HP0892 (SwissProt/TrEMBL ID O25552) is a 90-residue conserved hypothetical protein from Helicobacter pylori strain 26695, with a calculated pI of 9.38 and a molecular mass of 10.41 kDa. It belongs to the Plasmid stabilization system protein family (PF05016) in the Pfam database. Proteins with sequence similarity to HP0892 exist in Vibrio choierae, Enterococcus faecalis, Campylobacter jejuni, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Haemophilus influenzae, Escherichia coli O157. Here we report the sequence-specific backbone resonance assignments of HP0892 using multidimentional heteronuclear NMR spectroscopy. About 97.0% (422/435) of the HN, N, CO, $C{\beta}$, $C{\alpha}$ resonances of 90 residues of HP0892 were assigned. On the basis of the resonance assignments, three helical regions and four strand regions were identified using the CSI program. This study is a prerequisite for calculating the solution structure of HP0892, and will be useful for studying its interaction with other molecules.

$OGL-20P^T$-358 is a novel 66 amino acid residue protein from the hyperthermophile Thermococcus thioreducens sp. nov., strain $OGL-20P^T$, which was collected from the wall of the hydrothermal black smoker in the Rainbow Vent along the mid-Atlantic ridge. This protein, which has no detectable sequence homology with proteins or domains of known function, has a calculated pI of 4.76 and a molecular mass of 8.2 kDa. We report here the backbone $^1H$, $^{15}N$, and $^{13}C$ resonance assignments of $OGL-20P^T$-358. Assignments are 97.5% (316/324) complete. Chemical shift index was used to determine the secondary structure of the protein, which appears to consist of primarily ${\alpha}$-helical regions. This work is the foundation for future studies to determine the three-dimensional solution structure of the protein.

HP0894 (SwissProt/TrEMBL ID O25554) is an 88-residue conserved hypothetical protein from Helicobacter pylori strain 26695 with a calculated pI of 8.5 and a molecular weight of 10.38 kDa. Proteins with sequence similarity to HP0894 exist in Vibrio choierae, Enterococcus faecalis, Campylobacter jejuni, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Haemophilus influenzae, Escherichia coli O157, etc. Here we report the sequence-specific backbone resonance assignments of HP0894. About 97.5% (418/429) of the HN, N, CO, $C{\alpha}$, $C{\beta}$ resonances of the 88 residues of HP0894 were assigned. On the basis of these assignments, three helical regions and four strand regions were identified using the CSI program. This study is a prerequisite for calculating the solution structure of HP0894, and studying its interaction with its substrates, if any, and/or with other proteins.

One of the small proteins from Helicobacter pylori, acyl carrier protein (ACP), was investigated by NMR. ACP is related to various cellular processes, especially with the biosynthesis of fatty acid. The basic NMR resonance assignment is a prerequisite for the validation of a heterologuous protein interaction with ACP in H.pylori. Here, the results of the backbone $^1H$, $^{15}N$, and $^{l3}C$ resonance assignments of the H. pylori ACP are reported using double- and triple-resonance techniques. About 97% of all of the $^1HN$, $^{15}N$, $^{13}CO$, $^{13}C{\alpha}$, and $^{13}C{\beta}$ resonances that cover 76 of the 78 non-proline residues are clarified through sequential- and specific-assignments. In addition, four helical regions were clearly identified on the basis of the resonance assignments.

One of the small proteins from Helicobacter pylori, HP1242, was investigated by the solution nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. HP1242 is known as a 76-residue conserved hypothetical protein and its function cannot be identified based on sequence homology. Here, the results of the backbone $^1H$, $^{15}N$, and $^{13}C$ resonance assignments of the HP1242 are reported using double- and triple-resonance techniques. About 95% of all of the $^1HN$, $^{15}N$, $^{13}CO$, $^{13}C{\alpha}$, and $^{13}C{\beta}$ resonances that cover 75 non- Proline residues of the 76 residues are clarified through sequential- and specific- assignments. In addition, three helical regions were clearly identified on the basis of the resonance assignments.

HP1492 is a NifU-like protein of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) and plays a role as a scaffold which transfer Fe-S cluster to Fe-S proteins like Ferredoxin. To understand how to bind to iron ion or iron-sulfur cluster, HP1492 was expressed and purified in Escherichia coli (E. coli). From the NMR measurement, we could carry out the sequence specific backbone resonance assignment of HP1492. Approximately 91% of all resonances could be assigned unambiguously. By analyzing results of CSI and TALOS from NMR data, we could predict the secondary structure of HP1492, which consists of three ${\alpha}$-helices and three ${\beta}$-sheets. This study is an essential step towards the structural characterization of HP1492.

HP0827 has two RNP motif which is a very common protein domain involved in recognition of a wide range of ssRNA/DNA.We acquired 3D NMR spectra of HP0827 which shows well dispersed and homogeneous signals which allows us to assign 98% of all $^1H_N$, $^{15}N$, $^{13}C_{\alpha}$, $^{13}C_{\beta}$ and $^{13}C$=O resonances and 90% of all sidechain resonances. The sequence-specific backbone resonance assignment of HP0827 can be used to gain deeper insights into the nucleic acids binding specificity of HP0827 in the future study. Here, we report secondary structure prediction of HP0827 derived from NMR data. Additionally, ssRNA/DNA binding assay studies was also conducted. This study might provide a clue for exact function of HP0827 based on structure and sequence.

t ENOD40B, a plant peptide hormone, was doubly labeled with C-13 and N-15 by recombinant production in Escherichia coli. The peptide was prepared by affinity chromatography followed by protease cleavage and reverse-phase chromatography. To elucidate the mode of action against its receptor, sucrose synthase, we proceeded to assign the backbone and side-chain resonances using a set of double and triple resonance experiments. This result will be used to determine the three-dimensional structure of the peptide at its bound state as well as to observe the chemical shift changes upon binding.

MRA1997 is a 76-residue conserved hypothetical protein of Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Ra, one of the most pathogenic bacterial species and the causative agent of tuberculosis. In this study, the sequence-specific backbone resonance assignment of MRA1997 was performed using NMR spectroscopy. Approximately 88.3% of the total resonances could be unambiguously assigned. By analyzing deviations of the $C{\alpha}$ and $C{\beta}$ chemical shift values, the secondary structure of MRA1997 was calculated. The result revealed that secondary structure of MRA 1997 consists of one ${\alpha}$-helix and five ${\beta}$-sheets. Our structural study will be a footstone towards the characterization of the three-dimensional structure of MRA1997.

Angiogenin is unique among angiogenic molecules in that it is a member of the pancreatic ribonuclease superfamily and, in fact, is a ribonucleolytic enzyme. Its enzymatic activity is extremely weak compared to that of the digestive RNases but is critical for its capacity to induce neovascularization. In this study, we completed the backbone resonance assignment of bovine angiogenin using triple resonance NMR experiments of $^{15}N\;and/or\;^{13}C$ isotope labeled protein and investigated the chemical shift variation upon binding with inhibitor phosphate ion and determine the phosphate binding site.
