Microfluidics for Protein Crystallization
We employ the PhaseChip, a (poly)dimethylsiloxane (PDMS) microfluidic device, for statistical studies of protein crystal nucleation. The PhaseChip is designed to decouple nucleation and growth of protein crystals and so improve their yield and quality. Two layers of fluidic channels containing salt reservoirs and nanoliter-sized wells for protein drops in oil are separated by a thin PDMS membra...
متن کاملHigh throughput pH optimization of protein crystallization.
Most high throughput structural proteomics centers use the sitting-drop method to obtain diffracting crystals for three-dimensional (3D) structure determination of biological macromolecules by x-ray crystallography. Although several robotic systems are available for dispensing the initial sitting-drop screening conditions, generally they are not used for optimization of crystallization conditio...
متن کاملProtein crystallization
This essay is about the crystallization of proteins. Since the first published observation of crystallizing proteins about 160 years ago, protein crystal growth has developed into an extensive research field with many applications, for instance in the pharmaceutical industry. In this report, an overview of the unique physical-chemical characteristics of protein molecules, their properties in so...
متن کاملFusion-protein-assisted protein crystallization.
Fusion proteins can be used directly in protein crystallization to assist crystallization in at least two different ways. In one approach, the `heterologous fusion-protein approach', the fusion partner can provide additional surface area to promote crystal contact formation. In another approach, the `fusion of interacting proteins approach', protein assemblies can be stabilized by covalently li...
متن کاملHigh-throughput protein purification and quality assessment for crystallization.
The ultimate goal of structural biology is to understand the structural basis of proteins in cellular processes. In structural biology, the most critical issue is the availability of high-quality samples. "Structural biology-grade" proteins must be generated in the quantity and quality suitable for structure determination using X-ray crystallography or nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectrosc...
