Re: [ccp4bb] Can nucleoprotein complex inhibit EtBr binding?

2015-02-13 Thread Sylvia Fanucchi
What is the charge on your protein? If it is a very positively charged protein it may not enter the gel. I have found this before in EMSAs but normally at low protein concentrations it still enters the gel only at the higher concs it does not. I had to change protein to DNA ratio and also the pe

Have you tried adding a detergent such as SDS to your cells when you lyse them? This in my experience helps improve the soluble fraction significantly although it may lead to downstream problems with removal of the detergent. From: xaravich ivan [mailto:xaravich.i...@gmail.com] Sent: 17 October

by rotating either the peptide or the carbonyl, 2 dots appear. What do these 2 separate dots represent? I'm assuming they both should be in the allowed regions of the plot but I'm wondering how they relate specifically to the psi and phi angles of the peptide concerned? Best regards Sylvi
