The second round of Critical Assessment of Automated Structure Determination of Proteins by NMR: CASD-NMR-2013
2015
The second round of the community-wide initiative Critical Assessment of automated Structure Determination of Proteins by NMR (CASD-NMR-2013) comprised ten blind target datasets, consisting of unprocessed spectral data, assigned chemical shift lists and unassigned NOESY peak and RDC lists, that were made available in both curated (i.e. manually refined) or un-curated (i.e. automatically generated) form. Ten structure calculation programs, using fully automated protocols only, generated a total of 164 three-dimensional structures (entries) for the ten targets, sometimes using both curated and un-curated lists to generate multiple entries for a single target. The accuracy of the entries could…
NMR Solution Structure of the Non-RGD Disintegrin Obtustatin
2003
The solution structure of obtustatin, a novel non-RGD disintegrin of 41 residues isolated from Vipera lebetina obtusa venom, and a potent and selective inhibitor of the adhesion of integrin alpha(1)beta(1) to collagen IV, has been determined by two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance. Almost the whole set of chemical shifts for 1H, 13C and 15N were assigned at natural abundance from 2D homonuclear and heteronuclear 500 MHz, 600 MHz and 800 MHz spectra at pH 3.0 recorded at 298 K and 303 K. Final structural constraints consisted of 302 non-redundant NOE (95 long-range, 60 medium, 91 sequential and 56 intra-residue), four disulfide bond distances, five chi1 dihedral angles and four hydroge…
Combined use of 13C chemical shift and 1H alpha-13C alpha heteronuclear NOE data in monitoring a protein NMR structure refinement.
1995
A large portion of the 13C resonance assignments for murine epidermal growth factor (mEGF) at pH 3.1 and 28 degrees C has been determined at natural isotope abundance. Sequence-specific 13C assignments are reported for 100% of the assignable C alpha, 96% of the C beta, 86% of the aromatic and 70% of the remaining peripheral aliphatic resonances of mEGF. A good correlation was observed between experimental and back-calculated C alpha chemical shifts for regions of regular beta-sheet structure. These assignments also provide the basis for interpreting 1H alpha-13C alpha heteronuclear NOE (HNOE) values in mEGF at natural isotope abundance. Some of the backbone polypeptide segments with high in…
Diatropicity of tetraazanaphthalenes
2006
Tetraazanaphthalenes are diatropic molecules, whose magnetic response to a magnetic field perpendicular to the molecular plane closely resembles that of naphthalene. The out-of-plane component of the magnetic susceptibility tensor and its strong anisotropy can be used as quantifiers of magnetic aromaticity. Maps showing streamlines and modulus of the current density field provide clear evidence for diatropicity of these systems. They also explain the strong anisotropy of carbon and nitrogen magnetic shielding, which is determined by the big out-of-plane component of the nuclear shielding tensor. The electronic ring currents observed in the map deshield the nuclei of ring hydrogens by enforc…
Local aromaticity in polyacenes manifested by individual proton and carbon shieldings: DFT mapping of aromaticity
2019
Exponential dependencies between locally calculated geometric and magnetic indexes of aromaticity, harmonic oscillator model of aromaticity (HOMA) and nucleus independent chemical shifts (NICS)(0), NICS(1) and NICS(1)zz, and the number of conjugated benzene rings in linear acenes, from benzene to decacene were observed at B3LYP/6-311+G** level of theory. Correlations between HOMA and NICS indexes showed exponential dependencies and were fitted with simple three-parameter function. Similar correlations between both indexes of aromaticity and proton and carbon nuclear isotropic shieldings of individual acene rings were observed. Contrary to proton data, the predicted 13 C nuclear isotropic sh…
A New Entry to the Substituted Pyrrolo[3,2-c]quinoline Derivatives of Biological Interest by Intramolecular Heteroannulation of Internal Imines.
2004
New 1,3,4-substituted pyrrolo[3,2-c]quinoline derivatives were synthesised in good yields by oxidative heteroannulation of internal imines starting from easily prepared substituted 5-(2-aminophenyl)pyrroles and commercially available aryl and heteroaryl aldehydes. The reaction occurs as a one-pot process involving an intramolecular acid catalysed reaction.
1H,13C,17O NMR and IR spectroscopic study of all methyl chloropropanoates
1994
1 H, 13 C and 17 O NMR chemical shifts, n J(H,H) and n J(C,H) spin-spin coupling constants and IR absorption maxima and intensities for the most characteristic bands of methyl propanoate and all eleven chloropropanoic acid methyl esters are reported
ChemInform Abstract: The Tautomerism of Nitraminopyridines
2010
1H, 13C and 15N NMR data for nitraminopyridines are discussed in terms of tautomeric equilibria in these compounds. The favoured tautomer is determined mainly from 15N NMR spectroscopy. The chemical shift of the nitrogen atom of the nitro group in nitraminopyridines and N-nitroanilines which cannot tautomerize vary from 28·0 to 35·4 ppm in DMSO solution. 3-Nitraminopyridine and 2-nitramino-3- and -5-nitropyridines behave similarly. In the 15N NMR spectra of nitrimino-1-methyldihydropyridines, used as models, an upfield shift of that atom, different from that observed for 2-nitraminopyridine, indicates the significance of the nitrimino tautomer. In contrast, a downfield shift of the ring nit…

Structure Validation of Natural Products by Quantum-Mechanical GIAO Calculations of 13C NMR Chemical Shifts GIAO=gauge including atomic orbitals.
2002
Geometry optimization and GIAO (gauge including atomic orbitals) 1 3 C NMR chemical shift calculations at Hartree-Fock level, using the 6-31G(d) basis set, are proposed as a tool to be applied in the structural characterization of new organic compounds, thus providing useful support in the interpretation of experimental NMR data. Parameters related to linear correlation plots of computed versus experimental 1 3 C NMR chemical shifts for fourteen low-polar natural products, containing 10-20 carbon atoms, were employed to assess the reliability of the proposed structures. A comparison with the hybrid B3LYP method was carried out to evaluate electron correlation contributions to the calculatio…
