(113)Cd NMR Experiments Reveal an Unusual Metal Cluster in the Solution Structure of the Yeast Splicing Protein Bud31p**

Establishing the binding topology of structural zinc ions in proteins is an essential part of their structure determination by NMR spectroscopy.

Sumario:Establishing the binding topology of structural zinc ions in proteins is an essential part of their structure determination by NMR spectroscopy. Using (113)Cd NMR experiments with (113)Cd-substituted samples is a useful approach but has previously been limited mainly to very small protein domains. Here we used (113)Cd NMR spectroscopy during structure determination of Bud31p, a 157-residue yeast protein containing an unusual Zn(3)Cys(9) cluster, demonstrating that recent hardware developments make this approach feasible for significantly larger systems.
