Abstract
We present two new sensitivity enhanced gradient NMR experiments for measuring interference effects between chemical shift anisotropy (CSA) and dipolar coupling interactions in a scalar coupled two-spin system in both the laboratory and rotating frames. We apply these methods for quantitative measurement of longitudinal and transverse cross-correlation rates involving interference of (13)C CSA and (13)C-(1)H dipolar coupling in a disaccharide, alpha,alpha-D-trehalose, at natural abundance of (13)C as well as interference of amide (15)N CSA and (15)N-(1)H dipolar coupling in uniformly (15)N-labeled ubiquitin. We demonstrate that the standard heteronuclear T(1), T(2), and steady-state NOE autocorrelation experiments augmented by cross-correlation measurements provide sufficient experimental data to quantitatively separate the structural and dynamic contributions to these relaxation rates when the simplifying assumptions of isotropic overall tumbling and an axially symmetric chemical shift tensor are valid.
