| Abstract | It is shown that the paramagnetic properties of lanthanides can be exploited to obtain information on specific parts of a protein surface. Owing to the high affinity of coordinatively unsaturated lanthanide complexes for oxygen donors, carboxylate groups can be used as preferential targets for the interaction. The DO3A ligand is particularly useful in these studies, as it coordinates lanthanides in a heptadentate fashion, leaving two sites available for exogenous donors. A solution of a 15N-labeled sample protein, calbindin D9k (75 residues), was titrated with up to 200% of Gd(III)-DO3A complex, and an inversion recovery 15N-1H HSQC experiment was used to measure the paramagnetic contributions to the longitudinal relaxation rates of the amide protons. Relaxation data were used as distance constraints to estimate the number of interacting complexes and the occupancies of their binding sites. Four preferential interaction sites on the protein surface are found. Inspection of the various carboxylate side chains on the surface of the protein indicates that Gd(III)-DO3A interacts preferentially with carboxylate-rich regions, rather than with isolated carboxylates, suggesting the possibility of chelation of one Gd(III)-DO3A molecule by two carboxylate groups. Gd(III)-DO3A is thus a valuable semi-selective probe for clusters of negative charges on the protein surface. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
