Title:
MODIFIED PROTEINS AND METHODS OF MAKING AND USING SAME
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2011/106766
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
Methods, compositions, systems, apparatuses and kits comprising modified proteins, particularly modified nucleic acid-binding proteins with altered buffering properties are provided. For example, in some embodiments, methods of forming modified proteins including one or more amino acid modifications to achieve desired pKa values are described. Furthermore, the invention provides methods for using such modified proteins in ion-producing reactions, such as ion-based nucleic acid sequencing reactions.
