  • (16) Complete assignments were obtained for the backbone 1H, 15N and 13C resonances, using three-dimensional heteronuclear 1H NOE 1H-15N multiple-quantum coherence spectroscopy (3D-NOESY-HMQC) and three-dimensional heteronuclear total correlation 1H-15N multiple-quantum coherence spectroscopy (3D-TOCSY-HMQC) experiments on 15N-enriched HPr and an additional three-dimensional triple-resonance 1HN-15N-13C alpha correlation spectroscopy (HNCA) experiment on 13C, 15N-enriched HPr.
  • (17) Two technical developments, the advent of supercomputing as a routine tool in quantum solid-state material science and molecular dynamics on the one hand, and molecular biology on the other hand, have created--perhaps for the first time-the possibility of directly linking a more realistic description of the radiation field to observable events at biomolecular level.
  • (18) The structures of the new compounds were determined by chemical and spectroscopic methods, including two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance (2D NMR) techniques, especially 1H-detected heteronuclear multiple-bond multiple-quantum coherence.
  • (19) The constancy of the lifetime-normalized phosphorescence yield with apoazurin and with Trp-314 in alcohol dehydrogenase establishes that the intersystem crossing quantum yield is practically unaffected across the temperature range.

Sudden


Definition:

  • (a.) Hastly prepared or employed; quick; rapid.
  • (a.) Hasty; violent; rash; precipitate.
  • (adv.) Suddenly; unexpectedly.
  • (n.) An unexpected occurrence; a surprise.
