The mutual diffusion coefficients for two aqueous ternary systems, both containing a protein, human serum albumin (HSA, component 1), were measured. The first system contained a neutral polymer, polyethylene glycol (PEG, component 2), and the second an "organic solvent", 2-methyl-2,4-pentanediol

Glutathione S-transferase (GST) is widely used to prepare and purify GSTtagged fusion proteins. Although GST improves protein solubility, detergents must often be used to achieve protein solubilization from bacterial lysates. However, purification of GST by affinity chromatography cannot be achieved

Staphylococcal α-hemolysin is expressed as a water-soluble monomeric protein and assembles on membranes to form a heptameric pore structure. The heptameric pore structure of α-hemolysin can be prepared from monomer in vitro only in the presence of deoxycholate detergent micelles
