Use Urea - it does not interfere with gels etc. Additionally, you should consider covalent immobilization of protein X - using activated resins. Amine and carboxylic acid immobilization is common, however my all-time favorite is iodoacetamide-activated resin reacting with SH on the protein (if you

Hi Jacob Why not try with urea and for this type of studies I would probably use batch with the IMAC resin and not run the samples over a column. cheers Preben On 23/12/2010, at 16.11, Jacob Keller wrote: Dear Crystallographers, I am interested in doing a type of pull-down experiment

In my experience, either urea or guanidinium crashes out in gels. I can't remember--which one is it? I am thinking guanidinium. (If the answer to this email saves one grad student from the aggravation of such a phenomenon, it will have been worth it...) JPK On Thu, Dec 23, 2010 at 9:31 AM,
