CPMG relaxation dispersion NMR experiments have emerged as a powerful method to characterize protein minor states that are in exchange with a visible dominant conformation, and have lifetimes between ~0.5 and 5 milliseconds (ms) and populations greater than 0.5%. The structure of the minor state can, in favorable cases, be determined from the parameters provided by the CPMG relaxation dispersion experiments. Here, we go through the intricacies of setting up these powerful CPMG experiments
