Use of PCSs to distinguish conformational states. The paramagnetic center (small black circle) is attached to a part of a protein that exists in two conformations. The nucleus (large gray circle) experiences a distinct PCS in each state because the distance to the center (double-pointed arrows) and the orientation relative to the direction of the anisotropic component of the magnetic susceptibility tensor (transparent shapes) differ.
