Abstract
Flavin semiquinones are common intermediate redox states in flavoproteins, and thus, knowledge of their electronic structure is essential for fully understanding their chemistry and chemical versatility. In this contribution, we use a combination of high-field electron nuclear double resonance spectroscopy and selective deuterium labeling of flavin mononucleotide (FMN) with subsequent incorporation as cofactor into a variant Avena sativa LOV domain to extract missing traits of the electronic structure of a protein-bound FMN radical. From these experiments, precise values of small proton hyperfine and deuterium nuclear quadrupole couplings could be extracted. Specifically, isotropic hyperfine couplings of -3.34, -0.11, and +0.91 MHz were obtained for the protons H(6), H(9), and H(7α), respectively. These values are discussed in the light of specific protein-cofactor interactions. Furthermore, the temperature behavior of the H(7α) methyl-group rotation elicited by its energy landscape was analyzed in greater detail. Pronounced interplay between the two methyl groups at C(7) and C(8) of FMN could be revealed. Most strikingly, this rotational behavior could be modulated by selective deuterium editing.

JOURNAL OF MAGNETIC RESONANCE (SAN DIEGO, CALIF. : 1997) 2013; 226:1-12. [PMID: 23174312 DOI: 10.1016/j.jmr.2012.10.013] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/29/2012] [Revised: 10/17/2012] [Accepted: 10/22/2012] [Indexed: 06/01/2023]
Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) cross-polarization magic angle spinning (CP-MAS) (2)H-(13)C heteronuclear correlation (HETCOR) experiments were utilized to indirectly detect site-specific deuterium MAS powder patterns. The (2)H-(13)C cross-polarization efficiency is orientation-dependent and non-uniform for all crystallites. This leads to difficulty in extracting the correct (2)H MAS quadrupole powder patterns. In order to obtain accurate deuterium line shapes, (13)C spin lock rf field, spin lock rf ramp and CP contact time were carefully calibrated with the assistance of theoretical simulations. The extracted quadrupole patterns for U-[(2)H/(13)C/(15)N]-alanine indicate that the methyl deuterium undergoes classic, three-site jumping in the fast motion regime (10(-8)-10(-12)s) and the methine deuterium has a rigid deuterium powder pattern. For U-[(2)H/(13)C/(15)N]-phenylalanine, indirectly detected deuterium line shapes illustrate that the aromatic ring undergoes 180° flips in the fast motion regime while (2)Hβ and (2)Hα are completely rigid. The experimental deuterium line shapes for U-[(2)H/(13)C/(15)N]-proline reflect that (2)Hβ, (2)Hγ and (2)Hδ are subjected to fast, two-site reorientations at an angle of (15±5)°, (30±5)° and (25±10)° respectively. In addition, an approach that combines a composite inversion pulse with (2)H-(13)C CP-MAS is applied to measure (2)H spin-lattice relaxation times in a site-specific, (13)C-detected fashion.

Abstract
We present in this paper 2H,13C MAS correlation experiments that are performed on a uniformly 2H,13C,15N labeled sample of Nac-Val, and on the uniformly 2H,15N labeled dipeptide Nac-Val-Leu-OH. The experiments involve the measurement of 2H T1 relaxation times at two different magnetic fields, as well as the measurement of the 2H tensor parameters by evolution of the 2H chemical shift. The data are interpreted quantitatively to differentiate between different side chain motional models.

Abstract
In this paper, we present a variable temperature (2)H solid-state NMR investigation of cryptophane-E:chloroform and cryptophane-E:dichloromethane inclusion complexes. The (2)H line shapes and nuclear spin relaxation rates were analyzed in terms of the distribution of C-D bond orientations and the time scale of the guest dynamics. It was found that encaged chloroform produces broad (2)H spectra, and that its reorientation is relatively slow with a correlation time of approximately 0.17 mus at 292 K. In contrast, the (2)H line shapes of encaged dichloromethane are narrow and the motion of this guest molecule is fast with a correlation time of approximately 1.4 ps at 283 K. The (2)H NMR data were complemented by an X-ray diffraction study of the cryptophane-E:dichloromethane structure, which was utilized in the analysis of the NMR parameters.
