Dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) is apowerful way to overcome the sensitivity limitation of magic-anglespinning (MAS) NMR experiments.However,the resolution of the DNP NMR spectra of proteins is compromised by severe line broadening associated with the necessity to perform experiments at cryogenic temperatures and in the presence of paramagnetic radicals.H igh-quality DNP-enhanced NMR spectra of the Acinetobacter phage 205 (AP205) nucleocapsid can be obtained by combining high magnetic field (800 MHz) and fast MAS (40 kHz). These conditions yield enhanced resolution and long coherence lifetimes allowing the acquisition of resolved 2D correlation spectra and of previously unfeasible scalar-based experiments.T his enables the assignment of aromatic resonances of the AP205 coat protein and its packaged RNA, as well as the detection of long-range contacts, which are not observed at room temperature,o pening new possibilities for structure determination.Dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) allows transfer of polarization from the unpaired electrons of ap aramagnetic center to the surrounding nuclei, enhancing the magic-anglespinning (MAS) NMR signals by several orders of magnitude. [1] Thetechnique has been successfully applied in various fields from chemistry and materials to structural and cell biology.H owever,d espite convincing demonstrations on fibrils, [2] membrane-embedded proteins, [3] virus capsids, [4] and whole-cell assemblies, [5] thes ensitivity enhancement provided by DNP on biological systems is always associated with an umber of issues.W hile high-resolution solid-state MAS NMR spectra of proteins can be nowadays obtained at temperatures above 273 K, the resolution of the DNP NMR spectra of proteins is compromised by severe line broadening associated with the necessity to perform experiments at cryogenic temperatures (at about 100 K) and in the presence of paramagnetic radicals.F urthermore,D NP spectra of protein samples are currently almost exclusively acquired at moderate magnetic fields (usually 9.4 T) for maximum DNP enhancements and using 3.2 mm rotors with MAS rates up to 15 kHz. Under these experimental conditions,t he lines are broadened by both homogeneous broadening,o wing to incomplete averaging of nuclear and hyperfine interactions, and inhomogeneous broadening,a rising from protein conformational disorder. [6] Thelack of resolution associated with the DNP enhancements is therefore amajor obstacle for the detailed structural study of uniformly labeled biomolecular samples.This limitation has been previously addressed by using increased temperatures (180-200 K) [7] and higher magnetic field strengths [8] at the expense of lower DNP enhancements, as well as by exploring improved sample preparation methods. [9] Whilst these initial attempts have shown the potential for improving resolution in DNP spectra, af urther improvement is imperative to take full advantage of the signal amplification potentially provided by DNP.O ne factor that holds promise is the MAS rate.T he availability of prob...
