Abstract

Studying biomolecules in their native environment represents the ideal sample condition for structural biology investigations. Here we present a novel protocol which allows to delivery proteins into eukaryotic cells through a mild thermal stimulation. The data presented herein show the efficacy of this approach for delivering proteins in the intracellular environment of mammalian cells reaching a concentration range suitable for successfully applying biophysical methods, such as double electron electron resonance (DEER) measurements for characterising protein conformations.
