GST-Fusion Protein Extinction Coefficient ε₂₈₀ Calculator
Compute the 280 nm molar extinction coefficient of a gst-fusion protein from its amino-acid sequence. ProtParam method; enter disulfide count for cystine contribution. 100% in-browser — your sequence is never uploaded.
- 1ProtParam ε₂₈₀ = nW·5500 + nY·1490 + nSS·125
ε = 0·5500 + 1·1490 + 0·125 = 1,490 M⁻¹cm⁻¹

About GST-Fusion Protein Extinction Coefficient ε₂₈₀ Calculator
Compute the 280 nm molar extinction coefficient of a gst-fusion protein from its amino-acid sequence. ProtParam method; enter disulfide count for cystine contribution. 100% in-browser — your sequence is never uploaded. The calculation uses ε₂₈₀ = nW·5500 + nY·1490 + nSS·125. Why this calculation counts: The extinction coefficient sets every A280 concentration you report; the pI decides your ion-exchange and solubility strategy. These numbers underpin purification and quantitation. GST-Fusion Protein: ProtParam method; enter disulfide count for cystine contribution. Common pitfalls to avoid: using reduced vs oxidized ε in the wrong context; assuming pI from sequence equals experimental pI exactly; ignoring post-translational modifications. All maths runs locally in your browser; no data is ever sent to a server. That privacy is exactly why researchers link these calculators from protocols, theses and standard operating procedures.

Frequently asked questions
Any tips specific to this calculation?+
GST-Fusion Protein: ProtParam method; enter disulfide count for cystine contribution. Also watch out for: using reduced vs oxidized ε in the wrong context and forgetting cystine (disulfide) contributions to ε280.
Is this gst-fusion protein extinction coefficient ε₂₈₀ calculator free to use?+
Yes. It is completely free, needs no sign-up, and runs entirely in your browser — there are no usage limits.
What formula does it use?+
It uses ε₂₈₀ = nW·5500 + nY·1490 + nSS·125 The full worked example is shown beneath the result so you can verify each step.
What are the most common mistakes here?+
In protein and peptide characterization, watch for: forgetting cystine (disulfide) contributions to ε280; using reduced vs oxidized ε in the wrong context; assuming pI from sequence equals experimental pI exactly; ignoring post-translational modifications. This tool shows the working so you can catch these before they cost an experiment.
Does my data leave my device?+
No. All computation happens locally in your browser. Nothing you enter — sequences, concentrations or measurements — is uploaded to any server, so it is safe for confidential work.
Can I cite this tool?+
Yes — use the “Cite this tool” snippet on the page. Many users link these calculators from methods sections, lab SOPs and teaching materials.
