With diisobutylene-maleic acid (DIBMA), you can directly extract membrane proteins from cells without an intermediate step of detergent solubilization, like with SDS, which would usually interfere with the protein's function. Another advantage of DIBMA as a tool for protein solubilization is the lack of an absorbance maxima at 280 nm. In comparison to SMAs, this would usually interfere with protein quantification, as aromatic amino acids absorb at the same spectrum.

AASTYs (Acrylic acid-co-styrenes) - like AASTY 11-50 - are highly-alternating copolymers, well-suited for the generation of native lipid nanodiscs. They are a 2022 novel developed series for membrane protein solubilization & stabilization. AASTY 11-50 gets its name from its molecular weight and Acrylic Acid : Styrene Ratio. These varying ratios of acrylic acid to styrene contribute to the hydrophilic properties of our AASTYs. In general lighter AASTYs, like 6-45 tend to be more aggressive, while heavier AASTYs, such as 11-50 show higher thermodynamic stability.

Every membrane protein solubilization needs to undergo a screening process in before. The characteristic phospholipid environment surrounding the different membrane proteins in question performs differently well with each polymer. To support you in this process, we offer a handy Screening Kit for AASTYs to test them all.

PureCube DIBMA is lyophilized from two different buffer solutions (HEPES or TRIS) to ensure a stable pH of 7.5, which is ideal for most protein solubilizations. A good publication to read even more details about DIBMA is Oluwole et al. 2017.

Membrane proteins and their composition are as versatile as the whole cell membrane itself. For this reason, it is impossible to predict with 100% accuracy which SMALP product is best suited for the solubilization and subsequent preparation of your membrane protein of interest. We offer this SMALP Screening Kit that consists of our four individual SMAs. This way, you can conveniently screen for the best SMA for your protein before scaling up your assay. In case you would like to extend your polymer screening beyond the reaches of SMA, we offer our Synthetic Nanodisc Screening Kit, which covers both SMA and DIBMA.

Each membrane protein has its native lipid environment. Therefore, each lipid environment is unique to each membrane protein. Moreover, it is this lipid environment that synthetic polymers like AASTYs interact with. Therefore, one needs a broader selection of polymers since there is not one AASTY that fits each phospholipid composition. To address this question, AASTYs come in three different ratios of acrylic acid to styrene. The ratios differ in hydrophilic property of AASTY, which results in different affinities to varying membrane lipid compositions. The second feature to screen for when it comes to AASTY is the size of the resulting nanodiscs. One of AASTY's most excellent features, compared to SMA or DIBMA, is that its nanodiscs are pretty uniform in size. Therefore, the correct fitting nanodisc size must be determined before.

IPTG is a modified sugar that can be used to induce protein expression under the control of the lacUV promotor. Our IPTG is of highest quality and purity. Like allolactose, IPTG binds to the lac repressor and releases the tetrameric repressor from the lac operator in an allosteric manner, thereby allowing the transcription of genes in the lac operon. But unlike allolactose, the sulfur (S) atom creates a chemical bond which is non-hydrolyzable by the cell, preventing the cell from metabolizing or degrading the inducer. The concentration of IPTG therefore remains constant and the expression of lac p/o-controlled genes would not be inhibited during the experiment.

Glyco-DIBMA is a modified version of DIBMA with a sugar side-chain added to the polymer molecule. Its purpose is to enhance DIBMA's range for solubilizing membrane proteins. After solving the Glyco-DIBMA + buffer powder in water, the product is ready-to-use. It can primarily be used for all cell membrane hosts, including bacteria, yeast, and human cells. After successful solubilization of the membrane protein of interest, the protein can be purified using affinity chromatography. We recommend the Rho1D4-tag for membrane protein purification and offer matching products for this purpose. DIBMA / Nanodisc Screening: Each membrane protein may perform better or differently with certain synthetic polymers. This is due to the characteristic composition of phospholipids surrounding the membrane proteins. Therefore a screening process for the correct DIBMA/Polymer is required in before. For this purpose, we offer our synthetic nanodisc screening kit MAXI which contains DIBMA, AASTY, and SMA.

AASTYs (Acrylic acid-co-styrenes) - like AASTY 6-50 - are highly-alternating copolymers, well-suited for the generation of native lipid nanodiscs.

These varying ratios of acrylic acid to styrene contribute to the hydrophilic properties of our AASTYs. In general lighter AASTYs, like 6-50 tend to be more aggressive, while heavier AASTYs, such as 11-45 show higher thermodynamic stability.

The exact composition of AASTY copolymers shows different extraction efficiency, depending on the lipid composition of the lipid bilayers being formulated into nanodiscs. As AASTY is made using controlled radical polymerization techniques, the dispersity of polymer molecular weight distribution is low, and the molecular weights are controlled. This means that excess AASTY copolymer can be removed by dialysis after nanodisc formation. Based on previous findings on SMA, it is the expectation that AASTY of different molecular weights will display different rates of nanodisc formation, extraction efficacy, and stability of resulting nanodiscs.

Every membrane protein solubilization needs to undergo a screening process before. The characteristic phospholipid environment surrounding the different membrane proteins in question performs differently well with each polymer.

Sulfo-DIBMA is an electroneutral modification of existing DIBMAs. It does not interfere with charge-sensitive interactions between proteins and lipids. This innovation opens up a wider range of experimental research in terms of charge-sensitive membrane protein processes like protein-protein and protein-lipid interactions. In addition, Sulfo-DIBMA belongs to a new generation of DIBMA’s which are RAFT polymerized. This achieves a reduction in both monomer size and greater monodispersity. With diisobutylene-maleic acid (DIBMA), you can directly extract membrane proteins from cells without an intermediate step of detergent solubilization, like with SDS, which would usually interfere with the protein's function. Another advantage of DIBMA is the lack of an absorbance maxima at 280 nm. SMAs, in comparison, usually interfere with protein quantification, as aromatic amino acids absorb at the same spectrum.
Another significant advantage of Sulfo polymers compared to other polymers is the wide pH range in which they remain stable. The buffer in which the polymer is supplied has a pH of 7.5, but the polymer itself remains stable between pH 4 and pH 10. The special physicochemical properties of Sulfo-DIBMAs make them ideal for cryo-TEM and other downstream applications.
