Protein samples for NMR were buffer exchanged into 25 mM sodium phosphate buffer, 100 mM NaCl, 10% v/v D2O, pH 6.8 in an Amicon Ultra concentrator (EMD Millipore, Billerica, MA) to a final volume of 350 µL. All final protein concentrations were ~35 µM.19F 1D NMR spectra with 1H composite decoupling during acquisition were recorded on a 600 MHz Bruker AVANCE spectrometer, equipped with a CP TXO F/C-H-D triple-resonance z-axis gradient cryoprobe (Bruker Biospin, Billerica, MA). Spectra for the inhibitor-free proteins as well as samples containing NVP, EFV, ETR, and RPV at 1:1 and 1:5 RT: NNRTI inhibitor ratios were recorded using Topspin 3.1 (Bruker) and analyzed with MestReNova (Escondido, CA). Prior to Fourier transformation, the time-domain free-induction decays were apodized with an exponential function, using a line broadening factor of 30 Hz. Chemical shifts and linewidths were calculated using the peak deconvolution feature in MestReNova. An upper limit of uncertainty for the linewidths was qualitatively estimated by assuming that the fit error of each peak is associated with the linewidth error.

NMR Spectroscopy of G-Quadruplex RNA

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The one-dimensional 1H NMR spectra were mostly recorded at 308 K on Bruker 700-MHz spectrometers equipped with a regular probe. RNA samples were dissolved in 5 mM Potassium Cacodylate (Kcaco) (pH 6.5), 50 mM KCl, and 10% D2O at a final concentration of 300 μM. The NMR data were processed with Bruker TopSpin Version 3.2 and MestReNova. Formation of the G4 structure was demonstrated by the presence of an imino proton peak in the 10–11.5 ppm region of the 1H NMR spectrum, which is highly characteristic of the Hoogsteen hydrogen bonds of G4 (42 (link)).

1H NMR assays were conducted using a Bruker AVIII 700 MHz NMR spectrometer equipped with a 5-mm inverse triple-resonance-inverse (TCI) cryoprobe at 298 K. NMR spectra were processed using MestReNova (version 1.10) and TopSpin (version 3.6.1). R132H IDH1 assays were performed in buffer (50 mM Tris-d11, pH 7.5, 10%v/v D2O, 10 mM MgCl2, 150 mM NaCl) using a water suppression pulse sequence (32 scans with a 2 s relaxation delay per time point). Conditions of the R132H IDH1-catalyzed reduction of 2OG derivatives (180 μL total reaction volume in 3 mm diameter MATCH NMR tubes): 0.5 μM R132H IDH1, 1.5 mM 2OG/2OG derivatives, 1.5 mM NADPH.
Binding studies were performed at 298K in buffer (50 mM Tris-d11, pH 7.5, 10%v/v D2O, 10 mM CaCl2) using CPMG NMR spectroscopy (56 ) and a water suppression pulse sequence. Concentrated R132H IDH1 (1.4 mM stock) was titrated (in 2.86 μL increments) into a mixture (160 μL total volume) containing a 2OG derivative (50 μM) in 3 mm diameter MATCH NMR tubes (Bruker).

All chemicals were purchased from either Sigma-Aldrich or Fisher Scientific. ACS grade methanol, ethyl acetate, toluene, anhydrous DMF, DCM, and DMSO were purchased from Fisher Scientific or Sigma-Aldrich. All reactions were performed under an argon atmosphere. NMR data were collected on a Bruker AVANCE 500 MHz spectrometer, and analysis was carried out using MestReNova. HRMS data was obtained at the Mass Spectrometry Facility at the University of Connecticut. FT-IR analysis was carried out on a Bruker Alpha Platinum ATR instrument using OPUS software (v7.2). The preparation of previously characterized ITZ intermediates (3-5) followed known procedures with minor modifications.11 (link),12 (link),20 (link),21 All ITZ analogues evaluated in the biological assays were greater than 95% pure based on the HPLC methods described below.

For spectra recorded in 90% H2O/10% D2O water signal was suppressed using the 3–9–19 WATERGATE pulse sequence or excitation sculpting with gradient pulse. The data were processed with TopSpin 3.0 (Bruker BioSpin Gmbh) software and analyzed with MestReNova software. For 1D NMR measurement, RNA samples of 2 mM concentration were dissolved in 150 µl of designed solution containing 10% D2O, 150 mM KCl and 10 mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 7.0). The 2D NMR spectrum in 90% H2O/10% D2O was collected from 360 scans with 150 ms mixing time at 23 °C. On average, 2048 complex points and 512 FIDs were collected within the spectral width of 14097 Hz. The sample solutions were as follows: 3 mM RNA were dissolved in 150 µl of designed solution containing 10% D2O, 150 mM KCl and 10 mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 7.0). Samples were prepared by heating the oligonucleotides at 85 °C for 3 min and gradually cooling to room temperature.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
