Sažetak
Protein backbone H-bonds (>N–H···O–C<) show relationships between NMR h3JNC' couplings measured in solution and H-bond geometry parameters seen in X-ray crystal structures. Assuming that the solution and crystal structure of protein backbone is the same, the h3JNC' couplings can be calibrated to provide good estimates of both angular and radial H-bond parameters in a solution. The crucial premise of equality between the solution and the crystal structure of protein backbone we validated on the level of the NH-bonds orientation, by comparing the orientations inferred from X-ray crystal structures with the solution ones determined from NMR residual dipolar couplings.
