A suite of solid-state NMR experiments for RNA intranucleotide resonance assignment in a 21 kDa protein-RNA complex

Angew Chem Int Ed Engl. 2013 Sep 16;52(38):9996-10001. doi: 10.1002/anie.201304779. Epub 2013 Jul 26.

Abstract

Intranucleotide resonance of the 26mer box C/D RNA in complex with the L7Ae protein were assigned by solid-state NMR (ssNMR; see picture) spectroscopy. This investigation opens the way for studying RNA in large protein-RNA complexes by ssNMR spectroscopy.

Keywords: NMR spectroscopy; RNA; RNA-protein complexes; structure elucidation.
