Comparison of MQ CSM(15N)/CSM(1H) CCR rates and SQ 15N exchange contribution. The dependence of ΔRMQ(exchange) = 2RCSM(15N)/CSM(1H) rates upon the exchange time scale, kex = 1/τex, and the 1H and 15N chemical shift modulations, ΔωH and ΔωN, respectively, is shown with the thin curves calculated from equation 8 in the study by Wang and Palmer[93] (ΔωN = 2 ppm at 600 MHz, p1 = 0.9 and ΔωH/ΔωN ratios equal to 0.2, 0.5, 1,2, 5). The plotted results would be multiplied by −1 if ΔωH and ΔωN had opposite signs. The bold curve shows the exchange contribution to SQ 15N relaxation, Rex plotted versus log(kex/ΔωN).
