Chymotrypsinogen Crystallization Optimization

We determined crystallization conditions for chymotrypsinogen (Sigma) using the commercial Crystal Screen HT (Hampton Research) set up with a Mosquito robot (STP Labtech). Crystals were grown via hanging-drop vapor diffusion at 18°C from condition F11. To optimize the crystallization conditions further, we set up a 24-well tray using hanging-drop vapor diffusion with a fixed pH of 6.5, varying the concentration of both dioxane (10% or 15%) and ammonium sulfate (1.0–2.0 M). Each drop, consisting of 1 µl reservoir solution (1.0–2.0 M ammonium sulfate, 0.1 M MES pH 6.5 and 10% or 15% dioxane) and 1 µl 10.0 mg ml−1 enzyme, was equilibrated over 0.5 ml reservoir solution. The other two crystallization conditions consisted of either 0.2 M ammonium acetate, 0.1 M sodium acetate trihydrate pH 4.6, 30%(w/v) PEG 4000 or 0.5 M ammonium sulfate, 0.1 M sodium citrate tribasic dihydrate pH 5.6, with 1.0 M lithium sulfate monohydrate in the reservoir. All crystals were cryocooled in 3.5 M lithium sulfate. A typical drop containing these crystals is shown in Fig. 1.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
