[ccp4bb] DNA Protein co- Crystallization

2014-01-03 Thread venkatareddy dadireddy
Hi, I'm working on DNA binding protein, looking to co-crystallize protein- DNA complex and have no previous experience. Your suggestion would be very precious on the following queries. 1. My protein is 646 amino acid long and it exists as homodimer. It is also having around 20 amino acid

Dear Venkat, We recently solved a protein DNA complex structure and I had all the same queries as you have at the outset. We decided to use SPR as a techniques to study the interaction of the protein with the DNA and to use this to guide the choice of DNA for co-crystallisation. The work has

Dear All, For the question, I think for a protein-DNA interaction, the protein may interact with any sequences of DNA, which will give a lot of combination of protein-DNA sequence for crystallization screening.  Or do anyone regard to just try the crystallization of the protein-one specific
