Application of residual dipolar couplings (RDCs) in nucleic acids:
  • Structure determination and refinement of:
  • DNAs ( 00JACS9648, 01JACS3903 , 02JB1-24, 02JB317-24 and 03JB297-26)
  • RNA ( 00JACS11561 and 01JACS12135)
  • RNA-protein complex ( 99JB149-14)
  • Resonance assignment and simultaneous tertiary structure determination of RNA ( 02JMB637)
  • Periodicity in RDCs and nucleic acid structures ( 04JACS1938)
  • 1DCH measured for a 15mer DNA quelated to paramagnetic lanthanid ions ( 98JMR256-135) from a F2-coupled HSQC experiment.
  • Measurement of the H....H/H-N hydrogen bond length in double stranded DNA from 1J(NH) dipolar couplings ( 01JB361-19)
  • NMR Experiments
  • Homonuclear 1H-1H coupling constants:
  • from CT-COSY experiments ( 01JMR242-151 and 03PNAS11333)
  • H2'-C2 and H3'-C3 RDCs in RNA molecules from 3D IPAP-based HCCH-COSY experiments.
  • A suite of S3E schemes has been proposed to measure small scalar and dipolar 1DCC, 1DCN, 2DCH, 2DNH in 13C,15N labeled purine and pyrimidine bases ( 01JB153-21).
  • MQ-HCN-based pulse sequences to measure a series of one-bond and two-bonds dipolar couplings in labeled DNA ( 02JB9-22). Related J-quantitative experiments have been also reported to measure 15N-13C RDCs in nucleic acids ( 05JB231-31).

  • 1DCH, 1DNH and DHH of a DNA dodecamer in aqueous crystalline medium containing 5% bicelles ( 00JACS6190) and DHH and DPH in liquid crystalline Pf1 medium ( 03JB297-26).
  • 1DCH in RNA-antibiotic complexes ( 00JACS7853).
  • 1D(CH), 1D(CC) and 2D(CH) using 3D HCC TROSY experiments displaying E.COSY multiplet patterns ( 04JB287-30).
