Dear All
Sorry for non-crystallography query. I am working on
DNA binding protein, while mixing DNA with protein for
preparing Protein-DNA complex for crystallization,
protein is precipitating. pI of the protein is 9.3
and in 15 mM HEPES 7.0, 150mM NaCl and 5% glycerol.
Concentration of the protein used for mixing with DNA
is 8 mg/mL. DNA to protein molar ratio is 1.2. Please
advise me how to prevent precipitation. Is changing of
buffer pH and adding divalent cation like MgCl2 can
help in preventing precipitation?
Thanking You
