Kobayashi T, Nishiyama Y, Pandey MK. Determination of the mutual orientation between proton CSA tensors mediated through band-selective 1H- 1H recoupling under fast MAS. SOLID STATE NUCLEAR MAGNETIC RESONANCE 2023; 125:101874. [PMID: 37216831 DOI: 10.1016/j.ssnmr.2023.101874] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/28/2023] [Revised: 05/08/2023] [Accepted: 05/09/2023] [Indexed: 05/24/2023]
Abstract
The mutual orientation of nuclear spin interaction tensors provides critical information on the conformation and arrangement of molecules in chemicals, materials, and biological systems at an atomic level. Proton is a ubiquitous and important element in a variety of substances, and its NMR is highly sensitive due to their virtually 100% natural abundance and large gyromagnetic ratio. Nevertheless, the measurement of mutual orientation between the 1H CSA tensors has remained largely untouched in the past due to strong 1H-1H homonuclear interactions in a dense network of protons. In this study, we have developed a proton-detected 3D 1H CSA/1H CSA/1H CS correlation method that utilizes three techniques to manage homonuclear interactions, namely fast magic-angle spinning, windowless C-symmetry-based CSA recoupling (windowless-ROCSA), and a band-selective 1H-1H polarization transfer. The asymmetric 1H CSA/1H CSA correlated powder patterns produced by the C-symmetry-based methods are highly sensitive to the sign and asymmetry parameter of the 1H CSA, and the Euler angle β as compared to the symmetric pattern obtained by the existing γ-encoded R-symmetry-based CSA/CSA correlation methods and allows a larger spectral area for data fitting. These features are beneficial for determining the mutual orientation between the nuclear spin interaction tensors with improved accuracy.

Abstract
Solid-state NMR spectroscopy is one of the most commonly used techniques to study the atomic-resolution structure and dynamics of various chemical, biological, material, and pharmaceutical systems spanning multiple forms, including crystalline, liquid crystalline, fibrous, and amorphous states. Despite the unique advantages of solid-state NMR spectroscopy, its poor spectral resolution and sensitivity have severely limited the scope of this technique. Fortunately, the recent developments in probe technology that mechanically rotate the sample fast (100 kHz and above) to obtain "solution-like" NMR spectra of solids with higher resolution and sensitivity have opened numerous avenues for the development of novel NMR techniques and their applications to study a plethora of solids including globular and membrane-associated proteins, self-assembled protein aggregates such as amyloid fibers, RNA, viral assemblies, polymorphic pharmaceuticals, metal-organic framework, bone materials, and inorganic materials. While the ultrafast-MAS continues to be developed, the minute sample quantity and radio frequency requirements, shorter recycle delays enabling fast data acquisition, the feasibility of employing proton detection, enhancement in proton spectral resolution and polarization transfer efficiency, and high sensitivity per unit sample are some of the remarkable benefits of the ultrafast-MAS technology as demonstrated by the reported studies in the literature. Although the very low sample volume and very high RF power could be limitations for some of the systems, the advantages have spurred solid-state NMR investigation into increasingly complex biological and material systems. As ultrafast-MAS NMR techniques are increasingly used in multidisciplinary research areas, further development of instrumentation, probes, and advanced methods are pursued in parallel to overcome the limitations and challenges for widespread applications. This review article is focused on providing timely comprehensive coverage of the major developments on instrumentation, theory, techniques, applications, limitations, and future scope of ultrafast-MAS technology.

Abstract
Since the first pioneering studies on small deuterated peptides dating more than 20 years ago, 1H detection has evolved into the most efficient approach for investigation of biomolecular structure, dynamics, and interactions by solid-state NMR. The development of faster and faster magic-angle spinning (MAS) rates (up to 150 kHz today) at ultrahigh magnetic fields has triggered a real revolution in the field. This new spinning regime reduces the 1H-1H dipolar couplings, so that a direct detection of 1H signals, for long impossible without proton dilution, has become possible at high resolution. The switch from the traditional MAS NMR approaches with 13C and 15N detection to 1H boosts the signal by more than an order of magnitude, accelerating the site-specific analysis and opening the way to more complex immobilized biological systems of higher molecular weight and available in limited amounts. This paper reviews the concepts underlying this recent leap forward in sensitivity and resolution, presents a detailed description of the experimental aspects of acquisition of multidimensional correlation spectra with fast MAS, and summarizes the most successful strategies for the assignment of the resonances and for the elucidation of protein structure and conformational dynamics. It finally outlines the many examples where 1H-detected MAS NMR has contributed to the detailed characterization of a variety of crystalline and noncrystalline biomolecular targets involved in biological processes ranging from catalysis through drug binding, viral infectivity, amyloid fibril formation, to transport across lipid membranes.

Abstract
Solid‐state NMR (ssNMR) spectroscopy has emerged as the method of choice to analyze the structural dynamics of fibrillar, membrane‐bound, and crystalline proteins that are recalcitrant to other structural techniques. Recently, 1H detection under fast magic angle spinning and multiple acquisition ssNMR techniques have propelled the structural analysis of complex biomacromolecules. However, data acquisition and resonance‐specific assignments remain a bottleneck for this technique. Here, we present a comprehensive multi‐acquisition experiment (PHRONESIS) that simultaneously generates up to ten 3D 1H‐detected ssNMR spectra. PHRONESIS utilizes broadband transfer and selective pulses to drive multiple independent polarization pathways. High selectivity excitation and de‐excitation of specific resonances were achieved by high‐fidelity selective pulses that were designed using a combination of an evolutionary algorithm and artificial intelligence. We demonstrated the power of this approach with microcrystalline U‐13C,15N GB1 protein, reaching 100 % of the resonance assignments using one data set of ten 3D experiments. The strategy outlined in this work opens up new avenues for implementing novel 1H‐detected multi‐acquisition ssNMR experiments to speed up and expand the application to larger biomolecular systems.

Abstract
Solid-state NMR can afford the structural information about the chemical composition, local environment, and spatial coordination at the atomic level, which has been extensively applied to characterize the detailed structure and host-guest interactions in metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). In this review, recent advances for the structural characterizations of MOFs using versatile solid-state NMR techniques were briefly introduced. High-field sensitivity-enhanced solid-state NMR method enabled the direct observation of metal centers in MOFs containing low-γ nuclei. Two-dimensional (2D) homo- and hetero-nuclear correlation MAS NMR experiments provided the spatial proximity among linkers, metal clusters and the introduced guest molecules. Moreover, quantitative measurement of inter-nuclear distances using solid-state NMR provided valuable structural information about the connectivity geometry as well as the host-guest interactions within MOFs. Furthermore, solid-state NMR has exhibited great potential for unraveling the structure property of MOFs containing paramagnetic metal centers.

SOLID STATE NUCLEAR MAGNETIC RESONANCE 2022; 117:101774.

Abstract
Fast magic-angle spinning (≥60 kHz) technique has enabled the acquisition of high-resolution 1H NMR spectra of solid materials. However, the spectral interpretation is still difficult because the 1H peaks are overlapped due to the narrow chemical shift range and broad linewidths. An additional 13C or 14N or 1H dimension possibly addresses the issues of overlapped proton resonances, but it leads to the elongated experimental time. Herein, we introduce a single-channel 1H experiment to separate the overlapped 1H peak and identify its spatially proximal 1H-1H correlations. This sequence combines selective excitation, selective 1H-1H polarization transfer by selective recoupling of protons (SERP), and broadband 1H recoupling by back-to-back (BABA) recoupling sequences. The concept for 1H separation is based on (i) the selective excitation of a well-resolved 1H peak and (ii) the selective dipolar polarization transfer from this isolated 1H peak to one of the 1H peaks in the overlapped/poor resolution region by SERP and (iii) the detection of 1H-1H correlations from these two 1H peaks to other neighboring 1Hs by BABA. We demonstrated the applicability of this approach to identify overlapped peaks on two molecules, β-L-aspartyl-l-alanine and Pioglitazone.HCl. The sequence allows the clear observation of 1H-1H correlations from an overlapped 1H peak without an additional heteronuclear dimension and ensures efficient polarization transfers that leads to twelve fold reduction in experimental time compared to 14N edited experiments. The limitation and the conditions of applicability for this approach are discussed in detail.

Abstract
Solid-state NMR spectroscopy is a powerful technique to study insoluble and non-crystalline proteins and protein complexes at atomic resolution. The development of proton (1H) detection at fast magic-angle spinning (MAS) has considerably increased the analytical capabilities of the technique, enabling the acquisition of 1H-detected fingerprint experiments in few hours. Here an approach based on double-quantum (DQ) 13C spectroscopy, detected on 1H, is proposed for fast MAS regime (> 60 kHz) to perform the sequential assignment of insoluble proteins of small size, without any specific deuteration requirement. By combining two three-dimensional 1H detected experiments correlating a 13C DQ dimension respectively to its intra-residue and sequential 15 N-1H pairs, a sequential walk through DQ (Ca + CO) resonance is obtained. The approach takes advantage of fast MAS to achieve an efficient sensitivity and the addition of a DQ dimension provides spectral features useful for the resonance assignment process.

Abstract
Infectious proteins or prions are a remarkable class of pathogens, where pathogenicity and infectious state correspond to conformational transition of a protein fold. The conformational change translates into the formation by the protein of insoluble amyloid aggregates, associated in humans with various neurodegenerative disorders and systemic protein-deposition diseases. The prion principle, however, is not limited to pathogenicity. While pathological amyloids (and prions) emerge from protein misfolding, a class of functional amyloids has been defined, consisting of amyloid-forming domains under natural selection and with diverse biological roles. Although of great importance, prion amyloid structures remain challenging for conventional structural biology techniques. Solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (SSNMR) has been preferentially used to investigate these insoluble, morphologically heterogeneous aggregates with poor crystallinity. SSNMR methods have yielded a wealth of knowledge regarding the fundamentals of prion biology and have helped to solve the structures of several prion and prion-like fibrils. Here, we will review pathological and functional amyloid structures and will discuss some of the obtained structural models. We will finish the review with a perspective on integrative approaches combining solid-state NMR, electron paramagnetic resonance and cryo-electron microscopy, which can complement and extend our toolkit to structurally explore various facets of prion biology.

Abstract
Constant-time (CT) dipolar heteronuclear multiple quantum coherence (D-HMQC) has previously been demonstrated as a method for proton detection of high-resolution wideline NMR spectra of spin-1/2 nuclei with large chemical shift anisotropy (CSA). However, 1H transverse relaxation and t1-noise often reduce the sensitivity of D-HMQC experiments, preventing the theoretical gains in sensitivity provided by 1H detection from being realized. Here we demonstrate a series of improved pulse sequences for 1H detection of spin-1/2 nuclei under fast MAS, with 195Pt SSNMR experiments on cisplatin as an example. First, a t1-incrementation protocol for D-HMQC dubbed Arbitrary Indirect Dwell (AID) is demonstrated. AID allows the use of arbitrary, rotor asynchronous t1-increments, but removes the constant time period from CT D-HMQC, resulting in improved sensitivity by reducing transverse relaxation losses. Next, we show that short high-power adiabatic pulses (SHAPs), which efficiently invert broad MAS sideband manifolds, can be effectively incorporated into 1H detected symmetry-based resonance echo double resonance (S-REDOR) and t1-noise eliminated (TONE) D-HMQC experiments. The S-REDOR experiments with SHAPs provide approximately double the dipolar dephasing, as compared to experiments with rectangular inversion pulses. We lastly show that sensitivity and resolution can be further enhanced with the use of swept excitation pulses as well as adiabatic magic angle turning (aMAT).

Abstract
Microporous materials have attracted a rapid growth of research interest in materials science and the multidisciplinary area because of their wide applications in catalysis, separation, ion exchange, gas storage, drug release, and sensing. A fundamental understanding of their diverse structures and properties is crucial for rational design of high-performance materials and technological applications in industry. Solid-state NMR (SSNMR), capable of providing atomic-level information on both structure and dynamics, is a powerful tool in the scientific exploration of solid materials. Here, advanced SSNMR instruments and methods for characterization of microporous materials are briefly described. The recent progress of the application of SSNMR for the investigation of microporous materials including zeolites, metal-organic frameworks, covalent organic frameworks, porous aromatic frameworks, and layered materials is discussed with representative work. The versatile SSNMR techniques provide detailed information on the local structure, dynamics, and chemical processes in the confined space of porous materials. The challenges and prospects in SSNMR study of microporous and related materials are discussed.

Abstract
We present a class of pulsed third-spin-assisted recoupling (P-TSAR) magic-angle-spinning solid-state NMR techniques that achieve efficient polarization transfer over long distances to provide important restraints for structure determination. These experiments utilize second-order cross terms between strong 1H-13C and 1H-15N dipolar couplings to achieve 13C-13C and 15N-13C polarization transfer, similar to the principle of continuous-wave (CW) TSAR experiments. However, in contrast to the CW-TSAR experiments, these P-TSAR experiments require much less radiofrequency (rf) energy and allow a much simpler routine for optimizing the rf field strength. We call the technique PULSAR (pulsed proton-assisted recoupling) for homonuclear spin pairs. For heteronuclear spin pairs, we improve the recently introduced PERSPIRATIONCP (proton-enhanced rotor-echo short pulse irradiation cross-polarization) experiment by shifting the pulse positions and removing the z-filters, which significantly broaden the bandwidth and increase the efficiency of polarization transfer. We demonstrate the PULSAR and PERSPIRATIONCP techniques on the model protein GB1 and found cross peaks for distances as long as 10 and 8 Å for 13C-13C and 15N-13C spin pairs, respectively. We then apply these methods to the amyloid fibrils formed by the peptide hormone glucagon and show that long-range correlation peaks are readily observed to constrain intermolecular packing in this cross-β fibril. We provide an analytical model for the PULSAR and PERSPIRATIONCP experiments to explain the measured and simulated chemical shift dependence and pulse flip angle dependence of polarization transfer. These two techniques are useful for measuring long-range distance restraints to determine the three-dimensional structures of proteins and other biological macromolecules.

Abstract
This review describes two rotating-frame (R1ρ) relaxation dispersion methods, namely the Bloch-McConnell Relaxation Dispersion and the Near-rotary Resonance Relaxation Dispersion, which enable the study of microsecond time-scale conformational fluctuations in the solid state using magic-angle-spinning nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. The goal is to provide the reader with key ideas, experimental descriptions, and practical considerations associated with R1ρ measurements that are needed for analyzing relaxation dispersion and quantifying conformational exchange. While the focus is on protein motion, many presented concepts can be equally well adapted to study the microsecond time-scale dynamics of other bio- (e.g. lipids, polysaccharides, nucleic acids), organic (e.g. pharmaceutical compounds), or inorganic molecules (e.g., metal organic frameworks). This article summarizes the essential contributions made by recent theoretical and experimental solid-state NMR studies to our understanding of protein motion. Here we discuss recent advances in fast MAS applications that enable the observation and atomic level characterization of sparsely populated conformational states which are otherwise inaccessible for other experimental methods. Such high-energy states are often associated with protein functions such as molecular recognition, ligand binding, or enzymatic catalysis, as well as with disease-related properties such as misfolding and amyloid formation.

Abstract
Fast magic angle spinning (MAS) and indirect detection by high gyromagnetic ratio (γ) nuclei such as proton or fluorine are increasingly utilized to obtain 2D heteronuclear correlation (HETCOR) solid-state NMR spectra of spin-1/2 nuclei by using cross polarization (CP) for coherence transfer. However, one major drawback of CP HETCOR pulse sequences is that 1H spin diffusion during the back X→1H CP transfer step may result in relayed correlations. This problem is particularly pronounced for the indirect detection of very low-γ nuclei such as 89Y, 103Rh, 109Ag and 183W where long contact times on the order of 10-30 ms are necessary for optimal CP transfer. Here we propose two methods that eliminate relayed correlations and allow more reliable distance information to be obtained from 2D HETCOR NMR spectra. The first method uses Lee-Goldburg (LG) CP during the X→1H back-transfer step to suppress 1H spin diffusion. We determine LG conditions compatible with fast MAS frequencies (νrot) of 40-95 kHz and show that 1H spin diffusion can be efficiently suppressed at low effective radiofrequency (RF) fields (ν1,eff ≪ 0.5νrot) and also at high effective RF fields (ν1,eff ≫ 2νrot). We describe modified Hartmann-Hahn LG-CP match conditions compatible with fast MAS and suitable for indirect detection of moderate-γ nuclei such as 13C, and low-γ nuclei such as 89Y. The second method uses D-RINEPT (dipolar refocused insensitive nuclei enhanced by polarization transfer) during the X→1H back-transfer step of the HETCOR pulse sequence. The effectiveness of these methods for acquiring HETCOR spectra with reduced relayed signal intensities is demonstrated with 1H{13C} HETCOR NMR experiments on l-histidine⋅HCl⋅H2O and 1H{89Y} HETCOR NMR experiments on an organometallic yttrium complex.

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
In the cellular environment, biomolecules assemble in large complexes which can act as molecular machines. Determining the structure of intact assemblies can reveal conformations and inter-molecular interactions that are only present in the context of the full assembly. Solid-state NMR (ssNMR) spectroscopy is a technique suitable for the study of samples with high molecular weight that allows the atomic structure determination of such large protein assemblies under nearly physiological conditions. This review provides a practical guide for the first steps of studying biological supra-molecular assemblies using ssNMR. The production of isotope-labeled samples is achievable via several means, which include recombinant expression, cell-free protein synthesis, extraction of assemblies directly from cells, or even the study of assemblies in whole cells in situ. Specialized isotope labeling schemes greatly facilitate the assignment of chemical shifts and the collection of structural data. Advanced strategies such as mixed, diluted, or segmental subunit labeling offer the possibility to study inter-molecular interfaces. Detailed and practical considerations are presented with respect to first setting up magic-angle spinning (MAS) ssNMR experiments, including the selection of the ssNMR rotor, different methods to best transfer the sample and prepare the rotor, as well as common and robust procedures for the calibration of the instrument. Diagnostic spectra to evaluate the resolution and sensitivity of the sample are presented. Possible improvements that can reduce sample heterogeneity and improve the quality of ssNMR spectra are reviewed.

Abstract
Fast magic-angle spinning, coupled with 1H detection is a powerful method to improve spectral resolution and signal to noise in solid-state NMR spectra. Commercial probes now provide spinning frequencies in excess of 100 kHz. Then, one has sufficient resolution in the 1H dimension to directly detect protons, which have a gyromagnetic ratio approximately four times larger than 13C spins. However, the gains in sensitivity can quickly be lost if the rotation angle is not set precisely. The most common method of magic-angle calibration is to optimize the number of rotary echoes, or sideband intensity, observed on a sample of KBr. However, this typically uses relatively low spinning frequencies, where the spinning of fast-MAS probes is often unstable, and detection on the 13C channel, for which fast-MAS probes are typically not optimized. Therefore, we compare the KBr-based optimization of the magic angle with two alternative approaches: optimization of the splitting observed in 13C-labeled glycine-ethylester on the carbonyl due to the Cα-C' J-coupling, or optimization of the H-N J-coupling spin echo in the protein sample itself. The latter method has the particular advantage that no separate sample is necessary for the magic-angle optimization.

Abstract
Recent developments in magic angle spinning (MAS) technology permit spinning frequencies of ≥100 kHz. We examine the effect of such fast MAS rates upon nuclear magnetic resonance proton line widths in the multi-spin system of β-Asp-Ala crystal. We perform powder pattern simulations employing Fokker-Plank approach with periodic boundary conditions and 1H-chemical shift tensors calculated using the bond polarization theory. The theoretical predictions mirror well the experimental results. Both approaches demonstrate that homogeneous broadening has a linear-quadratic dependency on the inverse of the MAS spinning frequency and that, at the faster end of the spinning frequencies, the residual spectral line broadening becomes dominated by chemical shift distributions and susceptibility effects even for crystalline systems.

Abstract
A new solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) thermometry sample is proposed. The 207Pb NMR chemical shift of a lead halide perovskite, methylammonium lead chloride (MAPbCl3) is very sensitive to temperature, 0.905±0.010ppmK-1. The response to temperature is linear over a wide temperature range, from its tetragonal to cubic phase transition at 178K to >410K, making it an ideal standard for temperature calibrations in this range. Because the 207Pb NMR lineshape for MAPbCl3 appears symmetric, the sample is ideal for calibration of variable temperature NMR data acquired for spinning or non-spinning samples. A frequency-ratio method is proposed for referencing 207Pb chemical shifts, based on the 1H and 13C frequencies of the methylammonium cation, which are used asan internal standard. Finally, this new NMR thermometer has been used to measure the degree of frictional heating asa function of spinning frequency for a series of MAS rotors ranging in outer diameter from 1.3 to 7.0mm. As expected, the largest diameter rotors are more susceptible to frictional heating, but lower diameter rotors are subjected to higher frictional heating temperatures as they are typically spun at much higher spinning frequencies.

Abstract
A number of recent advances in the field of magic-angle-spinning (MAS) solid-state NMR have enabled its application to a range of biological systems of ever increasing complexity. To retain biological relevance, these samples are increasingly studied in a hydrated state. At the same time, experimental feasibility requires the sample preparation process to attain a high sample concentration within the final MAS rotor. We discuss these considerations, and how they have led to a number of different approaches to MAS NMR sample preparation. We describe our experience of how custom-made (or commercially available) ultracentrifugal devices can facilitate a simple, fast and reliable sample preparation process. A number of groups have since adopted such tools, in some cases to prepare samples for sedimentation-style MAS NMR experiments. Here we argue for a more widespread adoption of their use for routine MAS NMR sample preparation.

Abstract
Fast magic-angle spinning (>60 kHz) has many advantages but makes spin-diffusion-type proton-proton long-range polarization transfer inefficient and highly dependent on chemical-shift offset. Using 100%-HN-[2H,13C,15N]-ubiquitin as a model substance, we quantify the influence of the chemical-shift difference on the spin diffusion between proton spins and compare two experiments which lead to an improved chemical-shift compensation of the transfer: rotating-frame spin diffusion and a new experiment, reverse amplitude-modulated MIRROR. Both approaches enable broadband spin diffusion, but the application of the first variant is limited due to fast spin relaxation in the rotating frame. The reverse MIRROR experiment, in contrast, is a promising candidate for the determination of structurally relevant distance restraints. The applied tailored rf-irradiation schemes allow full control over the range of recoupled chemical shifts and efficiently drive spin diffusion. Here, the relevant relaxation time is the larger longitudinal relaxation time, which leads to a higher signal-to-noise ratio in the spectra.

Nishiyama Y. Fast magic-angle sample spinning solid-state NMR at 60-100kHz for natural abundance samples. SOLID STATE NUCLEAR MAGNETIC RESONANCE 2016; 78:24-36. [PMID: 27400153 DOI: 10.1016/j.ssnmr.2016.06.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 58] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/05/2016] [Revised: 06/07/2016] [Accepted: 06/08/2016] [Indexed: 06/06/2023]
Abstract
In spite of tremendous progress made in pulse sequence designs and sophisticated hardware developments, methods to improve sensitivity and resolution in solid-state NMR (ssNMR) are still emerging. The rate at which sample is spun at magic angle determines the extent to which sensitivity and resolution of NMR spectra are improved. To this end, the prime objective of this article is to give a comprehensive theoretical and experimental framework of fast magic angle spinning (MAS) technique. The engineering design of fast MAS rotors based on spinning rate, sample volume, and sensitivity is presented in detail. Besides, the benefits of fast MAS citing the recent progress in methodology, especially for natural abundance samples are also highlighted. The effect of the MAS rate on (1)H resolution, which is a key to the success of the (1)H inverse detection methods, is described by a simple mathematical factor named as the homogeneity factor k. A comparison between various (1)H inverse detection methods is also presented. Moreover, methods to reduce the number of spinning sidebands (SSBs) for the systems with huge anisotropies in combination with (1)H inverse detection at fast MAS are discussed.

Abstract
Proton-detection in solid-state NMR, enabled by high magnetic fields (>18 T) and fast magic angle spinning (>50 kHz), allows for the acquisition of traditional (1)H-(15)N experiments on systems that are too big to be observed in solution. Among those, proteins entrapped in a bioinspired silica matrix are an attractive target that is receiving a large share of attention. We demonstrate that (1)H-detected SSNMR provides a novel approach to the rapid assessment of structural integrity in proteins entrapped in bioinspired silica.

Abstract
Cross-Polarization with Variable Contact-time (CP-VC) is very efficient at ultra-fast MAS (νR ≥ 60 kHz) to measure accurately the dipolar interactions corresponding to C-H or N-H short distances, which are very useful for resonance assignment and for analysis of dynamics. Here, we demonstrate the CP-VC experiment with (1)H detection. In the case of C-H distances, we compare the CP-VC signals with direct ((13)C) and indirect ((1)H) detection and find that the latter allows a S/N gain of ca. 2.5, which means a gain of ca. 6 in experimental time. The main powerful characteristics of CP-VC methods are related to the ultra-fast spinning speed and to the fact that most of the time only the value of the dipolar peak separation has to be used to obtain the information. As a result, CP-VC methods are: (i) easy to set up and to use, and robust with respect to (ii) rf-inhomogeneity thus allowing the use of full rotor samples, (iii) rf mismatch, and (iv) offsets and chemical shift anisotropies. It must be noted that the CP-VC 2D method with indirect (1)H detection requires the proton resolution and is thus mainly applicable to small or perdeuterated molecules. We also show that an analysis of the dynamics can even be performed, with a reasonable experimental time, on unlabeled samples with (13)C or even (15)N natural abundance.

Abstract
We provide an experimental, numerical, and high-order average Hamiltonian evaluation of an open-ended series of homonuclear dipolar recoupling sequences, SR [Formula: see text] with p=1,2,3,…. While operating at a very low radio-frequency (rf) power, corresponding to a nutation frequency of 1/2 of the magic-angle spinning (MAS) rate (ωnut=ωr/2), these recursively generated double-quantum (2Q) dipolar recoupling schemes offer a progressively improved compensation to resonance offsets and rf inhomogeneity for increasing pulse-sequence order p. The excellent recoupling robustness to these experimental obstacles, as well as to CSA, is demonstrated for 2Q filtering (2QF) experiments and for driving magnetization transfers in 2D NMR correlation spectroscopy, where the sequences may provide either double or zero quantum dipolar Hamiltonians during mixing. Experimental and numerical demonstrations, which mostly target conditions of "ultra-fast" MAS (≳50kHz) and high magnetic fields, are provided for recoupling of (13)C across a wide range of isotropic and anisotropic chemical shifts, as well as dipolar coupling constants, encompassing [2,3-(13)C2]alanine, [1,3-(13)C2]alanine, diammonium [1,4-(13)C2]fumarate, and [U-(13)C]tyrosine. When compared at equal power levels, a superior performance is observed for the SR [Formula: see text] sequences with p⩾3 relative to existing and well-established 2Q recoupling techniques. At ultra-fast MAS, proton decoupling is redundant during the homonuclear dipolar recoupling of dilute spins in organic solids, which renders the family of SR [Formula: see text] schemes the first efficient 2Q recoupling option for general applications, such as 2Q-1Q correlation NMR and high-order multiple-quantum excitation, under truly low-power rf conditions.

Abstract
In this contribution, we have demonstrated a proton detection-based approach on a natural abundant powdered l-Histidine HCl-H2O sample at ultrafast magic angle spinning (MAS) to accomplish (14)N/(14)N correlation from a 3D (14)N/(14)N/(1)H isotropic shift correlation experiment mediated through (1)H finite-pulse radio frequency-driven recoupling (fp-RFDR). Herein the heteronuclear magnetization transfer between (14)N and (1)H has been achieved by HMQC experiment, whereas (14)N/(14)N correlation is attained through enhanced (1)H-(1)H spin diffusion process due to (1)H-(1)H dipolar recoupling during the RFDR mixing. While the use of ultrafast MAS (90kHz) provides sensitivity enhancement through increased (1)H transverse relaxation time (T2), the use of micro-coil probe which can withstand strong (14)N radio frequency (RF) fields further improves the sensitivity per unit sample volume.

Abstract
Solid-state NMR is a versatile tool to study structure and dynamics of insoluble and non-crystalline biopolymers. Supramolecular protein assemblies are formed by self-association of multiple copies of single small-sized proteins. Because of their high degree of local order, solid-state NMR spectra of such systems exhibit an unusually high level of resolution, rendering them an ideal target for solid-state NMR investigations. Recently, our group has solved the structure of one particular supramolecular assembly, the type-iii-secretion-system needle. The needle subunit comprises around 80 residues. Many interesting supramolecular assemblies with unknown structure have subunits larger in size, which requires development of tailored solid-state NMR strategies to address their structures. In this "Perspective" article, we provide a view on different approaches to enhance sensitivity and resolution in biological solid-state NMR with a focus on the possible application to supramolecular assemblies with large subunit sizes.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (1)H{(13)C} heteronuclear correlation solid-state NMR spectra of naturally abundant solid materials are presented, acquired using the 0.75-mm magic angle spinning (MAS) probe at spinning rates up to 100 kHz. In spite of the miniscule sample volume (290 nL), high-quality HSQC-type spectra of bulk samples as well as surface-bound molecules can be obtained within hours of experimental time. The experiments are compared with those carried out at 40 kHz MAS using a 1.6-mm probe, which offered higher overall sensitivity due to a larger rotor volume. The benefits of ultrafast MAS in such experiments include superior resolution in (1)H dimension without resorting to (1)H-(1)H homonuclear RF decoupling, easy optimization, and applicability to mass-limited samples. The HMQC spectra of surface-bound species can be also acquired under 100 kHz MAS, although the dephasing of transverse magnetization has significant effect on the efficiency transfer under MAS alone.

Abstract
We show that Cross-Polarization with Variable Contact-time (CP-VC) allows an accurate determination of C-H dipolar interactions, which permits an easy detailed analysis of bond lengths and local dynamics, e.g. in biomolecules. The method presents a large dipolar scaling factor of 1/√2, leading to a better determination of dipolar interactions, especially for long C-H distances, and it allows the observation of very small local details such as those related either to CH(2) three spin systems, or even to hydrogen bonds. CP-VC is very simple to set up and very robust with respect to most experimental parameters, such as: rf-offsets, chemical-shift anisotropies, imperfect Hartmann-Hahn setting, and rf-inhomogeneity. The only required condition is the use of a sufficiently fast MAS spinning speed of at least ca. 60 kHz.

Abstract
Here we present an isotopic labeling strategy to easily obtain unambiguous long-range distance restraints in protein solid-state NMR studies. The method is based on the inclusion of two biosynthetic precursors in the bacterial growth medium, α-ketoisovalerate and α-ketobutyrate, leading to the production of leucine, valine and isoleucine residues that are exclusively (13)C labeled on methyl groups. The resulting spectral simplification facilitates the collection of distance restraints, the verification of carbon chemical shift assignments and the measurement of methyl group dynamics. This approach is demonstrated on the type-three secretion system needle of Shigella flexneri, where 49 methyl-methyl and methyl-nitrogen distance restraints including 10 unambiguous long-range distance restraints could be collected. By combining this labeling scheme with ultra-fast MAS and proton detection, the assignment of methyl proton chemical shifts was achieved.

Abstract
A composed Gaussian local field is proposed to describe the effect of molecular motions on NMR signals of SIn units (e.g., CHn or NHn), based upon the well-know Anderson-Weiss (AW) approximation. The approach is exemplified on constant-time recoupled dipolar chemical-shift correlation (tC-recDIPSHIFT) experiments, providing an analytical formula that can be used as a fitting function in studies of intermediate-regime motions. By comparison of analytical tC-recDIPSHIFT curves and dynamic spin dynamics simulations, we show that for heteronuclear spin pairs (SI system), the AW treatment assuming the usual Gaussian local field is accurate. However, the approximation fails for the case of SIn spin systems for motional rates higher than a few kHz. Based on earlier work of Terao et al., who proposed a decomposition of CHn dipolar powder patterns into to 2(n) spin-pair-type patterns, we propose an AW approach based upon a double-Gaussian local field. We derive an analytical formula for tC-recDIPSHIFT signals, and demonstrate its accuracy by comparison with simulations of several motional geometries and rates, and with experimental results for a model sample. The approach is not limited to the tC-recDIPSHIFT experiment and should be of general use in dipolar-coupling based experiments probing (partially) mobile SIn molecular moieties.

Abstract
We report acquisition of diagonal-compensated protein structural restraints from four-dimensional solid-state NMR spectra on extensively deuterated and (1)H back-exchanged proteins. To achieve this, we use homonuclear (1)H-(1)H correlations with diagonal suppression and nonuniform sampling (NUS). Suppression of the diagonal allows the accurate identification of cross-peaks which are otherwise obscured by the strong autocorrelation or whose intensity is biased due to partial overlap with the diagonal. The approach results in unambiguous spectral interpretation and relatively few but reliable restraints for structure calculation. In addition, the diagonal suppression produces a spectrum with low dynamic range for which ultrasparse NUS data sets can be readily reconstructed, allowing straightforward application of NUS with only 2% sampling density with the advantage of more heavily sampling time-domain regions of high signal intensity. The method is demonstrated here for two proteins, α-spectrin SH3 microcrystals and hydrophobin functional amyloids. For the case of SH3, suppression of the diagonal results in facilitated identification of unambiguous restraints and improvement of the quality of the calculated structural ensemble compared to nondiagonal-suppressed 4D spectra. For the only partly assigned hydrophobin rodlets, the structure is yet unknown. Applied to this protein of biological significance with large inhomogeneous broadening, the method allows identification of unambiguous crosspeaks that are otherwise obscured by the diagonal.

Abstract
Proton-detected solid-state NMR was applied to a highly deuterated insoluble, non-crystalline biological assembly, the Salmonella typhimurium type iii secretion system (T3SS) needle. Spectra of very high resolution and sensitivity were obtained at a low protonation level of 10-20% at exchangeable amide positions. We developed efficient experimental protocols for resonance assignment tailored for this system and the employed experimental conditions. Using exclusively dipolar-based interspin magnetization transfers, we recorded two sets of 3D spectra allowing for an almost complete backbone resonance assignment of the needle subunit PrgI. The additional information provided by the well-resolved proton dimension revealed the presence of two sets of resonances in the N-terminal helix of PrgI, while in previous studies employing (13)C detection only a single set of resonances was observed.

Abstract
We have recently presented band-selective homonuclear cross-polarization (BSH-CP) as an efficient method for CO-CA transfer in deuterated as well as protonated solid proteins. Here we show how the BSH-CP CO-CA transfer block can be incorporated in a set of three-dimensional (3D) solid-state NMR (ssNMR) pulse schemes tailored for resonance assignment of proteins at high static magnetic fields and moderate magic-angle spinning rates. Due to the achieved excellent transfer efficiency of 33 % for BSH-CP, a complete set of 3D spectra needed for unambiguous resonance assignment could be rapidly recorded within 1 week for the model protein ubiquitin. Thus we expect that BSH-CP could replace the typically used CO-CA transfer schemes in well-established 3D ssNMR approaches for resonance assignment of solid biomolecules.

Abstract
The low sensitivity inherent to both the static and magic angle spinning techniques of solid-state NMR (ssNMR) spectroscopy has thus far limited the routine application of multidimensional experiments to determine the structure of membrane proteins in lipid bilayers. Here, we demonstrate the advantage of using a recently developed class of experiments, polarization optimized experiments, for both static and MAS spectroscopy to achieve higher sensitivity and substantial time-savings for 2D and 3D experiments. We used sarcolipin, a single pass membrane protein, reconstituted in oriented bicelles (for oriented ssNMR) and multilamellar vesicles (for MAS ssNMR) as a benchmark. The restraints derived by these experiments are then combined into a hybrid energy function to allow simultaneous determination of structure and topology. The resulting structural ensemble converged to a helical conformation with a backbone RMSD ~0.44 Å, a tilt angle of 24° ± 1°, and an azimuthal angle of 55° ± 6°. This work represents a crucial first step toward obtaining high-resolution structures of large membrane proteins using combined multidimensional oriented solid-state NMR and magic angle spinning solid-state NMR.

Abstract
We demonstrate that a very simple experiment, Cross-Polarization with Variable Contact-time (CP-VC), is very efficient at ultra-fast MAS (νR ≥ 60 kHz) to measure accurately the C-H and N-H distances, and to analyze the dynamics of bio-molecules. This experiment can be performed with samples that are either (13)C or (15)N labeled or without any labeling. The method is very robust experimentally with respect to imperfect Hartman-Hahn setting, and presents a large scaling factor allowing a better dipolar determination, especially for long C-H or N-H distances, or for CH3 or NH3 moieties with three-site hopping. At ultra-fast MAS, it can be used quantitatively in a 2D way, because its scaling factor is then little dependent on the offsets. This robustness with respect to offset is related to the ultra-fast spinning speed, and hence to the related small rotor diameter. Indeed, these two specifications lead to efficient n = ±1 zero-quantum Hartman-Hahn CP-transfers with large RF-fields on proton and carbon or nitrogen channels, and large dipolar scaling factor.

Abstract
We present here (1)H-detected triple-resonance H/N/C experiments that incorporate CO-CA and CA-CB out-and-back scalar-transfer blocks optimized for robust resonance assignment in biosolids under ultra-fast magic-angle spinning (MAS). The first experiment, (H)(CO)CA(CO)NH, yields (1)H-detected inter-residue correlations, in which we record the chemical shifts of the CA spins in the first indirect dimension while during the scalar-transfer delays the coherences are present only on the longer-lived CO spins. The second experiment, (H)(CA)CB(CA)NH, correlates the side-chain CB chemical shifts with the NH of the same residue. These high sensitivity experiments are demonstrated on both fully-protonated and 100%-H(N) back-protonated perdeuterated microcrystalline samples of Acinetobacter phage 205 (AP205) capsids at 60 kHz MAS.

Abstract
Robust and efficient band-selective magnetization transfer between CO and CA spins can be achieved in highly deuterated solid proteins by dipolar-based homonuclear cross polarization. The approach is designed for moderate magic-angle spinning rates and high external magnetic fields where the isotropic chemical shift difference of CO and CA considerably exceeds the spinning rate. The most efficient recoupling is achieved when the sum of effective radio-frequency fields on CO and CA resonances equals two times the spinning rate. This method can be directly implemented in proton-detected versions of inter-residual correlation experiments as needed for resonance assignment in protein solid-state NMR spectroscopy.

Abstract
We demonstrate that inter-residue (13)C-(13)C proximities (of about 380 pm) in uniformly (13)C-labeled proteins can be probed by applying robust first-order recoupling during several milliseconds in single-quantum single-quantum dipolar homo-nuclear correlation (SQ-SQ D-HOMCOR) 2D experiments. We show that the intensity of medium-range homo-nuclear correlations in these experiments is enhanced using broadband first-order finite-pulse radio-frequency-driven recoupling (fp-RFDR) NMR sequence with a nested (XY8)4(1) super-cycling. The robustness and the efficiency of the fp-RFDR-(XY8)4(1) method is demonstrated at high magnetic field (21.1T) and high Magic-Angle Spinning (MAS) speeds (up to 60 kHz). The introduced super-cycling, formed by combining phase inversion and a global four-quantum phase cycle, improves the robustness of fp-RFDR to (i) chemical shift anisotropy (CSA), (ii) spread in isotropic chemical shifts, (iii) rf-inhomogeneity and (iv) hetero-nuclear dipolar couplings for long recoupling times. We show that fp-RFDR-(XY8)4(1) is efficient sans (1)H decoupling, which is beneficial for temperature-sensitive biomolecules. The efficiency and the robustness of fp-RFDR-(XY8)4(1) is investigated by spin dynamics numerical simulations as well as solid-state NMR experiments on [U-(13)C]-L-histidine·HCl, a tetra-peptide (Fmoc-[U-(13)C,(15)N]-Val-[U-(13)C,(15)N]-Ala-[U-(13)C,(15)N]-Phe-Gly-t-Boc) and Al(PO(3))(3).

Abstract
Abstract
14N–1H heteronuclear multiple-quantum correlation (HMQC) solid-state magic-angle spinning (MAS) NMR spectra recorded at a 1H Larmor frequency of 850 MHz are presented for the dipeptide β-AspAla. A modified version of the pulse sequence presented by Gan et al. (Chem. Phys. Lett. 435 (2007) 163) that utilises rotary resonance recoupling (R3) at the n = 2 condition (ν
1 = 2ν
R
) is employed. Spectra recorded with a short recoupling period (under 200 μs) show two correlation peaks corresponding to the NH and NH3 moieties in the dipeptide. The quadrupolar product, P
Q = C
Q √ [1 + (η
Q
2/3)], is determined experimentally as 3.1 MHz (NH) and 1.0 MHz (NH3) by a comparison of the 14N and 15N isotropic chemical shifts which differ due to the isotropic second-order quadrupolar shift for the spin I = 1 14N nucleus. It is shown that the peak sensitivities increase markedly upon increasing the MAS frequency from 30 to 45 to 60 kHz due to a combination of the reduced residual dipolar broadening of the 1H resonances and a lengthening of the coherence lifetimes under R
3
recoupling. Increasing the recoupling period leads to the observation of additional peaks corresponding to longer range intra- and intermolecular NH proximities. Reasonable agreement is evident upon comparing the experimental build-up of correlation peak intensity to that observed for eight-spin density-matrix simulations.

Abstract
Determination of three-dimensional structures of biological macromolecules by magic-angle spinning (MAS) solid-state NMR spectroscopy is hindered by the paucity of nuclear dipolar coupling-based restraints corresponding to distances exceeding 5 Å. Recent MAS NMR studies of uniformly (13)C,(15)N-enriched proteins containing paramagnetic centers have demonstrated the measurements of site-specific nuclear pseudocontact shifts and spin relaxation enhancements, which report on electron-nucleus distances up to ~20 Å. These studies pave the way for the application of such long-distance paramagnetic restraints to protein structure elucidation and analysis of protein-protein and protein-ligand interactions in the solid phase. Paramagnetic species also facilitate the rapid acquisition of high resolution and sensitivity multidimensional solid-state NMR spectra of biomacromolecules using condensed data collection schemes, and characterization of solvent-accessible surfaces of peptides and proteins. In this review we discuss some of the latest applications of magic-angle spinning NMR spectroscopy in conjunction with paramagnetic probes to the structural studies of proteins in the solid state.
