DnaE intein from Nostoc punctiforme (Npu) is one of naturally occurring split inteins, which has robust protein splicing activity. Highly efficient trans-splicing activity of NpuDnaE intein could widen various biotechnological applications. However, structural basis of the efficient protein splicing activity is poorly understood. As a first step toward better understanding of protein trans-splicing mechanism, we present the backbone and side-chain resonance assignments of a single chain variant NpuDnaE intein as determined by triple resonance experiments with [(13)C,(15)N]-labeled protein.
