Nuclear magnetic resonance relaxation dispersion (rd) experiments provide kinetics and thermodynamics information of molecules undergoing conformational exchange. Rd experiments often use a Carr-Purcell-Meiboom-Gill (CPMG) pulse train equally separated by a spin-state selective inversion element (U-element). Even with measurement parameters carefully set, however, parts of 1H–15N correlations sometimes exhibit large artifacts that may hamper the subsequent analyses. We analyzed such artifacts with a combination of NMR measurements and simulation. We found that particularly the lowest CPMG frequency (νcpmg) can also introduce large artifacts into amide 1H–15N and aromatic 1H–13C correlations whose 15N/13C resonances are very close to the carrier frequencies. The simulation showed that the off-resonance effects and miscalibration of the CPMG π pulses generate artifact maxima at resonance offsets of even and odd multiples of νcpmg, respectively. We demonstrate that a method once introduced into the rd experiments for molecules having residual dipolar coupling significantly reduces artifacts. In the method the 15N/13C π pulse phase in the U-element is chosen between x and y. We show that the correctly adjusted sequence is tolerant to miscalibration of the CPMG π pulse power as large as ±10% for most amide 15N and aromatic 13C resonances of proteins.

The intrinsic flexibility of glycans complicates the study of their structures and dynamics, which are often important for their biological function. NMR has provided insights into the conformational, dynamic and recognition features of glycans, but suffers from severe chemical shift degeneracy. We employed labelled glycans to explore the conformational behaviour of a β(1-6)-Glc hexasaccharide model through residual dipolar couplings (RDCs). RDC delivered information on the relative orientation of specific residues along the glycan chain and provided experimental clues for the existence of certain geometries. The use of two different aligning media demonstrated the adaptability of flexible oligosaccharide structures to different environments.
