Resolution enhancement in solid-state NMR of oriented membrane proteins by anisotropic differential linebroadening
We demonstrate that a significant improvement in the spectral resolution may be achieved in solid-state NMR experiments of proteins in inhomogeneously disordered oriented lipid bilayers. Using H-1 homonuclear decoupling instead of standard H-1 heteronuclear decoupling, the N-15 line widths may be reduced by up to seven times for such samples. For large oriented membrane proteins, such resolution enhancements may be crucial for assignment and structural interpretation.
