Abstract
Solid-state NMR spectroscopy (SSNMR) is an established and invaluable tool for the study of amyloid fibril structure with atomic-level detail. Optimization of the homogeneity and concentration of fibrils enhances the resolution and sensitivity of SSNMR spectra. Here, we present a fibrillization and fibril processing protocol, starting from purified monomeric ?-synuclein, that enables the collection of high-resolution SSNMR spectra suitable for site-specific structural analysis. This protocol does not rely on any special features of ?-synuclein and should be generalizable to any other amyloid protein.
