Streptavidin beads

Manufactured by Cytiva
Sourced in China

Streptavidin beads are solid-phase supports coated with the protein streptavidin. Streptavidin has a high affinity for the small molecule biotin, forming a very stable non-covalent bond. These beads can be used to capture and isolate biotinylated molecules, proteins, or cells in various laboratory applications.

GST-fused constructs were expressed in BL21 Escherichia coli. In vitro transcription and translation experiments were done with rabbit reticulocyte lysate (TNT systems, Promega) according to the manufacturer’s recommendation. In GST pull-down assays, about 5 μg of the appropriate GST fusion proteins with 30 μl of glutathione-Sepharose beads was incubated with 5–8 μl of in vitro transcribed/translated products in binding buffer (75 mM NaCl, 50 mM HEPES, pH 7.9) at 4 °C for 2 h in the presence of the protease inhibitor mixture. The beads were washed 5 times with binding buffer, resuspended in 30 μl of 2 × SDS-PAGE loading buffer, and detected by western blotting. For Pull-Down assay of biotinylated LPS, the reaction mixtures containing recombinant galectin-3 and biotinylated LPS were incubated for 4 h at 4 °C. Pull-down of LPS was carried out by treating the mixtures with streptavidin beads (Cytiva).

Keloid fibroblasts overexpressing DJ-1-V5-TurboID were treated with 50 μM biotin for 30 min. The protein was extracted using RIPA lysis buffer and then treated with ultrasound for 3 min. After centrifugation, part of the protein supernatant was denatured for the detection of whole-cell lysis and the other part was incubated with streptavidin beads (Cytiva) at 4°C overnight. Then, the beads were washed using 1 ml of RIPA lysis buffer, 1 ml of KCl, 1 ml of Na2CO3, 1 ml of 2 M urea (pH 8.0) and 1 ml of RIPA lysis buffer in sequence. Then, 100 μl of elution buffer was added to the beads and heated for 10 min at 95°C. The beads were separated magnetically and elution buffer containing biotinylated proteins was collected for further mass spectrometric analysis. In the liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC–MS) experiment, after reduction and alkylation, the samples were treated with trypsin (mass ratio 1 : 50) and digested at 37°C for 20 h. After desalting, the digested product was lyophilized, redissolved in a 0.1% FA solution and stored at −20°C until further use. The mass/charge ratios of the peptides and peptide fragments were obtained as follows: 20 fragment profiles were collected after each full scan. The raw file was searched by Proteome Discoverer1.4 software and the identified protein results were obtained.

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.
