Vriend J, Nieskens TTG, Vormann MK et al (2018) screening of drug-transporter interactions in a 3D microfluidic renal proximal tubule on a chip
Two important immortalized cell lines have been extensively used for nephrotoxicity screening: RPTEC/TERT1 and ciPTEC
The technique can reveal the presence of disordered regions and the flexibility of multidomain proteins by observing characteristics, such as large R g , expanded distance distribution functions (p(r)), and, for highly disordered proteins, the lack of a characteristic bell-shaped peak in Kratky plot ( Among the first SAXS-based studies of disordered proteins was structural characterization of the acid-denatured form of apo-cytochrome c , which was shown to behave as a random coil, being characterized by high R g (evaluated by SAXS) and Stokes radius R s values (determined by dynamic light scattering), the R g /R s ratio of 1.55 typical for a random-coil polymer, and the lack of the peak in the Kratky plot (Damaschun et al., 1991a)
