The 2‘-hydroxyl group in RNA plays an important structural role; it defines hydration in the minor groove, impacts thermodynamic stability of RNA, and often participates in RNA catalysis. To better study this important functional group in RNA, we describe a constant-time HMQC−IPAP−NOESY 3D NMR experiment. It simultaneously yields highly resolved13C-separated NOEs from ribose protons to the 2‘OH proton, as well as E.COSY-type measurement ofJC-OHcouplings, thereby permitting a quantitative study of the orientation of the 2‘OH proton in RNA. The observed NOE patterns indicate that the 2‘OH bonds in A-form helical RNA are primarily oriented toward the base domain, as further supported by small (1.3 ± 0.7 Hz)3JC1‘-2‘OHand relatively large (4.2 ± 0.7 Hz)3JC3‘-2‘OHcouplings. The constant-time HMQC−IPAP−NOESY is suitable for measurement of interactions of rapidly exchanging protons in proteins and nucleic acids.
