spNW50 is high molecular weight membrane scaffold protein used to produce large nanodiscs.

NW50 is high molecular weight membrane scaffold protein used to produce large nanodiscs.spNW50 could construct nanodiscs with large diameter, and is circularized by SpyTag-Spycatcher.

Sequence and Features

Characterization

Functional Verification

The theoretical molecular weight of NW50 is 123.9kDa[1], and the actual molecular weight size verified by SDS-PAGE in literature and practical experiments is 150kDa. Due to the large molecular weight of the protein, NW50 is prone to dimerization during actual protein extraction. Protein dimerization can be minimized by adding the detergent Triton X-100 to the refined extraction buffer and reducing the nickel column elution time during the refined extraction process. It should be used as soon as possible after protein extraction to prevent the protein from self-dimerizing after a period of time(Figure 1). A more specific exploration of protein dimerization conditions can be found in the engineering section of 2024BNUChina iGEM.

Conclusion

According to the results of electron microscopy and DLS, NW50 and lipid DOPC can be successfully used to fabricate nanodiscs with a particle size of about 100nm(Figure 2).
