In this report, the use of 13C direct detection has been pursued in 2D experiments (13C-13C COSY, 13C-13C COCAMQ, 13C-13C NOESY) to detect broad lines in nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of paramagnetic metalloproteins. The sample is a monomeric oxidized copper, zinc superoxide dismutase. Thanks to direct detection probeheads, cryogenic technology, and implementation of 13C band-selective homodecoupling, many broadened signals were detected. Proton signals for the same residues escaped detection in 1H and 1H-15N HSQC experiments because of the broadening. Only the 13C signals which experience large contact coupling escaped detection, i.e., the 13C nuclei of the metal coordinated histidines. Otherwise, nuclei as close to copper(II) as 4 A can be detected. Paramagnetic-based restraints can in principle be used for solution structure determination of paramagnetic metalloproteins and in copper(II) proteins in particular. The present study is significant also for the study of large diamagnetic proteins for which proton relaxation makes proton-based spectroscopy not adequate.
