The temperature dependence of C-13 chemical shifts are observed for the cyclooctanone arylhydrazones. The temperature-dependent chemical shifts for these derivatives are explained by postualating the existence of two equilibrating structures. In addition, the assignment between the $^{13}C$ signals of methylene carbon pairs can be done by application of the ${gamma}$ -substituent effect.

Bloom syndrome protein (BLM) is a pivotal RecQ helicase necessary for genetic stability through DNA repair processes. Our investigation focuses on the N-terminal region of BLM, which has been considered as an intrinsically disordered region (IDR). This IDR plays a critical role in DNA metabolism by interacting with other proteins. In this study, we performed triple resonance experiments of BLM_220-300 and presented the backbone chemical shifts. The secondary structure prediction based on chemical shifts of the backbone atoms shows the region is disordered. Our data could help further interaction studies between BLM_220-300 and its binding partners using NMR.

Hsp31 protein is one of the members of DJ-1 superfamily proteins and has a dimeric structure of which molecular weight (MW) is 62 kDa. The mutation of DJ-1 is closely related to early onset of Parkinson's disease. Hsp31 displays $Zn^{+2}$-binding activity and was first reported to be a holding chaperone in E. coli. Its additional glyoxalase III active has recently been characterized. Moreover, an incubation at $60^{\circ}C$ induces Hsp31 protein to form a high MW oligomer (HMW) in vitro, which accomplishes an elevated holding chaperone activity. The NMR technique is elegant method to probe any local or global structural change of a protein in responses to environmental stresses (heat, pH, and metal). Although the presence of the backbone chemical shifts (bbCSs) is a prerequisite for detailed NMR analyses of the structural changes, general HSQC-based triple resonance experiments could not be used for 62 kDa Hsp31 protein. Here, we prepared the per-deuterated Hsp31 and performed the TROSY-based triple resonance experiments for the bbCSs assignment. Here, detailed processes of per-deuteration and the NMR experiments are described for other similar NMR approaches.

The mannitol transporter Enzyme $II^{Mtl}$ of the bacterial phosphotransferase system has two cytoplasmic phosphoryl transfer domains $IIA^{Mtl}$ and $IIB^{Mtl}$. The two domains are linked by a flexible peptide linker in mesophilic bacterial strains, whereas they are expressed as separated domains in thermophilic strains. Here, we carried out backbone assignment of $IIA^{Mtl}$ from thermophilic Thermoanaerobacter Tencongensis using a suite of heteronuclear triple resonance NMR spectroscopy. We have completed 94% of the backbone assignment, and obtained secondary structural information based on torsion angles derived from the chemical shifts. $IIA^{Mtl}$ of Thermoanaerobacter Tencongensis is predicted to have six ${\beta}$ strands and six ${\alpha}$ helices, which is analogous to $IIA^{Mtl}$ of Escherichia coli.

Hoxc, or the Homeobox C cluster, is a group of genes that play a crucial role in embryonic development, particularly in patterning the body along the anterior-posterior axis. These genes encode transcription factors, which are proteins that bind to DNA and regulate the expression of other genes. Hoxc9 is specifically involved in the development of the skeletal system, nervous system, and adipose tissue. Hoxc9 overexpression has been linked to the development of various cancers such as leukemia and breast cancer. Here, we assigned the chemical shifts Hoxc9 DNA binding domain (DBD) using heteronuclear NMR techniques. The helical regions of Hoxc9 DBD correspond to the residues T200 - F213 (Helix I), T218 - L229 (Helix II), and T232 - K249 (Helix III). Our result would be helpful for studing the molecular interactions of the Hoxc9 DBD and other proteins.

Backbone $^1H$, $^{13}C$ and $^{15}N$ resonance assignments are presented for the anticodon binding domain (residues 557-674) of human glycyl-tRNA synthetase (GRS). Role of the anticodon binding domain (ABD) of GRS as an anticancer ligand has recently been reported and its role in other diseases like Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) and polymyositis have increased its interest. NMR assignments were completed using the isotope [$^{13}C/^{15}N$]-enriched protein and chemical shifts based secondary structure analysis with TALOS+ demonstrate similar secondary structure as reported in X-ray structure PDB 2ZT8, except some C-terminal residues. NMR signals from the N-terminal residues 557 to 571 and 590 to 614 showed very weak or no signals exhibiting dynamics or conformational exchange in NMR timescale.

HP1298 (Swiss-Prot ID ; P65108) is an 72-residue protein from Helicobacter pylori strain 26695. The function of HP1298 was identified as Translation initiation factor IF-l based on sequence homology, and HP1298 is included in IF-l family. Here, we report the sequence-specific backbone resonance assignments of HP1298. About 97% of all the $^{1}HN$, $^{15}N$, $^{13}C{\alpha}$, $^{13}C{\beta}$, and $^{13}CO$ resonances could be assigned unambiguously. We could predict the secondary structure of HP1298, by analyzing the deviation of the $^{13}C{\alpha}$ and $^{13}C{\beta}$ shemical shifts from their respective random coil values. Secondary structure prediction shows that HP1298 consists of six $\beta$-strands. This study is a prerequisite for determining the solution structure of HP1298 and investigating the structure-function relationship of HP1298. Assigned chemical shift can be used for the study on interaction between HP1298 and other Helicobacter pylori proteins.

HP0062 is an 86 residue hypothetical protein from Helicobacter pylori strain 26695. HP0062 was identified ESAT-6/WXG100 superfamily protein based on structure and sequence alignment and also contains leucine zipper domain sequence. Here, we report the sequence-specific backbone resonance assignment of HP0062. About 97.7% of all $^1H_N,\;^{15}N,\;^{13}C_{\alpha},\;^{13}C_{\beta}\;and\;^{13}C=O$ resonances were assigned unambiguously. We could predict the secondary structure of HP0062 by analyzing the deviation of the $^{13}C_{alpha}\;and\;^{13}C_{\beta}$ chemical shifts from their respective random coil values. Secondary structure prediction shows that HP0062 consist of two ${\alpha}$-helices. This study is a prerequisite for determining the solution structure of HP0062 and can be used for the study on interaction between HP0062 and DNA and other Helicobacter pylori proteins.
