19 STRUTTURE IN SOLUZIONE VIA NMR

20 The need for multidimensional NMR

22 Cosa è un esperimento bidimensionale ?
Dopo un impulso a 90° il segnale è pronto per essere acquisito Facciamo l’acquisizione ma NON terminiamo l’esperimento ed applichiamo ancora uno o piu’ impulsi in modo da perturbare ulterioremente il sistema Attraverso una combinazione di impulsi e delays noi facciamo in modo che ci sia uno scambio di magnetizzazione tra spin accoppiati SUCCESSIVAMENTE, acquisiamo il segnale una seconda volta, Registrando il segnale NMR che rimane sul piano xy dopo la perturbazione

23 Eccito (impulso a 90°)-Acquisisco (t1)- Perturbo (trasferisco)- Acquisisco (t2)
Se la perturbazione non ha effetto e se non c’è trasferimento di alcun tipo, Ottengo lo stesso spettro in ciascuna delle 2 dimensioni tempo (t1 e t2) Dopo la trasformate di Fourier io otterro’ uno spettro dove i segnali appaiono su una diagonale di una matrice quadrata

24 Acquisisco (t1)- Perturbo (trasferisco)- Acquisisco (t2)
Se durante la perturbazione una parte della magnetizzazione si traferisce da un nucleo ad un altro, per esempio per effetto di accoppiamento scalare, allora lo spettro della dimensione t2 sarà diverso da quello della dimensione t1. Il risultato è che avro’ dei segnali fuori dalla diagonale. Ciascun segnale fuori dalla diagonale darà l’informazione sugli accoppiamenti scalari attivi nel sistema M (wI t1) (wSt2)

25 EXAMPLE O H H N C C We make a 1H experiment and we acquire. I observe Hn Then all signals transfer the information because of scalar coupling H H N C Spectrum before The J coupling Then I observe Hc I consider the first and the second acquisition as two indpendent dimensions Spectrum after The J coupling

26 EXAMPLE O H H N C C Signal! 9 ppm 4 ppm H H N C Spectrum before
This indicates that there is a scalar coupling between Hn and Hc H H N C Spectrum before The J coupling 9 ppm 4 ppm Spectrum after The J coupling

27 EXAMPLE O H H N C C Signal! 9 ppm 4 ppm Hn Hn Hc J-coupling H H N C
This indicates that there is a scalar coupling between Hn and Hc H H N C Spectrum before The J coupling 9 ppm 4 ppm Hn Hn Hc J-coupling Spectrum after The J coupling

28 EXAMPLE O H H N C C If you begin from Hc , the situation is the same !
Spectrum before The J coupling Hc Hc Hn J-coupling Spectrum after The J coupling

29 EXAMPLE O H H N C C Therefore, if I consider only this system Hc Hc Hn
Spectrum before The J coupling Hn J-coupling Hn Hn Hc J-coupling Spectrum after The J coupling

30 The second dimension = t2
The first dimension = t1 The second dimension = t2 the series of pulses that I have to apply to my system = PULSE SEQUENCE example t1 dimension Or F1 t1 t2 t2 dimension Or F2

31 Usually t1 is also defined as indirect dimension
t2 is also defined as direct dimension the series of pulses that I have to apply to my system = PULSE SEQUENCE example t1 dimension Or F1 t1 t2 t2 dimension Or F2

32 CROSS PEAK= Yes, There is a COUPLING between the two frequencies
Definitions Diagonal peak The same frequency is observed in both dimensions F1 Cross peak Two different frequencies are observed in the two dimensions F2 CROSS PEAK= Yes, There is a COUPLING between the two frequencies

33 Accoppiamento scalare
L’accoppiamento scalare puo’ comunque essere osservato attraverso esperimenti NMR bidimensionali, quali il COSY

34 COrrelation SpectroscopY
Example: COSY Through-bond connectivities H4’-H5’ H4-H5 COSY= COrrelation SpectroscopY

35 COrrelation SpectroscopY
Example: COSY Through-bond connectivities H4’-H5’ 2 4 3 H4-H5 5 6 COSY= COrrelation SpectroscopY 1

36 Beyond COSY COSY is not the only 2D experiment
It is possible to transfer the information from spin A to spin B via several possible mechanisms The most important routes, which is COMPLEMENTARY TO J-coupling Is THROUGH SPACE COUPLING

37 Accoppiamento dipolare
L’accoppiamento dipolare si ha tra due spin che sono vicini nello spazio Si tratta della interazione tra due dipoli magnetici, tra i quali, quando essi sono vicini nello spazio, si ha uno scambio di energia L’entità dell’effetto dipende dal campo magnetico e dalle dimensioni della molecola. Nel caso di spin 1H, l’accoppiamento dipolare si trasferisce per spin che si trovano a distanze inferiori ai 5 A. NON si osservano doppietti L’accoppiamento dipolare da luogo ad un trasferimento di magnetizzazione da uno spin all’altro. Questo effetto va sotto il nome di effetto NOE Nuclear Overhauser Effect Aumenta la intensità di B Perturbo A

38 Accoppiamento dipolare
L’accoppiamento dipolare è “indipendente dall’accoppiamento scalare 2 spin possono essere accoppiati : -Scalarmente E dipolarmente se sono vicini nello spazio e legati da legami chimici -scalarmente ma non dipolarmente se sono legati da legami chimici ma non vicini nello spazio -dipolarmente ma non scalarmente se sono spazialmente vicini ma non legati da legamei chimici L’effetto NOE è osservabile in un esperimento NMR bidimensionale , detto NOESY (in realtà si puo’ anche osservare in esperimenti monodimensionle (1D NOE) di cui pero’ non parleremo Pensate a degli esempi, per favore

39 Through space AND throuhg bonds
Through bond

40 Nuclear Overhauser Effect SpectroscopY
Example: Nuclear Overhauser Effect SpectroscopY NOESY NOE Effect: If two spins that are close in space are excited out of equilibrium, they will mutually transfer their magnetization AA AB

41 Example: The real case:
Some 1500 peaks are observed for a protein of 75 aminoacids NOESY experiment Cross peaks: A and B are close Diagonal peak AA AB

E’ possibile progettare esperimenti per trasferire la magnetizzazione da un nucleo all’altro anche indipendentemente dall’acquisizione Seconda dimensione Prima dimensione In questo esperimento il primo spin che viene eccitato è 1H, la magnetizzazione viene trasferita da 1H a 13C PRIMA della acquisizione della prima dimensione, che quindi è 13C. SOLO i 13C che sono accoppiati ad 1H possono essere osservati! Successivamente la magnetizzazione e di nuovo trasferita 1H utilizzando sempre l’accoppiamento scalare ed alla fine osservo 1H

70 2D HSQC Experiment Questo tipo di esperimento si chiama anche
Out and back Significa che parto da 1H, trasferisco da 1H a 13C (out), acquisisco 13C nella prima dimensione e poi torno (back) sullo stesso nucleo da cui sono partito Il doppio trasferimento fa si che l’esperimento sia molto piu’ selettivo Osservo solo 1H e 13C che sono accoppiati tra di se per effetto di 1J

88 Introduction to Isotope Labeling of Proteins For NMR
Overview of Protein Expression Expression systems are based on the insertion of a gene into a host cell for its translation and expression into protein . Many recombinant proteins can be expressed to high levels in E. coli systems. most common choice for expressing labeled proteins for NMR Yeast (Pichia pastoris, Saccaromyces cerevisiae) is an alternative choice for NMR protein samples issues with glycosolyation of protein, which is not a problem with E. coli. choice between E. coli and yeast generally depend on personal experience. Insect cells (Baculovirus) and mammalian cell lines (CHO) are very popular expression systems that are currently not amenable for NMR samples no mechanism to incorporate isotope labeling or the process is cost prohibitive 15N labeling in CHO cells can cost $ K!

89 Introduction to Isotope Labeling of Proteins For NMR
Overview of Protein Expression First step of the process involves the insertion of the DNA coding region of the protein of interest into a plasmid. plasmid - small, circular pieces of DNA that are found in E. coli and many other bacteria generally remain separate from the bacterial chromosome carry genes that can be expressed in the bacterium plasmids generally replicate and are passed on to daughter cells along with the chromosome Plasmids are highly infective, so many of the bacteria will take up the particles from simple exposure. Treating with calcium salts make membranes permeable and increase uptake of plasmids Plasmids used for cloning and expressing proteins are modified natural vectors more compact and efficient unnecessary elements removed Some Common plasmids pBR322 pUC19 pBAD large collections of plasmids with unique features and functions see:

94 Introduction to Isotope Labeling of Proteins For NMR
Overview of Protein Expression Next step of the process involves getting E. coli to express the protein from the plasmid. this occurs by the position of a promoter next to the inserted gene two common promoters are lac complex promoter T7 promoter lac complex promoter: Transcription is simply switched on by the addition of IPTG (isopropyl β-D-thiogalactoside) to remove LacI repressor protein. IPTG binds LacI which no longer binds the promoter region allowing transcription to occur

95 Introduction to Isotope Labeling of Proteins For NMR
Overview of Protein Expression T7 promoter: Again, transcription is switched on by the addition of IPTG to remove LacI repressor protein. IPTG binds LacI which no longer binds the promoter region allowing transcription/production of T7 RNA polymerase to occur. T7 RNA polymerase binds the T7 promoter in the plasmid to initiate expression of the protein two-step process leads to an amplification of the amount of gene product - produce very high quantities of protein.

100 Introduction to Isotope Labeling of Proteins For NMR
Overview of Protein Expression Protein Purification - A large number of ways to purify a protein protocols are dependent on the protein chromatography is a common component of the purification protocol where typically multiple columns are used: a) size-exclusion b) ion exchange c) Ni column d) heparin e) reverse-phase f) affinity column dialysis for buffer exchange and removal of low-molecular weigh impurities To increase the ease of purifying a protein generally include a unique tag sequence at the N- or C-terminus HIS tag – add 6 histidines to the N- or C- terminus - preferentially binds Ni column FLAG tag – DYKDDDDK added to terminus - preferentially binds M1 monoclonal antibody affinity column glutathione S-transferase (GST) tags – fusion protein - readily purified with glutathione-coupled column

111 The Magnet History First magnets were built using
ferromagnetic material= permanent magnet Then Electromagnets: i.e. field was generated by wiring of conducting material Now: cyomagnets: i.e. electromagnets made of superconducting wire. A “cutted” magnet

112 Cryomagnets Superconducting wire
has a resistance approximately equal to zero when it is cooled to a temperature close to absolute zero ( o C or 0 K) by emersing it in liquid helium. Once current is caused to flow in the coil it will continue to flow for as long as the coil is kept at liquid helium temperatures. The length of superconducting wire in the magnet is typically several miles.

113 The NMR spectrometer

114 Det. ADC w0 (reference) NMR Signal Computer Memory 500 MHz ± 2500 Hz

115 The Probe The sample probe is the name given to that part of the spectrometer which accepts the sample, sends RF energy into the sample, and detects the signal emanating from the sample. It contains the RF coil, sample spinner, temperature controlling circuitry, and gradient coils. Picture an axial cross section of a cylindrical tube containing sample. In a very homogeneous Bo magnetic field this sample will yield a narrow spectrum

116 B0 homogeneity In a more inhomogeneous field the sample will yield a broader spectrum due to the presence of lines from the parts of the sample experiencing different Bo magnetic fields.

117 Set up an experiment. What to do?
Shimming the magnet Lock Tune 90° Pulse

We have cryo shims and room temperature shims LOCK 1.contineously determine frequency of 2H signal of the solvent (deuterated solvents) 2. add a small extra field to the main field of the magnet to keep the overall field constant 3. 2H signal also used for shimming

119 Problem: how to keep B0 constant throughout the NMR sample?
