Chemical shifts of selectively labeled TTR samples

TTR-labeled amyloid Carbonyl peak (ppm) Fraction of total Ave. random coil (ppm)
Ile-1-13C native dry 174.6 ± 0.2 0.27 174.7
172.3 ± 0.2 0.73
Ile-1-13C amyloid dry 172.5 ± 0.2
Ile-1-13C amyloid wet 172.4 ± 0.2
Phe-1-13C native 172.3 ± 0.2 174.1
Phe-1-13C amyloid dry 172.3 ± 0.2
Phe-1-13C amyloid wet 172.3 ± 0.2
Tyr-1-13C native dry 173.4 ± 0.2 0.73 174.2
171.9 ± 0.2 0.27
Tyr-1-13C amyloid 172.8 ± 0.2

Ratio of integrated carbonyl peak intensities for wet amyloid samples divided by dry samples was 0.72 for Phe-1-13C and 0.78 for Ile-1-13C labeled samples. Deconvolution of the carbonyl peaks for native Tyr-1-13C and Ile-1-13C samples showed two peaks as listed.
