<div><span>Some features /advantages of the ABACUS protocol:</span></div>
*<span><span>  </span></span>It does not rely on sequential connectivities from less sensitive experiments such as HNCACB indispensable for most traditional sequential assignment procedures;
*Inter-residue sequential connectivities are established mainly from NOE data, which saves time at a later stage in “troubleshooting” NOE and resonance assignments.;
*Probabilistic nature of the ABACUS procedure provides measure of reliability of assignments, and therefore one can obtain a partial, yet highly reliable assignment (even when the NMR data are sub-optimal) with the knowledge of where to focus manual intervention<font size="3">;</font>
*It can make use of partial spin-systems;
*It can efficiently identify manual errors in the input peak lists;

This, of course, is neither an exclusive or exhaustive list. For example, a simultaneous CN-NOESY could be recorded instead of three different ones listed in the table. In case there are very few aromatic residues in a protein, to collect only one aromatic spectrum, namely aromatic NOESY, could be enough for assignment of aromatic resonances. </div><div> </div><div>'''Table 1.'''

On the second step, completion of ''b''PB-fragments with side-chain aliphatic resonances as well as identification of additional spin-systems (lacking HN resonances) is performed using HCCH-TOCSY and 13C-NOESY spectra (see Figure 4.1B)  </div><div> </div><div>3.

Here ''T'' corresponds to amino acid type, and ''T''=A,R,D,…, and V, respectively.
