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.

Hampton蛋白结晶产品目录

Wizard Tube 
The Wizard™ Classic line of random sparse matrix screens is designed to increase your probability of producing crystals during the coarse screening phase when crystallizing biological macromolecules (proteins, nucleic acids, peptides, and combinations thereof).
The Wizard Classic reagents are proven to be a highly effective starting point in the screening of biological macromolecules. The Wizard Classic formulations include a large range of crystallants, buffers, and salts covering a broad range of crystallization space at pH levels from pH 4.5 to pH 10.5.Choose from Wizard Classic 1, 2, 3, or 4 non-overlapping formulations in matrix blocks or tubes.

Wizard Cubic LCP
The tools in the Wizard Cubic LCP (lipidic cubic phase) Kit enable researchers to prepare LCP-type crystallizations by hand. Ideal for low-protein experiments: effective protein volume for a single crystallization experiment is about 80 nanoliters. Wizard Cubic LCP Kit tools work especially well when traditional methods have failed to yield crystals. Lipidic cubic phase has worked well for the crystallization of 7TM membrane proteins (proteins with seven transmembrane helices). Four out of six GPCRs (G-protein coupled receptors), an important membrane protein class, and several microbial 7TM proteins have been crystallized using the LCP approach.

CRYO (I、II)
The Wizard Cryo™ line of random sparse matrix screens is designed for scientists who want to avoid the additional step of optimizing a cryoprotectant condition. Every Wizard Cryo formulation flash-freezes to a clear, amorphous glass in liquid nitrogen or in a cryo-stream at 100K. Crystals can be frozen directly from their growth drops, avoiding the additional step of pre-equilibration with an artificial cryo-condition that can damage the crystal. Eleven different cryocrystallants and sparing use of glycerol ensures a broad sampling of possible cryo conditions. Choose from Wizard Cryo 1 or 2 formulations in tubes or Wizard Cryo 1 and 2 together in a 96-well matrix block.

Hampton Siliconized Glass Cover Slides

ApplicationsHanging, sitting or sandwich drop crystallization
FeaturesHigh purity of glassSiliconized, hydrophobic glass surface0.22 mm & 0.96 mm glass thicknessThicker glass slides preserve temperature longer12 mm, 18 mm, & 22 mm glass diameterCircle & squareUV Compatible (>85% transmission)
12 x 0.22 mm Circle
18 x 0.22 mm Circle
22 x 0.22 mm Circle & Square

Description
Siliconized glass cover slides allow a droplet to be suspended in a position which provides near optimal conditions for vapor diffusion with the surrounding reservoir solution. These siliconized glass cover slides provide a consistent, high quality finish for crystallization experiments. The hydrophobic surface produces a drop which “stands well” and does not flatten on the glass. The siliconized surface prevents the adhesion of crystals and precipitate onto the glass surface. Use Dow Corning Vacuum Grease (HR3-510), Dow Corning 7 Release Compound (HR3-508), or immersion oil to seal cover slide to plate. Available in 12, 18 or 22 mm diameter circles and 22 mm diameter squares. Available in 0.22 mm or 0.96 mm glass thickness. The 0.96 mm thick slides are virtually unbreakable during crystallization handling.

The following slides are UV transmissable (>85%):
HR3-277 and HR3-279 – 12 mm x 0.22 mm Siliconized circle cover slides
HR3-231 and HR3-233 – 22 mm x 0.22 mm Siliconized circle cover slides
HR3-239 and HR3-241 – 18 mm x 0.22 mm Siliconized circle cover slides

Plain, non-siliconized, hydrophilic glass cover slides. Useful for hanging drop, sitting drop, and sandwich drop vapor diffusion crystallization methods. The hydrophilic surface creates a drop which is more flat than a drop on a siliconized surface. This offers enhanced imaging for very small drops. Use Dow Corning® Vacuum Grease (HR3-510), Dow Corning® 7 Release Compound (HR3-508), or immersion oil to seal cover slide to plate.
