Abstract
We describe the simplification of 13C–13C correlation spectra obtained from a microcrystalline protein sample expressed on a growth medium of 10% fully 13C labeled glucose diluted in 90% natural abundance glucose as compared to a fully labeled sample. Such a labeling scheme facilitates the backbone and side-chain resonance assignment of Phe, Tyr, His, Asp, Asn, Ile, Lys and Pro and yields an unambiguous stereospecific assignment of the valine Cγ1, Cγ2 13C resonances and of Leucine Cδ2.
