Name: Analysis of N-glycanase 1 by Differential Scanning Fluorimetry(DSF)
SKU: STEM-MB-0836-WXH
Rating: 5 (1 reviews)

Introduction

N-glycanase (NGLY1) is an enzyme responsible for cleaving oligosaccharide moieties from misfolded glycoproteins to enable their proper degradation. Deletion and truncation mutations in this gene are responsible for an inherited disorder of the endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation pathway.

Principle

Differential Scanning Fluorimetry measures protein thermal unfolding by monitoring changes in fluorescence emission of a sample upon heating. This allows the determination of protein thermostability and complex formation even with weakly binding ligands by thermal shift assay. Differential Scanning Fluorimetry is therefore ideally suited for screening of optimum buffer conditions like pH, buffer composition and ionic strength. The technique is applicable to any biological sample, from soluble proteins to integral membrane proteins.

Applications

To identify low-molecular-weight ligands that bind and stabilize purified proteins.
To measure the denaturation and unfolding of proteins.
