  We investigate interactions between electrons and nuclear spins by using the
resistance (Rxx) peak which develops near filling factor n = 2/3 as a probe. By
temporarily tuning n to a different value, ntemp, with a gate, the Rxx peak is
shown to relax quickly on both sides of ntemp = 1. This is due to enhanced
nuclear spin relaxation by Skyrmions, and demonstrates the dominant role of
nuclear spin in the transport anomaly near n = 2/3. We also observe an
additional enhancement in the nuclear spin relaxation around n = 1/2 and 3/2,
which suggests a Fermi sea of partially-polarized composite fermions.
