Fluorine NMR is a useful tool to probe protein folding, conformation and local topology owing to the sensitivity of the chemical shift to the local electrostatic environment. As an example we make use of (19)F NMR and 3-fluorotyrosine to evaluate

Expressed protein ligation (EPL) allows semisynthesis of a target protein with site-specific incorporation of probes or unnatural amino acids at its N or C termini. Here, we describe the protocol that our lab has developed for incorporating fluorotyrosines (F(n)Ys) at

Journal of the American Chemical Society, 131(6), 2054-2055 (2009-01-29)
Solution NMR studies of protein structure and dynamics using fluorinated amino acid probes are a valuable addition to the repertoire of existing (13)C, (15)N, and (1)H experiments. Despite the numerous advantages of the (19)F nucleus in NMR, protein studies are
