a possibility, if you must try, would be to look at intein-based protein ligation. Hideo Iwai has a series of papers on this over the last 15+ years. Adrian On 26 Jul 2023, at 11:14, Armando Albert mailto:xalb...@iqfr.csic.es>> wrote: Dear all, We are trying to characterize a protein consistin

Hi Armando, Have you looked at predicted models e.g. Alphafold for the full-length protein? + Are there experimentally determined structures for full length structural homologues or orthologues from other species to validate computational models? You may be able to align your domains against th

Hi Armando At the risk of appearing flippant, why not submit the sequence of the full-length protein to something like Alphafold (readily available to all via ColabFold (see https://colab.research.google.com/github/sokrypton/ColabFold/blob/main/AlphaFold2.ipynb)? I suspect that each of the t

Dear all, We are trying to characterize a protein consisting of two domains. We have successfully produced, purified and crystallized both domains independently. However, we are unable to overexposes a soluble form of the full-length protein. Can anyone provide a strategy to merge back the ind
