Characterising side chains in large proteins by protonless 13C-detected NMR spectroscopy

Analysis of side-chain motions by NMR has so far been restricted to small proteins and methyl-bearing side chains. Here, the authors present NMR methods based on 13C direct detection of highly deuterated protein samples that yield sharp and well-resolved signals and allow the characterisation of sid...
