Abstract
Closed-form expressions for the analysis of Dark state Exchange Saturation Transfer (DEST) NMR experiments, a powerful experimental tool for characterizing exchange processes involving the interaction of NMR visible species with very high molecular weight partners, is presented. Essentially identical exchange and relaxation parameters are derived from the analytical and numerical best fits of the DEST profiles obtained for a protein construct derived from huntingtin exon-1, comprising the N-terminal amphiphilic sequence followed by a seven-residue glutamine repeat, httNTQ7, in the presence of small (SUV) and large (LUV) unilamellar lipid vesicles. The use of analytical expressions significantly speeds up the fitting of experimental DEST profiles to a two-state exchange model and simplifies the analysis of the DEST effects.
