Article Title: A site-specific low-enrichment 15N, 13C isotope-labeling approach to unambiguous NMR spectral assignments in nucleic acids
Abstract: We demonstrate that base and sugar protons within a DNA oligomer can be assigned unambiguously following site-specific 15N, 13C isotope incorporation at levels as low as 1% enrichment. This simple and cost-effective methodology is demonstrated on the d(GGGTTCAGG) DNA sequence, which forms a dimeric G-quadruplex containing G·G·G·G tetrads sandwiched between G·(C-A) triads.
