Abstract

The revisited version of the HACACO experiment here presented, is more robust and straightforward to implement and continues to be, to a greater extent, a convenient tool for protein backbone resonance assignment. Additionally, it turns out to be a sensitive and accurate method to measure C α–H α residual dipolar couplings (RDCs). The performance of our new pulse scheme for measurement of RDCs was tested on two proteins with different secondary structures: one characterized by a high β-sheet content, the second dominated by the presence of α-helices. In both examples the new method provided significantly more accurate data, compared to all previously published 3D techniques.
