Analysis case: Evaluation of protein denaturation temperature and Zn2+ effects using NanoDSC.
This is an introduction to a protein analysis case study by a specialist in analysis. This time, we evaluated the changes in denaturation temperature behavior with the addition of Zn2+ using NanoDSC.
Measurement capabilities offered by TA Instruments ☆ Thermal analysis / glass transition, crystallization, thermogravimetric analysis, curing reactions, expansion rate, thermal conductivity, shrinkage rate, effects of moisture, etc. ☆ Viscoelastic measurements (rheology) / viscoelasticity, elastic modulus, viscosity, stress relaxation, creep, master curve, residual strain, molecular weight, molecular weight distribution, etc. ☆ Microcalorimetry / intermolecular interactions, crystallization, amorphousness, aggregation/precipitation, dispersibility, solubility, compatibility, wettability, stability, adsorption, etc. ☆ Fatigue testing / tensile strength, temperature dependence, viscoelasticity, elastic modulus, viscosity, stress relaxation, creep, master curve, residual strain, etc.
basic information
At TA Instruments, we handle a wide range of equipment including "thermal analysis instruments," "viscoelastic measurement devices and rheometers," "microcalorimeters (for biological and medical fields)," and "fatigue testing machines." This time, we will introduce three types of microcalorimeters, which are very suitable for evaluation in the fields of biology, bio, and pharmaceuticals. ◆Microcalorimeter for Biological Use (NanoDSC) The microcalorimeter for biological use (nano DSC) is the most widely used thermal analysis instrument for the physical property evaluation of a broad range of materials including polymers, pharmaceuticals, food, biological substances, organic compounds, inorganic compounds, and composite materials.

April Online LIVE Seminar! ~Protein Analysis Seminar~
13:00~14:00 Examples of ITC Utilization - Useful Information Beyond Binding Strength - Masayuki Oda, Kyoto Prefectural University The Isothermal Titration Calorimeter (ITC) is a device that detects changes in heat associated with titration at a constant temperature, primarily used for analyzing molecular interactions. It provides information not only about binding strengths such as Ka and Kd of biomacromolecules like proteins, but also about binding ratios and thermodynamic quantities (ΔH, ΔS, etc.). This presentation will introduce how these pieces of information can be useful and applied, based on specific examples. 14:00~14:30 Introduction to Isothermal Titration Calorimetry (ITC) and Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) for Biomacromolecules Minako Maeda, TA Instruments Application Department

July Online LIVE Seminar! ~Protein Analysis Seminar~
13:00~14:00 Analysis of the interaction between sleep substance-synthesizing enzyme and ligand using isothermal titration calorimetry Shigeru Shimamoto, Lecturer, Department of Life Science, College of Science and Engineering, Kinki University Isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) has the significant advantage of detecting molecular interactions in a form that is closer to the state present in vivo, without the need for chemical modifications, immobilization, or detection probes. Furthermore, it is a method that provides nearly complete thermodynamic parameters related to the interactions. Here, I will introduce the analysis of the interaction between lipocalin-type prostaglandin D synthase (L-PGDS), which acts as a sleep substance-synthesizing enzyme in the mammalian brain, and its ligand, prostaglandin (PG), using ITC, and discuss the elucidation of the enzyme reaction mechanism in conjunction with structural information. 14:00~14:30 Introduction to isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) for biomacromolecules Minako Maeda, Applications Department, TA Instruments
