In solids: anisotropic contributions (<3cos

For large (M
r

r
> ~10's kHz), with all
orientations of the nucleus present at any one time, give rise to broad,
powder-like NMR spectra which are an envelope of the individual orientational
frequency dependent lines.

The structure suggests that the activity of

is tightly connected to its oligomeric state. An intact
oligomer should not be active.

Optimum Levels of Exchangeable Protons in
Perdeuterated Proteins for Proton Detection
in MAS Solid-State NMR Spectroscopy:
A study at 24 kHz spinning
By the way: there are as many
exchangeable sites in the side chains of
the 20 aa as in the backbone!
