BACKGROUNDThe determination of protein–protein interfaces is of crucial importance to understand protein function and to guide the design of compounds. To identify protein–protein interface by NMR spectroscopy,13C NMR paramagnetic shifts induced by freely diffusing 4-hydroxy-2, 2, 6, 6-tetramethyl-piperidine-1-oxyl (TEMPOL) are promising, because TEMPOL affects distinct13C NMR chemical shifts of the solvent accessible nuclei belonging to proteins of interest, while13C nuclei within the interior of the proteins may be distinguished by a lack of such shifts.METHODWe measured the13C NMR paramagnetic shifts induced by TEMPOL by recording13C–13C TOCSY spectra for ubiquitin in the free state and the complex state with yeast ubiquitin hydrolase1 (YUH1).RESULTSUpon complexation of ubiquitin with YUH1,13C NMR paramagnetic shifts associated with the protein binding interface were reduced by 0.05 ppm or more. The identified interfacial atoms agreed with the prior X-ray crystallographic data.CONCLUSIONSThe TEMPOL-induced13C chemical shift perturbation is useful to determine precise protein–protein interfaces.GENERAL SIGNIFICANCEThe present method is a useful method to determine protein–protein interface by NMR, because it has advantages in easy sample preparations, simple data analyses, and wide applicabilities.
