Abstract:The rotational resonance width (R2W) experiment is a constant-time version of the rotational resonance (R2) experiment, in which the magnetization exchange is measured as a function of sample spinning frequency rather than the mixing time. The significant advantage of this experiment over conventional R2 is that both the dipolar coupling and the relaxation parameters can be independently and unambiguously extracted from the magnetization exchange profile. In this paper, we combine R2W with two-dimensional 13C-13C chemical shift correlation spectroscopy and demonstrate the utility of this technique for the site-specific measurement of multiple 13C-13C distances in uniformly labeled solids. The dipolar truncation effects, usually associated with distance measurements in uniformly labeled solids, are considerably attenuated in R2W experiments. Thus, R2W experiments are applicable to uniformly labeled biological systems. To validate this statement, multiple 13C-13C distances (in the range of 3-6 A) were determined in N-acetyl-U-13C,15N]l-Val-l-Leu with an average precision of +/-0.5 A. Furthermore, the distance constraints extracted using a two-spin model agree well with the X-ray crystallographic data.
