The 3D intra-HNCA experiment is specifically designed to correlate 15N and NH chemical shifts with the intraresidue 13CA carbon shifts by means of the 1J(NH) and 1,2J(N,CA) coupling constants.REQUIREMENTS
Implementation on AVANCE spectrometers equipped with a third channel. Improved versions using pulsed field gradients (PFGs) are also available and, therefore, in such cases gradient technology is required.VERSIONSThe experiment is applied on 15N,13C-labeled proteins. Because the amide (NH) protons are involved, the HNCA experiment must be recorded in H2O.
Intraresidue HNCA connectivities could be identified from 3D intra-HNCA experiment ( 02JMR155-156 and 02JB201 )EXPERIMENTAL DETAILS
A related experiment is the intra-COHNCA experiments
The i-HNCA experiment can be recorded in automation mode. More details on practical implementation of the 3D HNCA experiment on AVANCE spectrometers can be found in the corresponding Tutorial: 3D i-HNCA experimentSPECTRA
The HNCA experiment affords a 3D spectrum in which 1H, 15N and 13CA chemical shifts are displayed in three independent dimensions.RELATED TOPICS
