Comments
Content of the practical:
- Expression of two membrane proteins in E. coli and P. pastoris system
- purification via affinity chromatography (includes cell disruption with pressure, solubilization procedures with detergents) and gelfiltration on an Äkta system (demo)
- protein analysis with UV/Vis spectroscopy and SDS-PAGE
- sequential centrifugation for membrane protein purification
- Directed mutagenesis by PCR (megaprimer method, QuikChange) and cloning into the expression host P. pastoris (contains techniques like digestion and ligation of DNA, DNA prep, electrotransformation, agarose gel electrophoresis)
- Membrane protein crystallization trials in lipidic cubic phase
- the generated membrane proteins will be used in the subsequent course 216462 of AG Heberle
