional multidimensional ssNMR methods acquire one experiment at a time. This approach is time consuming and discards orphan (unused) spin operators. Relatively low sensitivity and poor resolution of protein samples require long acquisition times for multidimensional ssNMR experiments. Here, we describe our recent progress in the development of multiple acquisition solid-state NMR methods for protein structure determination. A family of experiments called Polarization Optimized Experiments (POE) were designed, in which we utilized the orphan spin operators that are discarded in classical multidimensional NMR experiments, recovering them to allow simultaneous acquisition of multiple 2D and 3D experiments, all while using conventional probes with spectrometers equipped with one receiver. Three strategies namely, DUMAS, MEIOSIS, and MAeSTOSO were used for the concatenation of various 2D and 3D experiments. These methods open up new avenues for reducing the acquisition times of multidimensional experiments for biomolecular ssNMR spectroscopy.

Abstract
Conventional multidimensional magic angle spinning (MAS) solid-state NMR (ssNMR) experiments detect the signal arising from the decay of a single coherence transfer pathway (FID), resulting in one spectrum per acquisition time. Recently, we introduced two new strategies, namely DUMAS (DUal acquisition Magic Angle Spinning) and MEIOSIS (Multiple ExperIments via Orphan SpIn operatorS), that enable the simultaneous acquisitions of multidimensional ssNMR experiments using multiple coherence transfer pathways. Here, we combined the main elements of DUMAS and MEIOSIS to harness both orphan spin operators and residual polarization and increase the number of simultaneous acquisitions. We show that it is possible to acquire up to eight two-dimensional experiments using four acquisition periods per each scan. This new suite of pulse sequences, called MAeSTOSO for Multiple Acquisitions via Sequential Transfer of Orphan Spin pOlarization, relies on residual polarization of both (13)C and (15)N pathways and combines low- and high-sensitivity experiments into a single pulse sequence using one receiver and commercial ssNMR probes. The acquisition of multiple experiments does not affect the sensitivity of the main experiment; rather it recovers the lost coherences that are discarded, resulting in a significant gain in experimental time. Both merits and limitations of this approach are discussed.
