CD spectra were recorded on an Aviv Model 410 (Aviv Biomedical Inc., Lakewood, NJ) at 25 °C using a 0.1-cm quartz cuvette. Protein was prepared in either 10 mm potassium phosphate buffer, pH 7.4, or 25 mm Tris, pH 7.4, 1 mm MgCl2 with or without 0.05% (v/v) N,N-dimethyldodecylamine N-oxide (LDAO; Sigma) at concentrations ranging from 2.6 to 10 μm. Spectra were recorded between 190 and 260 nm in increments of 1 nm, with a bandwidth of 1 nm and an averaging time of 5 s. Spectra from three scans were averaged, baseline corrected, and smoothed using the Aviv software. Spectra are expressed as mean residue ellipticity using protein concentrations determined by amino acid analysis. CD spectra were deconvoluted with the CDSSTR algorithm using the Dichroweb software (58 (link), 59 (link)). The estimated helical content given was obtained when using protein reference set 4 (60 (link)). Normalized mean root square deviation was <0.011 for all deconvolutions described.

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.
