eSOL(Solubility database of all E.coli proteins) is a database on the solubility of entire ensemble E.coli proteins (Niwa T, Ying BW, Saito K, Jin W, Takada S, Ueda T and Taguchi H, 2009) individually synthesized by PURE system that is chaperone free.

 - The database now includes condensation control effect data of the molecular chaperone to 788 cohesive protein
 - The search function is expanded to implement the compunde retrieval

Abstract

eSOL is a database on the solubility of entire ensemble E.coli proteins (Niwa T, Ying BW, Saito K, Jin W, Takada S, Ueda T and Taguchi H, 2009) individually synthesized by PURE system that is chaperone free.
The database is a collaborative product of a protein production team and the information platform in the Targeted Proteins Research Project.

It is to be noted that the experiment was based on ASKA library (A complete Set of E.coli K-12 ORF Archive)constructed by Professor Hirotada Mori at Graduate School of Biological Sciences, Nara Institute of Science and Technology, Japan.
