RESUMO
Cross-relaxation effects are demonstrated between the imino protons and other protons in yeast tRNAPhe and H2O. A detailed examination has been made of the observed relaxation rate of the proton resonance at 11.8 ppm from DSS as a function of the D2O content in the solvent. This result, as well as the size and number of observed nuclear Overhauser effects, suggests that dipolar magnetization transfer between solvent H2O, amino, imino, and other tRNA protons may dominate the relaxation processes of the imino protons at low temperature. At higher temperatures the observed relaxation rate is dominated by chemical exchange. The selective nuclear Overhauser effects are shown to be an important aid in resonance assignments. By these means we were able to identify tow protons from the wobble base pair GU4 at 11.8 ppm and 10.4 ppm.
