For structural investigations of proteins or RNA or DNA using liquid-state NMR spectroscopy, isotopically labeled samples are generally required. Typically, samples should be enriched with 15N and/or 13C isotopes. These labeled biomolecules must be prepared in advance by the visiting scientist. The Facility provides expert advice on optimal isotope-labeling strategies, including recommendations for expression systems, labeling schemes, and sample preparation protocols suitable for the intended NMR experiments.
Facility support commonly includes instrument setup, data acquisition, and data analysis, depending on the user’s level of expertise and project requirements. Additionally, training sessions can be arranged to help visiting scientists gain proficiency in NMR data collection and interpretation.
Access to the Facility can be obtained either through a physical visit or via sample mail-in for remote measurements.
Researchers are strongly encouraged to contact the Facility staff, Christian Richter and Frank Löhr, prior to submitting a proposal, in order to discuss project details and ensure that experimental plans align optimally with available services and instrumentation.
