NMR Characterization of Biomolecular Samples

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Experiments were performed on 500 MHz, 750 MHz and 800 MHz Varian spectrometers. Resonances were assigned unambiguously using samples with site-specific low-enrichment 15N or 15N, 13C labeling and through-bond correlations at natural abundance. Standard 2D NMR experimental spectra including NOESY, TOCSY and COSY, were collected at 25 °C to obtain the complete proton resonance assignments. The NMR experiments for samples in water solution were performed with Watergate or Jump-and-Return water suppression techniques. The variable temperature spectra were recorded on 500 MHz Varian spectrometer from 5 °C to 50 °C. All spectra were processed by the program NMRPipe. Spectral assignments were also carried out and supported by COSY, TOCSY and NOESY spectra. Peak assignments were achieved using the software Sparky.

The polymers were characterized by 1H NMR after dissolving the samples in DMSO-d6 or CDCl3. 1H NMR spectra was acquired using a 400 MHz Varian spectrometer. The diffusion measurement was carried out by observing the attenuation of the 1H NMR signals during a pulsed field gradient experiment using a 500 MHz Varian spectrometer in DMSO-d6. The molecular weight and polydispersity index (PDI) of the polymers was determined using MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry. The polymer and 2,5 dihydroxybenzoic acid (DHB) matrix were dissolved in methanol at 1 mg/mL and mixed. The mixture was dried on a metal sample plate and placed in the high vacuum source chamber for measurement by analyzing “time of flight” of the produced sample ions. The most probable peak was calculated from the spectra, which was reported as the molecular weight of the polymer.

An appropriate amount of the complexes 1a,b and 2a,b was dissolved in 200 µL of DMF-d7 and 300 µL of D2O was added (1 mM final concentration). 1H NMR spectra (Varian spectrometer (Varian Inc.; Palo Alto, CA, USA), 400 MHz, 298 K) of these solutions were recorded at various time points (0–48 h), and the solutions were stored at r.t. in the dark between the individual experiments. The spectra were referenced to the residual signal of water (4.79 ppm). Note: DMF-d7 ensured the solubility of the complexes, as their solubility in water is not sufficient for 1H NMR. Deuterated solvents DMF-d7 and D2O were supplied by Merck/Sigma-Aldrich (Prague, Czech Republic). Free pyrazoles were studied by 1H NMR under the same experimental conditions (for comparative purposes).

Coupling constants (J) are reported in units of Hertz (Hz). The following abbreviations are used to describe multiplicities – s (singlet), d (doublet), t (triplet), q (quartet), m (multiplet), br. (broad). High resolution mass spectra (HRMS, m/z) was acquired by a Bruker MaXis 4G Q-TOF mass spectrometer with electrospray ionization source.
All animal experiments were conducted under Washington University’s Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee IACUC)-approved protocols in accordance with the US National Research Council’s Guide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals.

1H-NMR spectra were acquired using a 600 MHz Varian spectrometer (Varian, Inc., Palo Alto, CA, USA) equipped with a 3-mm indirect detection probe, as previously described [25 (link)]. A total of 180 µL of medium of each condition (n = 15) was analyzed. Samples were diluted with a sodium fumarate and deuterated water solution (final concentration of 2 mM in 225 µL), which was used as internal reference (6.50 ppm) to quantify the following metabolites present in the medium (multiplet, ppm): lactate (doublet, 1.33), acetate (singlet, 1.90), and malate (double doublet, 2.37). Spectra were manually phased and baseline corrected. Chosen metabolites peaks were integrated using the NUTS-Pro NMR software (Acorn NMR, Inc, Fremont, CA, USA). Results are expressed as nmol/106 spermatozoa.

The polysaccharide and purified oligosaccharides were analyzed by NMR spectroscopy. The samples were exchanged twice with 99.9% D2O by lyophilization and then dissolved in 0.6 mL of 99.96% D2O. Spectra were recorded on a 500 MHz VARIAN spectrometer (Varian Inc., Palo Alto, CA, USA) operating at 50 °C for the polymer and 25 °C for oligosaccharides solutions. Two-dimensional (2D) experiments were performed using standard VARIAN pulse sequences and pulsed field gradients for coherence selection when appropriate. Standard parameters were used for 2D NMR experiments. Chemical shifts are expressed in ppm using acetone as internal reference (2.225 ppm for 1H and 31.07 ppm for 13C). NMR spectra were processed using MestreNova software (Mestrelab Research, S.L., Santiago de Compostela, Spain).

IFITM3 proteinfor NMR experiments were expressed and purified as described before, except that the final NMR samples were prepared in 50 mM phosphate buffer containing 10% D2O, with a concentration of 1.0 mM. A series of TROSY-based multi-dimensional NMR experiments were performed on 500 MHz Varian spectrometer, 700 MHz Varian spectrometer and 600 MHz Bruker spectrometer. 1H/15N labeled IFITM3 protein was used for 2D TROSY-HSQC and NOESY-HSQC experiments. The 13C/15N labeled sample and 2H/13C/15N labeled sample in DPC detergent micelles were both applied for 3D HNCA, HN(CO)CA, HNCO, HN(CA)CO, CBCANH, and CBCA(CO)NH spectra collecting at pH 7.0 and 35 °C. Besides, to assist assignment, 2D TROSY experiments were performed using 15N-Leucine, 15N-Isoleucine, 15N-Valine, 15N-Methionine and 15N-Phenylalanine selectively labeled IFITM3 samples. Details of the experimental parameters were described previously. All the spectra were analyzed using NMRPipe and NMRView. Backbone resonance assignment was then performed. Dihedral angle constraints were predicted using Talos + program, based on the obtained chemical shifts of 13Cα, 13Cβ, 13CO, 1Hα, 15N, 1HN. Finally, the resulting dihedral angle and NOE restrains were applied in structure calculation using Xplor-NIH program.

1H NMR spectra were recorded
using a 500 MHz Varian spectrometer. The CDCl3 singlet
at 7.26 ppm was selected as the reference standard. Spectral features
are tabulated in the following order: chemical shift (ppm); multiplicity
(s-singlet, d-doublet, t-triplet, m-complex multiple); number of protons;
position of protons. For the synthesis of (co)polymers, monomer conversion
was determined by 1H NMR analysis. Molecular weight and
molecular weight distribution of the (co)polymers were determined
by gel permeation chromatography (GPC). An Agilent GPC was equipped
with a 1260 Infinity Isocratic Pump and a RI detector. Two Agilent
PLgel mixed-C and mixed-D columns were used with DMF containing 0.1
mol % LiBr at 50 °C at a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min. Linear poly(methyl
methacrylate) standards from Fluka were used for calibration. Aliquots
of the polymer samples were dissolved in DMF/LiBr. The clear solutions
were filtered using a 0.40 μm PTFE filter to remove any DMF-insoluble
species. A drop of anisole was added as a flow rate marker. Fourier
transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) was recorded on a Nicolet
iS5 spectrometer (Thermo Scientific).

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.
