“…In 2008, we identified more than 500 articles after searching Web of Science, PubMed, SciDir and OVID databases using ‘isothermal AND titration AND calorimetry’ or ITC or ‘Isothermal Titration Calorimetry’ search terms. Following the format of previous annual surveys these have been classified into the following categories: References cited in the text and review articles 1–82. Protein–protein and protein–peptide interactions 83–222. Protein–small ligand or protein–drug interactions 223–321. Protein/peptide metal interactions 322–355. Protein/peptide nucleic acid interactions 356–387. Protein/peptide lipid interactions …”

Isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) is a fast, accurate and label-free method for measuring the thermodynamics and binding affinities of molecular associations in solution. Because the method will measure any reaction that results in a heat change, it is applicable to many different fields of research from biomolecular science, to drug design and materials engineering, and can be used to measure binding events between essentially any type of biological or chemical ligand. ITC is the only method that can directly measure binding energetics including Gibbs free energy, enthalpy, entropy and heat capacity changes. Not only binding thermodynamics but also catalytic reactions, conformational rearrangements, changes in protonation and molecular dissociations can be readily quantified by performing only a small number of ITC experiments. In this review, we highlight some of the particularly interesting reports from 2008 employing ITC, with a particular focus on protein interactions with other proteins, nucleic acids, lipids and drugs. As is tradition in these reviews we have not attempted a comprehensive analysis of all 500 papers using ITC, but emphasize those reports that particularly captured our interest and that included more thorough discussions we consider exemplify the power of the technique and might serve to inspire other users.
