Methyl ¹H single quantum CPMG

Module name​

"cpmg_ch3_1h_sq"

Description​

Measures methyl proton chemical exchange recorded on site-specifically 13CH3-labeled proteins in a highly deuterated background. Magnetization is initially anti-phase and is read out as anti-phase prior to ¹H detection. Resulting magnetization intensity after the CPMG block is calculated using the (6n)×(6n), two-spin matrix, where n is the number of states:

{ Ix(a), Iy(a), Iz(a), IxSz(a), IySz(a), IzSz(a), Ix(b), Iy(b), Iz(b), IxSz(b), IySz(b), IzSz(b), ... }
