A convenient protein library for spectroscopic calibrations.

ABSTRACT: While several Raman, CD or FTIR spectral libraries are available for well-characterized proteins of known structure, proteins themselves are usually very difficult to acquire, preventing a convenient calibration of new instruments and new recording methods. The problem is particularly critical in the field of FTIR spectroscopy where numerous new methods are becoming available on the market. The present papers reports the construction of a protein library (cSP92) including commercially available products, that are well characterized experimentally for their purity and solubility in conditions compatible with the recording of FTIR spectra and whose high-resolution structure is available. Overall, 92 proteins were selected. These proteins cover well the CATH space at the level of classes and
