In particular, we show a cascade hyperpolarization transfer. Initial proton exchange between solvent and amide introduces hyperpolarization into the peptide. Subsequently, intermolecular NOE relays the hyperpolarization first to Ala-H<sup>α</sup> and then in a second step to the Ala-CH<sub>3</sub> moiety. Both NOEs have negative signs. Hence, the twice-relayed NOE pathway leads to a positive signal enhancement of the methyl group with respect to the thermal equilibrium magnetization.
