Abstract
Assignment of the chemical shifts of the backbone atoms (HN, N, CA, CB, and C) of proteins is often a prerequisite to using NMR information in the study of proteins. These chemical shifts and their perturbations are the basis for the analysis of protein dynamics, ligand binding, and backbone conformation. They are generally assigned prior to full side-chain assignments and the determination of the complete three-dimensional molecular structure. This chapter describes the use of two software packages, NMRFx Processor and NMRViewJ, in going from raw NMR data to backbone assignments. The step-by-step procedure describes processing of the data and the use of manual and automated features of the RunAbout tool in NMRViewJ to perform the assignments.
