  • We welcome Dr. Minli Xing to BioNMR core facility. Minli is a protein NMR spectroscopist, her research interests include studying protein structure and function using NMR spectroscopy. Prior to joining the University of Michigan, Minli was the lab manager of the Biomolecular NMR Lab at the University of Kansas, where she operated and maintained a 600 MHz and an 800 MHz NMR spectrometer. During her work at the University of Kansas, she has developed extensive experience in protein structure determination, protein-protein and protein-ligand interaction, and STD-NMR fragment screening.

Advanced Capabilities of NEO console on 800 Mhz NMR instrument

The NEO console has the capability of acquiring nested NMR experiments (combining up to five conventional NMR pulse sequences into one supersequence). We have working versions of all sequences mentioned in the latest paper Kupče Ē, Claridge TDW. New NOAH modules for structure elucidation at natural isotopic abundance (2019) J Magn Reson. 307 106568. (https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1090780719301855?via%3Dihub)

NMR Technique Highlight: Accelerating 2D NMR relaxation dispersion experiments using iterated maps

Conventionally relaxation dispersion data would require collection of data using the full Nyquist grid. The authors had previously developed Fourier-based reconstruction method using iterated maps according to the Difference Map algorithm of Veit Elser (DiffMap), which has been further developed to exploit the strong correlations between 2D data slices in a pseudo-3D experiment. Details of the paper can be found in the link below:
