While staying on the subject, I found the following paper very useful
when trying to produce Se-Met labeled protein in HEK293 Flp-In.
Barton et al. Highly efficient selenomethionine labeling of
recombinant proteins produced in mammalian cells. Protein Sci (2006)
vol. 15 (8) pp. 2008-13

Hello all,
Prompted by Kay Diederichs, herein follows a summary of the responses
gleaned from the CCP4BB. The wiki has also been edited to include the
summary:
http://strucbio.biologie.uni-konstanz.de/ccp4wiki/index.php/Expression_of_Se
Met_labeled_proteins
Summary:
1. Protocols for both auxotrophs and non-auxotrophs:
DoubliƩ, S. (1997). Methods Enzymol. 276, 523-532
2. Two protocols for semet labelling:
http://www.doe-mbi.ucla.edu/local/protocols
3. Another non-auxotroph protocol. G. Fritz says this recipe could
probably
be made in one vessel for immediate use, except for the aromatic
aa's which
might dissolve better at basic pH:

Met_labeled_proteins
4. Original literature source for met synthesis silencing (for use
with
non-auxotrophs):
Van Duyne et al. J. Mol. Biol. 229, 105-124 (1993).
5. Autoinduction semet protocol (allegedly complicated recipe):
Studier FW (2005) Protein production by auto-induction in high density
shaking cultures. Protein Expr. Purif. 41, 207-234
