Proton-detection results in high sensitivity compared to the heteronuclei detection methods. Utilizing four independent radiofrequency (RF) channels (quadruple-resonance), we managed to excite the </span>²H_α, then transfer deuterium polarization to its attached C_α<span>, followed by polarization transfers to the neighboring backbone nitrogen and then to the amide proton for detection. This experiment results in an easy to interpret HSQC-like 2D </span>¹H–¹⁵<span>N fingerprint NMR spectrum, which contains site-specific deuterium quadrupolar patterns in the indirect third dimension. Provided that four-channel NMR probe technology is available, the setup of the </span>²H_αc_αNH experiment is relatively straightforward, by using low power deuterium excitation and polarization transfer schemes we have been developing. To our knowledge, this is the first demonstration of a quadruple-resonance MAS NMR experiment to link ²H_α quadrupolar couplings to proton-detection, extending our previous triple-resonance demonstrations. Distortion-free excitation and polarization transfer of ∼160–170 kHz ²H_α<span> quadrupolar coupling were presented by using a deuterium RF strength of ∼20 kHz. From these </span>²H_α patterns, an average backbone order parameter of S = 0.92 was determined on a deuterated SH3 sample, with an average η = 0.22. These indicate that SH3 backbone represents sizable dynamics in the microsecond timescale where the ²H_α lineshape is sensitive. Moreover, site-specific ²H_α T₁ relaxation times were obtained for a proof of concept. This 3D ²H_αc_αNH NMR experiment has the potential to determine structure and dynamics of perdeuterated proteins by utilizing deuterium as a novel reporter.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":21937,"journal":{"name":"Solid state nuclear magnetic resonance","volume":"125 ","pages":"Article 101861"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49858070","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Satellite transitions, however, are typically “invisible” for half-integer quadrupolar nuclei due to their sheer breadth, leading to low signal-to-noise ratio –especially for unreceptive low-gamma or dilute quadrupolar nuclei. Very recently we have introduced a method for enhancing the NMR sensitivity of unreceptive X nuclei in static solids dubbed </span>PROgressive Saturation of the Proton Reservoir (PROSPR), which opens the possibility of magnifying the signals from such spins by repeatedly imprinting frequency-selective X-driven depolarizations on the much more sensitive </span></span>¹<span>H NMR signal.
