Hi Soumya, The data look quite convincing. The pattern formed by your order parameter trace seems to match the patterns in your base R2 and NOE data. So this is a very good sign. There is a bit more variability in your order parameters compared to the base data which could indicate that the bond vector orientations in some parts might be slightly skewed. But I don't have the base numbers to carefully check and see it the S2 variability matches trends and variations in your 2-field strength base data - that is something you need to do to be sure yourself. Any points you find strange, you should go back to the base relaxation data and your spectra and see if you can see anything strange (peak overlap or truncation or other artifacts when you drop noise level to the baseplane). You may find that certain peaks should not be included. You can also look back at your relax log file and see if the AIC model selection results are reasonable (http://dx.doi.org/10.1023/A:1021902006114). Also look at the model elimination results in the log file (http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s10858-006-9007-z). You should also check in that log for all warning messages to be sure that relax is not warning you of a major problem. Anyway, you should be pretty close to having your final analysis and publishable data (after carefully auditing all your data points). Don't forget the BMRB export using the 'File->Export for BMRB deposition' menu item and BMRB submission via the ADIT-NMR system at http://www.bmrb.wisc.edu/deposit/ for the data you will publish - so that you have a BMRB deposition number for your paper. For citing relax, you could use the compact single citation notation for the back-to-back publication as - d'Auvergne, E. J. and Gooley, P. R. (2008). Optimisation of NMR dynamic models. J. Biomol. NMR, 40(2), 107-133. Regards, Edward On 11 April 2014 07:26, Soumya <NO-REPLY.INVALID-ADDRESS@xxxxxxx> wrote:
Follow-up Comment #2, sr #3127 (project relax): Hi Edward, The Lipari-Szabo order parameter calculations went to plan and the results mostly look like they should. I am quite curious about sudden drops in the S2 values (see attached "S2 only Eddie"; relevant columns highlighted in red). I have a structure that has very short secondary structure elements separated by intervening loops. For example, beta hairpin followed by a transient helix. The excursions in S2 correspond to these loops. Do these sudden drops in S2 make sense in the context of what I have described? Or are they unusual in your experience? I guess this all comes about since I have not done any model-free analysis before and don't have a feel for what these data should look like given a particular structure. By looking at a Google image search my data seem okay, but I'd rather have an expert opinion from you.
