Hi, I do have 10% glycerol in my buffers, and still the constructs come in the void volume. and I have sarkosyl in the lysis buffer. but none in the elution or dialysis buffer. So do I still need detergents please suggest. reg. Anita On Sat, Aug 27, 2011 at 12:13 AM, Pius Padayatti wrote: >

Hi All, I am working on a protein which has a membrane spanning region and as cytosolic domain.I have made various deletion constructs of the protein, so that I can have a crystallizable fragment. There is no homologues mentioned in the pdb for this protein. All of these constructs are purified

Try different detergents. Try 10% or more glycerol. Try adding ligands (if present/known). Try varying ionic strength and/or pH. Try giving more specifics so people on the board may be able to help you better. Bert On 3/23/11 1:51 PM, "gauri misra" wrote: The protein purifies nicely there is

The protein purifies nicely there is no problem in that. Just at the last step when it is concentrated it starts precipitating beyond a concentration of 1mg/ml. Already the purification buffers have the detergent. On Wed, Mar 23, 2011 at 1:44 PM, Kornelius Zeth < kornelius.z...@tuebingen.mpg.de> w
