A systematic study on the effect of protonation and deuteration on electron spin Tm/T2 in a cellular context†
Abstract
In recent years, DEER experiments in pulsed EPR have garnered interest for their precise distance distribution insights in cellular and buffer setups. These measurements linked to electron spin Tm/T2 values of the labelled sample are impacted by the cellular environment being fully protonated or deuterated, as demonstrated in the present study.
