Popis: We investigated correlated μs-ms time scale motions of neighboring (13)C’─(15)N and (13)C(α)─(13)C(β) nuclei in both protonated and perdeuterated samples of GB3. The techniques employed, NMR relaxation due to cross-correlated chemical shift modulations, specifically target concerted changes in the isotropic chemical shifts of the two nuclei associated with spatial fluctuations. Field-dependence of the relaxation rates permits identification of the parameters defining the chemical exchange rate constant under the assumption of a two-site exchange. The time scale of motions falls into the intermediate to fast regime (with respect to the chemical shift time scale, 100 to 400 s(−1) range) for the (13)C’─(15)N pairs and into the slow to intermediate regime for the (13)C─α(13)C(β)pairs ( about 150 s(−1)) . Comparison of the results obtained for protonated and deuterated GB3 suggests that deuteration has a tendency to reduce these slow scale correlated motions, especially for the (13)C(α)─(13)C(β) pairs.
