How do you know whether two molecules really interact? Binding affinity measurements can help move from "we think they interact" to quantitative evidence. We use SPR, ITC and MST to study protein-protein, protein-antibody and protein-small molecule interactions. www.gla.ac.uk/colleges/mvl...

By the end of the course, attendees will be able to quickly determine:

Protein concentration and the presence of nucleic acid contamination
Thermal stability and melting transitions
Optimal buffer conditions for stability and performance
Secondary structure content
Molecular weight and oligomeric state
