I would like to point out that HSQC could still be applied even in such a large protein. TROSY-HSQC has been successful in improving peaks in spectra of large protein. Typically the sample would need to be deuterated to see the full effect of TROSY, but even a partial deuteration can improve sig

Hi SAXS can be a right tool. However, how big is "short peptide linker"? Check Nature paper by Askarieh G. and Hedhammar M. for non-His pH sensor. cheers Alex Am 06.12.2010 um 17:59 schrieb Daniel Jin : Dear CCP4 colleagues, We have a protein that is composed of two domains connected

Daniel, You'll probably have to monitor pH changes through size changes of your protein, provided the structural changes will indeed cause size changes. You said "easy", so that probably rules out Small-Angle X-Ray Scattering (SAXS), but that would be the highest-resolution method. You can try

Dear CCP4 colleagues,   We have a protein that is composed of two domains connected by a short peptide linker. We have some indirect evidence showing that the two domains may somehow move against each other when exposed to different pH. It is unlikely to have any obvious secondary structure c
