Conformation of the Glycosidic Linkage in a Disaccharide Investigated by Double-Quantum Solid-State NMR

Probing Segmental Mobility in the Cyanogenic Glycoside Amygdalin by 13C Solid-State NMR

“…In our previous studies of carbohydrates in the solid state we have employed both NMR spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography techniques. To obtain information on molecular structure and dynamics, we will continue to utilize these complementary methods and, in the case of solid-state NMR, develop novel experiments and analytical procedures for a continued and focused investigation of carbohydrate systems being part of or models for those in biological systems such as glycolipids or glycoproteins.…”

Symmetry‐Based Pulse Sequences in Magic‐Angle Spinning Solid‐State NMR

“…44 The same experiment has also been demonstrated on carbohydrates. 77, 78 The experiment may be extended to allow the determination of 15 N-13 C-13 C-15 N torsional angles in peptides and proteins. 79 -81 If double-quantum recoupling sequences are applied to single-quantum coherences in clusters of more than two spins, triple-quantum coherences are developed.…”

Homonuclear Zero-Quantum Recoupling in Fast Magic-Angle Spinning Nuclear Magnetic Resonance

“…Methods exist for the determination of internuclear distances and molecular torsional angles (22)(23)(24)(25)(26)(27)(28)(29)(30). These methods have been applied to noncrystalline biological macromolecules (31,32) providing otherwise inaccessible information.…”
