Description

The MSP Starter Kit for In Vitro Protein Synthesis is ready to use for cell-free protein synthesis: it contains 8 different pre-assembled MSP-nanodiscs, which can be added directly to the expression reaction so the membrane protein inserts co-translationally into a membrane with predefined lipid composition, no detergents or post-synthesis reconstitution needed. This selection of MSP preassembled nanodiscs is particularly well suited for GPCRs. Two scaffold sizes (MSP1D1, MSP1E3D1) × four lipid compositions (DOPG; DOPG/Cardiolipin; POPC/POPS; POPC/POPS/Cholesterol) allow quick identification of the best-performing condition, manually or on a liquid handler. Matching Scale-up vials carry the winning condition forward to µg-to-mg quantities of purified, functional membrane protein

Molecular mass	MSP1D1: 23.33 kDa MSPE3D1: 29.98 kDa
Extinction coefficient (in H2O) ε280	MSP1D1: 25,440 M-1cm-1 MSPE3D1: 26,930 M-1cm-1
Buffer	20 mM TRIS pH 7.4; 100 mM NaCl; 0.5 mM EDTA
Affinity tag	none
Stability & Storage	-80°C for several months Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles
Shipping	Dry ice
Hazards	Product is not classified as hazardous according to (EC) No 1272/2008 [CLP]. A Material Safety Data Sheet is provided.
Application	Primarily used in cell-free (in vitro) synthesis to screen and identify the best-performing nanodisc condition for a given GPCR. Without an affinity tag, the reconstituted receptor is suited for native, label-free downstream applications, supporting structural studies (e.g. cryo-EM), ligand-binding and functional assays, and early-stage drug discovery screening.
Recommended usage	In Vitro Protein Synthesis 5-75 μM (0.5-7.5 μL)
Manufacturer	Cube Biotech

Watch our video tutorial about the creation of MSP nanodiscs. It explains the whole process, starting with the initial solubilzation using detergents. The protein that was stabilized in this demonstration was Bacteriorhodopsin.

We also recommend our video guide to nanodiscs in general.

FAQ

Can I get the Dataseet for the MSP Starter Kit for In Vitro Protein Synthesis?

Yes. You can request it here.

I have never worked with MSP nanodiscs before. Can you tell me more about them?

Of course! We created THIS MSP NANODISC GUIDE PAGE, for this purpose. Have a look at it!

Are there other options to stabilize membrane proteins besides MSP nanodiscs?

Yes, there are. We recommend synthetic copolymer nanodiscs greatly! Have a look at THIS GUIDE PAGE to learn more.
