Hydrophobic PEG: Chemical‐shift‐perturbation mapping reveals an interaction between poly(ethylene glycol) and the hydrophobic surface surrounding the exposed haem edge of cytochrome c. This suggests that PEG might be a poor choice of crowding agent in protein interaction studies. In contrast, cytochrome c can be embedded in agarose gels with little effect on the NMR spectrum.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
