Is absorbance at 205 nm not a possibility, Jack?

Emne: Re: [ccp4bb] Strategies for increasing Trp content of proteins

We have had success placing single trp on the outside of proteins, as weird as 
it sounds it works pretty well. If your protein is easy to express you can try 
a few choices.

If your protein is difficult to express, a fusion with a trp-positive domain or 
with gfp may be a better option.

There are many other options but their application is best considered with more 
information in hand

Dear CCP4BB,

We are working on a protein that has no Trp residues, which makes 
chromatography challenging due to the low absorbance at 280 nm (Abs 0.1% = 
0.104). Does anyone have experience using mutagenesis to increase the Trp 
content of proteins?

Thanks,

Jack Tanner
