Hi Giulliana, You can check our general protocol for TEV digestion (http://www.accelagen.com/TurboTEV-protocol.htm). Once you mixed TEV with protein solution, let it sit for digestion. No shaking or rocking. We found shaking or rocking sometimes reduce the efficiency. Some constructs jus

Hi, as I understand your question, you're asking whether the EM density values in a cryo-EM map ('MRC' format) would be expected to be comparable with the corresponding electron density values in a CCP4 XRD map obtained by FT of the map coefficients from an MTZ X-ray reflexion file at the same nomi

Hey Giulliana, does your protein buffer contain high imidazole concentrations ( > 150 mM)? If so you should try to exchange the buffer before cleavage, since the TEV protease tends to precipitate at higher imidazole concentrations. Schara > Am 02.05.2015 um 19:56 schrieb Giulliana Rangel : >

Hi, I have used tev protease for tag cleavage during dialysis. In my case always tev got precipitated not my protein. And cleavage was always complete. I havE checked on the sds - page as wel. On 2 May 2015 23:27, "Giulliana Rangel" wrote: > Dear all, > > I'd like some help about my protein cause

If for both a mtz density and mrc map I set the contour level as 0.15, does the 015 has the comparable significance for the mtz density and mrc map? Smith
