Use of an extended set of 3D NOESY experiments for the structure determination of double-labelled proteins by NMR
A method for increasing the efficiency of NMR is proposed whereby a set of 3D NOESY experiments which employ heteronuclear labelling in both indirect dimensions are used to aid assignment of standard 3D <sup>15</sup>N- and <sup>13</sup>C-edited NOESY spectra. Using these expe...

The complementary experiments investigated are a 3D <sup>13</sup>C, <sup>15</sup>N-HSQC-NOESY-HSQC and 3D <sup>15</sup>N, <sup>15</sup>N-HSQC-NOESY-HSQC for use with 3D <sup>15</sup>N-edited NOESY and 3D <sup>13</sup>C, <sup>13</sup>C-HSQC-NOESY-HSQC for use with 3D <sup>13</sup>C-edited NOESY.
