CryoTong™ – Long
ApplicationsCrystal transfer under cryo temperature
FeaturesArtery clamp style closure30 seconds of cryo temperature180 mm length
Description
The CryoTong is a tool used to manually transfer a crystal mounted on a CrystalCap™ from liquid nitrogen to a magnetic base in a goniometer head positioned in a cryogenic stream, and then back to liquid nitrogen. The one-piece, compact CryoTong is available in two lengths. The long CryoTong is approximately 180 mm in overall length. The artery clamp style maintains the CryoTong in the closed position until the clamp is squeezed, which opens the opposing heads. The heads are non-magnetic stainless steel. The handle is magnetic stainless steel. The inside of the head is machined to closely surround the CrystalCap with loop and crystal in place. A small retaining lip is machined into the lower portion of the head to prevent the CrystalCap from slipping out of the CryoTong when the tool is in the closed position. The CryoTong can maintain the temperature of the crystal at -160°C for up to 30 seconds during room temperature crystal transfers. Choose the proper CryoTong size based upon the pin length required by the configuration of the x-ray data collection hardware used. The 18 mm CryoTong (HR5-112) is to be used with the CrystalCap HT and any other CrystalCap configured for 18 mm.HR5-114 Long CryoTong 18 mm, 180° features the head in alignment with the handle of the CryoTong.

Vial Clamp™ – Straight
ApplicationsVial support and manipulation
FeaturesStraight end tipHemostat style closureDescription
The Vial Clamp™ – Straight is a chrome plated, hemostat style tool. It has a tip shaped to hold the storage vial of all the CrystalCap Systems™ straight when the clamp is closed. The clamp can be locked using the hemostat style closure. This clamp makes it easy to dip the storage vial into liquid nitrogen for crystal storage. The complete length of the clamp is straight, with an overall length of 195 mm. When the vial is placed in the clamp, the length of it is positioned perpendicular, 90° to the length of the clamp.

CrystalWand™ Magnetic
ApplicationsCrystalCap Magnetic & CrystalCap Copper Magnetic handling toolDescription
The CrystalWand Magnetic is designed to be used exclusively with the CrystalCap Magnetic, CrystalCap Copper Magnetic, and CrystalCap HT systems during transfer of the caps from the vial to the goniometer head and from the goniometer to the vial. The 6 1/2” (165 mm) long chrome plated steel wand features a plastic housing enclosing a spring tensioned plunger that when depressed, moves a non-magnetic steel platform away from the magnet housed in the end of the wand. This causes the steel CrystalCap to detach from the wand and be placed readily into the vial or the CryoTong™. When the platform is retracted, the wand securely holds the steel CrystalCap Magnetic. The CrystalWand Magnetic 45° (McMiken Tool) offers the same functionality but is bent at a 45° angle at approximately 2.5 cm from the magnet end.HR4-729 CrystalWand Magnetic, StraightHR4-315 CrystalWand Magnetic, 45° (McMiken Tool)

Vial Clamp™ – Curved
ApplicationsVial support & manipulation
FeaturesCurved end tipHemostat style closureDescription
The Vial Clamp – Curved is a chrome plated, hemostat style tool. It has a tip shaped to hold the storage vial of all the CrystalCap Systems at an angle when the clamp is closed. The clamp can be locked using the hemostat style closure. The end of the clamp, where the vial is held, is curved at either a 45°/135° or 110°/ 70° angle. When the vial is placed in the clamp, the length of it is positioned to the clamp at either of those same angles. The overall length of each clamp is the same, 195 mm.HR4-671 Vial Clamp – Curved 45°/135°HR4-672 Vial Clamp – Curved 110°/70°

Hampton蛋白质结晶捞针（结晶环）18 mm Mounted CryoLoop™

Applications

Cryocrystallography

Features

		Adjustable loop orientation
		Synthetic CryoLoop on adjustable stainless steel MicroTube
		MicroTube specially engineered with EasySnap notches
		20 micron diameter nylon CryoLoop

Description
Similar to the Mounted CryoLoop™ in design and function, the Adjustable Mounted CryoLoop allows one to manipulate and orient the CryoLoop to multiple, unique positions previously unattainable with typical cryo setups. The Adjustable Mounted CryoLoop is a 20 micron diameter synthetic loop mounted inside a malleable stainless steel sleeve, which in turn, is mounted inside the EasySnap MicroTube™.

Using a specially designed L-shaped tool (HR5-902) with a positioning notch, one can manipulate the angle and orientation of the CryoLoop by bending and adjusting the angle of the malleable stainless steel insert which holds the CryoLoop. The Adjustable Mounted CryoLoop may be positioned several times. Note: Repeated manipulation will fatigue the sleeve which can lead to failure of the sleeve. The Adjustable Mounted CryoLoop is designed to work with the CrystalCap System components.

The MicroTube is 24 mm in length and is specially engineered with EasySnap™ notches at the 10, 12, 14, 18, and 21 mm measures. To obtain the desired length of MicroTube, simply snap the MicroTube at the desired length and stake it to the CrystalCap™ Magnetic or CrystalCap™ Copper Magnetic. These nylon loops show minimal diffraction, are thin for fast freezing, strong, and aerodynamic.

Most data collection geometries prefer or require a 22 mm length between the base of the cap and the beam. For a 22 mm overall length using the CrystalCap, CrystalCap ALS, CrystalCap ALS HT and CrystalCap SPINE HT, snap the MicroTube at the second notch from the bottom, creating an 18 mm MicrozTube lenghth and secure to the CrystalCap using epoxy or similar adhesive. For a 22 mm over length using the CrystalCap Copper, CrystalCap Copper HT, CrystalCap ALS Copper HT snap the MicroTube at the fifth notch from the bottom (notch closest to the CryoLoop) and secure to the CrystalCap using epoxy or similar adhesive.

The HR5-902 Tool for Adjustable Mounted CryoLoop is not included with the Adjustable Mounted CryoLoop and must be purchased as a separated item.

Hampton  MembFac • Crystal Screen Lite • MembFac HT

Description
MembFac is a highly effective sparse matrix screen specifically designed as a preliminary screen for the crystallization of membrane proteins. MembFac is based upon the highly effective biased sparse matrix methodology. The MembFac screen matrix is optimized for the crystallization of membrane proteins.

MembFac contains 48 unique reagent formulations. With this set of 48 conditions, numerous chemicals and chemical combinations are utilized, allowing one to evaluate a large variety of potential crystallization conditions. MembFac covers a broad pH range between 4 and 9.

The Rationale
The basic rationale of MembFac is to perform a sparse matrix screen while changing the detergent dimension because detergents play an important factor in the crystallization of membrane proteins. A MembFac screen is to be completed for each detergent. Detergent screens are available separately.

The Method
The membrane protein of interest is first isolated in the detergent which gives the highest stability and activity. The protein concentration should be approximately 10 to 20 mg/ml and the detergent concentration should be only slightly above the CMC. The sample is then set against MembFac, using all 48 solutions plus the screening detergent(s) of choice. The screening detergent concentration should be approximately one to three times the CMC. Hence, for each detergent screened, one would utilize approximately 1 to 2 mg of sample.

The MembFac protocol was used to crystallize membrane proteins including SQR, fumerate: quinone oxireductase, LHII, and LHCII.

Crystal Screen Lite is a sparse matrix of trial crystallization reagent conditions based upon the Crystal Screen™.³ The primary screen variables are salt, pH, and precipitant (salts, polymers, volatile organics, and non-volatile organics).²Crystal Screen Lite differs from the original Crystal Screen kit in that the primary precipitant reagents are one-half the concentration of that used in the original Crystal Screen formulation. The secondary salts, ions, and buffers remain at the original Crystal Screen concentration. Reducing the primary concentration of the primary precipitant results in a screen which is “more gentle” on the sample and typically produces much less precipitate conditions than the original Crystal Screen.

MembFac contains 48 unique reagents, 10 ml each.

MembFac HT contains 1 ml each of all 48 reagents from MembFac and reagents 1-48 from Crystal Screen Lite in a single Deep Well block format.

Ready-to-use reagents are sterile filtered and formulated with ultra-pure Type 1 water, using the highest purity salts, polymers, organics and buffers. Individual reagents are available through the Hampton Research Custom Shop.

Description

Solubility & Stability Screen is designed to assist in the identification of solution conditions which promote protein solubility and stability, and minimize protein precipitation. Solubility & Stability Screen is a solubility screen, a stability screen, and may also be used as an additive screen in the presence of a crystallization reagent.

The Hampton Research Solubility and Stability Screen can evaluate protein solubility, stability and crystallization in the presence of 94 different chemical additives sampling 17 different classes of reagents plus two controls.

Protein solubility and stability are universally required in a wide range of applications, including general biochemical studies, the preparation of proteins in pharmaceuticals, structural biology and crystallization.1-11The preparation of a concentrated, soluble and stable protein sample can often be a difficult task as proteins often aggregate, precipitate or denature.

Thermofluor (also known as Differential Scanning Fluorimetry, DSF and Protein Thermal Shift) provides a rapid, convenient and effective means of identifying subsaturating solution conditions that may also correlate with protein heterogeneity and poor crystallization outcomes.12

Protein solubility and stability is affected by many different chemical factors including pH, buffer type, chemical additives and excipients. pH and buffer type are dominant protein solubility and stability variables and can be evaluated and optimized using the Hampton Research Slice pH kit HR2-070. Slice pH evaluates protein solubility, stability and crystallization versus 20 different buffers over the pH range 3.5-9.6. Chemical additives influencing protein solubility and stability can be evaluated using the Solubility & Stability Screen.

It is widely accepted that protein solubility and stability can be increased by the use of chemical additives.5,15Seventeen classes of reagents are sampled by the Solubility & Stability Screen and each of these classes has been reported as important in improving sample solubility and stability.2-11

The Solubility & Stability Screen is a set of 94 high purity reagents formulated in high purity water (NCCLS/ASTM Type 1+) at 25°C and are 0.22 micron sterile filtered. The 94 solubility and stability reagents are formulated at 2 to 10 times their recommended working concentration. The remaining two reagents are water and a negative (TCA) control. A water control demonstrates the effect of diluting sample as well as sample buffer concentration. TCA, the negative control, demonstrates total sample precipitation, loss of sample solubility and loss of sample stability. The effects of the Solubility & Stability reagents can be compared with this negative control to assist in the identification of reagents promoting sample solubility and stability. 500 microliters of each reagent is supplied in a sterile 96 well polypropylene Deep Well block. The Solubility & Stability Screen reagents are compatible with the sitting or hanging drop vapor diffusion, microbatch, free interface diffusion, sandwich drop vapor diffusion, and dialysis crystallization methods utilizing water soluble reagents.
