Yes that is very true. But I assume true membrane proteins exclude high throughput :-) However the cytoplasmic part might be fine in this case and then I would just go for Sypro Orange. Jürgen On Jul 19, 2012, at 10:39 AM, Edwin Pozharski wrote: My understanding is that the advantage of the

My understanding is that the advantage of the thermofluor assay is that you can test many conditions rapidly unless of course you have some kind of high throughput CD spectrometer in mind. > If you have a CD available (not the one with music on it) you don't need a > dye just sufficient protein

If you have a CD available (not the one with music on it) you don't need a dye just sufficient protein and you can thermal denature your protein assuming it contains some secondary structure elements. Jürgen On Jul 19, 2012, at 4:26 AM, anita p wrote: Hi All, I want to use a thermofluor for t

Dear Anita, here is a link to a talk with recommended literature: http://thermofluor.org/resources/Maksel_Protein-Stability.pdf. Probably, you will find there the answers you need. I recommend to try several dyes if available, due to the different behaviour of proteins and no general rule for

Hi All, I want to use a thermofluor for the thermal shift assay. My proteins are cytoplasmic truncations of membrane protein. I have read about ANS, sypro-orange and CPM. Which is the once that is popularly used by the crystallographers for condition optimization for crystallization ?? I have read
