Rapid Screening & Optimization of Crystallization Conditions of the Bacterial Periplasmic Binding Protein, HbpA Role as a Glutathione Import Protein

30 Jan 2019

Glutathione is one of the major antioxidants/redox molecules in most aerobic cells, playing an important role in cell metabolism, differentiation, proliferation, and apoptosis. The reduced form of glutathione (GSH) is required for the detoxification of drugs and reactive compounds of both endogenous and exogenous origin, the delivery of its constituent amino acids to other tissues and the secretion of hepatic bile.

Protein CrystallographyProtein crystallization is the process of crystallizing purified proteins for 3D structure analysis by x-ray crystallography. The main methods of protein crystallization include sitting drop, hanging drop and microbatch. It is important to control parameters such as pH, temperature and concentration. Following crystallization, detectors and software are used for data collection and analysis.Automated Liquid HandlingAutomated liquid handling equipment is used to mix, dilute and dispense allotted volumes of liquid into microplates and other vessels automatically. The robotic, liquid handling arms can dispense from single channel to 3456 multichannel as well as operate nanoliter dispensing, enabling high throughput of samples.
