Polarization Inversion Spin Exchange at the Magic Angle (PISEMA) high-resolu-tion solid-state NMR techniques can be used to investigate the influence of local chain dynamics on cooperative chain motions between the OCH3 protons of PMMA and the aromatic protons of PVPh [45,47]. The 2D experimental...

D Correlation Spectroscopy. A simple, quahtative approach has been described for the determination of membrane protein secondary structure and topology in lipid bilayer membranes." The new approach is based on the observation of wheel-like resonance patterns in the NMR H- N/ N polarization inversion with spin exchange at the magic angle (PISEMA) and H/ N HETCOR spectra of membrane proteins in oriented lipid bilayers. These patterns, named Pisa wheels, have been previously shown to reflect helical wheel projections of residues that are characteristic of a-helices associated with membranes. This study extends the analysis of these patterns to P-strands associated with membranes and demonstrates that, as for the case of a-helices, Pisa wheels are extremely sensitive to the tilt, rotation, and twist of P-strands in the membrane and provide a sensitive, visually accessible, qualitative index of membrane protein secondary structure and topology.
