BioMThermDB 1.0: Thermophysical Database of Proteins in Solutions

Abstract

We present here a freely available web-based database, called BioMThermDB 1.0, of thermophysical and dynamic properties of various proteins and their aqueous solutions. It contains the hydrodynamic radius, electrophoretic mobility, zeta potential, self-diffusion coefficient, solution viscosity, and cloud-point temperature, as well as the conditions for those determinations and details of the experimental method. It can facilitate the meta-analysis and visualization of data, can enable comparisons, and may be useful for comparing theoretical model predictions with experiments.
