Analysis Interactions of Calcineurin-Peptide by Microscale Thermophoresis (MST) (CAT#: STEM-MB-2462-LGZ)

Introduction

Calcineurin is a Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent phosphatase. It is very important to study the affinity between calcineurin and its substrate or other interacting proteins. There are two conserved motifs on calcineurin-interacting proteins, namely PxIxIT motif and LxVP motif. Microscale Thermophoresis (MST) is fast and accurate in determining the affinity between protein-peptide interactions.

Principle

One of the interacting molecules (mostly proteins) is labeled with fluorescent dye or combined with GFP label. The labeled protein and ligand molecules are placed in the capillary according to a specific concentration gradient. Infrared laser heating generates a microscopic temperature gradient field to undergo thermophoresis, with which the hydration layer, molecular size, electric charge and other molecular properties will change. Then the fluorescence distribution in the reaction system changes. In addition to accurately detecting interactions between biomolecules, MST can also obtain other parameters related to interactions between biomolecules by calculating dissociation constants (Ks), and achieve accurate qualitative analysis.

Applications

For characterizing thermodynamic parameters of biomolecular interactions.

Procedure

1. Sample processing.
