✦ Synopsis
The computational tools necessary for making use of 1 H-1 H dipolar couplings in macromolecular structure refinement are presented. Potentials are described for direct refinement against 1 H-1 H dipolar couplings of known sign as well as of unknown sign. In addition, a multiple potential is developed for prochiral protons whose stereospecific assignments are unknown. The utility of direct 1 H-1 H dipolar coupling refinement is illustrated using the small protein ubiquitin. It is shown that direct 1 H-1 H dipolar coupling refinement leads to improvements in the precision, accuracy, and quality of the resulting structures.

By the application of an external electric field to a polar liquid the molecules are slightly nlignecl. The dipole-dipole interaction between the nuclear spins is then not averaged out and the NhlR spectrum is modified. Results are presented for nitrobenoene and 2.4-dimethylnitrot,enzene.
