Abstract
The relative intensity of Cα-C- cross-peaks in homonuclear 13C COSY spectra depends on the relaxation properties of Cα and C- spins, which, in the proximity of a paramagnetic center, are related to the metal-to-carbon distance. Their quantitative analysis has lead, for the cerium-substituted dicalcium protein, calbindin D9k, to the straightforward identification of peaks arising from metal-coordinating groups. The monodentate or bidentate metal binding mode of carboxylates was identified directly via NMR.I documenti in FLORE sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
