Ni nta agarose column

Manufactured by GE Healthcare
Sourced in United Kingdom, United States

Ni-NTA agarose column is a chromatography resin used for the purification of histidine-tagged recombinant proteins. The resin consists of nickel-nitrilotriacetic acid (Ni-NTA) immobilized on agarose beads, which bind to the histidine tag on the target protein. This allows for selective capture and purification of the desired protein from complex mixtures.

Following induction using methanol for 96 h, the supernatant of the high-expressing clone was collected and dialyzed against a binding buffer (20 mM phosphate buffer, 300 mM NaCl, pH 7.4) overnight using a 10 kDa cutoff dialysis membrane (Millipore, Billerica, MA, USA). Subsequent to filtering through 0.22 um filters (Millipore, Billerica, MA, USA), the supernatants were added to a nickel-nitrilotriacetic acid (Ni-NTA) agarose column (GE, Boston, FA, USA) with 1 mL/min flow velocity, and then the column was washed with ten column volumes of binding buffer. The interest protein bound to the column was eluted with 250 mM imidazole in a binding buffer. The elution fraction containing the interest protein was dialyzed against PBS overnight to remove the imidazole. Finally, the protein was concentrated using ultrafiltration and the concentration of the purified protein was measured using a BCA protein quantification kit (CW biotech, Beijing, China) and HPLC (Shimadzu, Tyoto, Japan) was used to determine the purity of this BsDb, as described in our previous study [47 (link)].

The 19 mutant clones were constructed by a PCR-based strategy using the Fast Mutagenesis System (TransGen Biotech, Beijing, China). The corresponding primers were listed in Supplementary Table S1. Each mutant clone, verified by DNA sequencing, was transferred into BL21(DE3) and expressed using the same procedure for the wild type clone. The mutant protein was purified tandemly by using the Ni-NTA agarose column (GE Healthcare), the HiTrap Q column (GE Healthcare) and the Superdex 200 Increase prepacked column (GE Healthcare).

A cDNA fragment encoding human HAT-L4 protease domain (amino acids 196–433 based on NCBI accession number NP_997290.2) was amplified from the human leukemia cell line MEG-01 by RT-PCR. The PCR fragment was sequenced and inserted into pQE30 expression vector encoding a C-terminal His tag (Qiagen). Recombinant HAT-L4 protein was expressed in Escherichia coli, purified with a Ni-NTA agarose column (GE Healthcare Life Sciences), and verified by SDS-PAGE and Coomassie blue staining. The purified HAT-L4 protein was used to immunize BALB/c mice to make monoclonal antibodies. Positive hybridoma cells were identified by ELISA using the purified recombinant HAT-L4 protein and used to produce ascites in mice. Monoclonal antibodies were purified from the ascites using a protein-G-Sepharose 4B column (GE Healthcare Life Sciences) and analyzed by Western blotting, immunostaining and flow cytometry. In Western blotting and immunohistochemical analyses, the antibodies recognized human HAT-L4 protein but not mouse HAT-L4 protein.

The Tg14-3-3 coding sequences were synthesized (GeneArt, LifeTechnologies) and expressed through a pRSET-A expression vector (LifeTechnologies) with a N-Terminal His6-tag in T7express competent cells (NEB) at 37°C for 4h in the presence of 0.4 mM IPTG. The protein was purified as previously described (Nurmi et al., 2006 (link)). Briefly rTg14-3-3 was isolated through a NiNTA agarose column (GE Healthcare) from the clarified lysate (PBS, 0.05% Triton-X100, 10 mM Imidazol, 1 mM PMSF, 2 mM MgCl2, 50 μg/ml DNAse I). The eluted protein was further purified using HiTrap MonoQ chromatography (GE Healthcare) in 20 mM Tris pH 7.0, 50 mM NaCl, 2 mM DTT, with linear NaCl gradient elution. Final purification was performed on a Superdex 200 10/300 size-exclusion column (GE Healthcare) in PBS, 2 mM DTT and 2 mM EDTA. The His-tag was removed by digestion with 0.2 U of Enterokinase (LifeTechnologies) per 40 μg 14-3-3 and incubating according to the manufacturer’s instruction followed by a pass over NiNTA agarose and gel filtration chromatography.

For peptide expression, E. coli BL21(DE3) cells (New England Biolabs) expressing N-terminal His6-tagged TglA from His6-TglA-pRSF-Duet-1 were grown with 50 μg/mL kanamycin in autoinduction (AI) media (for 1 L total: 10 g bacto tryptone, 5 g yeast extract, 5 g NaCl, 3 g KH2PO4, 6 g Na2HPO4) with 1X AI sugar solution containing 0.5% (vol/vol) glycerol, 0.05% (w/vol) glucose, and 0.2% (w/vol) lactose (20 mL of 50× stock)). Cultures were shaken at 37 °C for 6-7 h following inoculation with 1 mL of saturated culture. Cells were harvested and lysed by sonication. Peptides were purified by immobilized metal affinity chromatography (IMAC). The lysate was clarified by centrifugation at 29,000 rcf and applied to a 5 mL NiNTA-agarose column (GE Healthcare) using a peristaltic pump. The immobilized peptide was washed with 5 column volumes (CV) of 90% lysis buffer (50 mM HEPES, 100 mM NaCl, pH 7.5), 10% elution buffer (50 mM HEPES, 100 mM NaCl, 500 mM imidazole, pH 7.5; final imidazole concentration in wash: 50 mM) and eluted with 100% elution buffer. The elution fraction was concentrated using a 3 kDa MWCO Amicon spin filter and washed with 10-20 CV of deionized water to remove imidazole. Crude peptide was desalted with a VYDAC® Bioselect C4 cartridge. Peptide elution fractions were lyophilized.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
