Fast Ultra‐Selective 1H‐15N 1D NMR Spectroscopy Unlocks Atom‐Resolved Dynamics of Low‐Complexity Protein Regions

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
NMR 15N spin‐relaxation rates are a primary source of information for deciphering protein conformational dynamics, but they require unreasonable experimental times when their 1H‐15N 2D spectra are highly congested. We propose an ultra‐selective method, SNIPER, that greatly accelerates data collection of individual residues. This allows characterization
