Abstract

See full text

The invention relates to methods and compositions for assessing protein stability, including improved assays for distinguishing between soluble and aggregated proteins. The methods and compositions include measuring residual fluorescence of a fusion protein in a soluble fraction as an indicator of protein solubility, and monitoring fluorescence quenching of a fusion protein as an indicator of protein stability. The fusion protein may comprise an amino acid sequence of a protein of interest, a peptide linker amino acid sequence and an amino acid sequence of a fluorescent marker protein.
