Molecular mass analysis of lipopeptide by Static light scattering (SLS) (CAT#: STEM-MB-0595-WXH)
Introduction
A lipopeptide is a molecule consisting of a lipid connected to a peptide. They are able to self-assemble into different structures. Many bacteria produced these molecules as a part of their metabolism, especially those of the genus Bacillus, Pseudomonas and Streptomyces. Certain lipopeptides are used as antibiotics.
Principle
Static light scattering is a technique in physical chemistry that measures the intensity of the scattered light to obtain the average molecular weight Mw of a macromolecule like a polymer or a protein in solution. Measurement of the scattering intensity at many angles allows calculation of the root mean square radius, also called the radius of gyration Rg. By measuring the scattering intensity for many samples of various concentrations, the second virial coefficient, A2, can be calculated.
Applications
The main applications of static light scattering is molecular mass determination of macromolecules, such as proteins and polymers, as it is possible to measure the molecular mass of proteins without any assumption about their shape.
