Differential scanning fluorimetry to assess PFAS binding to bovine serum albumin protein [PDF]
The rapid screening of protein binding affinity for poly- and perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) benefits risk assessment and fate and transport modelling. PFAS are known to bioaccumulate in livestock through contaminated food and water.

Intrinsic Differential Scanning Fluorimetry for Protein Stability Assessment in Microwell Plates [PDF]
Intrinsic differential scanning fluorimetry (DSF) is essential for analyzing protein thermal stability. Until now, intrinsic DSF was characterized by medium throughput and high consumable costs. Here, we present a microplate-based intrinsic DSF approach that enables the measurement of up to 384 samples in parallel by consuming only 10 μL per sample. We

Aurora 2.0: A fluorogenic dye library for expanding the capability of protein-adaptive differential scanning fluorimetry (paDSF) [PDF]
Differential Scanning Fluorimetry (DSF) is a biophysical assay that is used to estimate protein stability in vitro. In a DSF experiment, the increased fluorescence of a solvatochromatic dye, such as Sypro Orange, is used to detect the unfolding of a ...

Use of differential scanning fluorimetry to optimize the purification and crystallization of PLP-dependent enzymes [PDF]
Differential scanning fluorimetry (DSF) is a practical and accessible technique that allows the assessment of multiphasic unfolding behavior resulting from subsaturating binding of ligands. Multiphasic unfolding is indicative of a heterogenous protein solution, which frequently interferes with crystallization and complicates functional characterization

Toward Comprehensive In Vitro Evaluation of Serum Albumin Binding of Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances [PDF]
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) constitute a large and chemically diverse class of synthetic compounds characterized by one or more fully fluorinated methyl or methylene groups. Many PFAS are toxic, environmentally persistent, bioaccumulative,

Protocol for performing and optimizing differential scanning fluorimetry experiments. [PDF]
Differential scanning fluorimetry (DSF) is a widely used technique for determining the apparent melting temperature (Tma) of a purified protein. Here, we present a protocol for performing and optimizing DSF experiments. We describe steps for designing and performing the experiment, analyzing data, and optimization.

Fluorescent Dyes for Differential Scanning Fluorimetry of RNA. [PDF]
Differential scanning fluorimetry (DSF) to determine the thermal stability of RNA has only recently been adapted from proteins using the nucleic acid dye RiboGreen. Here, we investigate the suitability of seven commercially available nucleic acid dyes for use in DSF on RNA—acridine orange, ethidium bromide, RiboGreen, OliGreen, SYBR Green II, SYBR Gold,

Quantitation of autoinhibitory defects in pathogenic SHP2 mutants by differential scanning fluorimetry. [PDF]
Src-homology-2-domain-containing protein tyrosine phosphatase-2 (SHP2) is a signaling enzyme whose activity is governed by an equilibrium between autoinhibited and activated states. Regulation of SHP2 activity is critical for cellular homeostasis, and mutations that alter its autoregulatory equilibrium cause cancers and developmental disorders. Several
