Rprotein a sepharose 4 fast flow

Manufactured by GE Healthcare
Sourced in United Kingdom

RProtein A Sepharose 4 Fast Flow is a pre-packed affinity chromatography medium designed for the purification of immunoglobulins and Fc-containing proteins. It is based on highly cross-linked agarose beads with covalently coupled recombinant Protein A ligand, providing a high dynamic binding capacity and fast flow properties.

Antibody Selection against Ci-VSD Mutants

WT and R217E mutant of Ci-VSD-1-260 constructs were biotinylated through amine
coupling with NHS-SS-PEG4-Biotin (Thermo Scientific). Phage display selections were
performed using a synthetic antibody library built on the 4D5 Fab scaffold as described
previously (Rizk et al., 2011 (link)). Target protein
concentrations were serially adjusted using 100 nM in the first round and 10 nM and 5 nM
in subsequent rounds to ensure proper stringency. The conformation specific binders were
selected using a competitive selection strategy where 1 μM nonbiotinylated
competitor (such as Ci-VSD WT) was added to the phage library prior to the incubation with
actual selection target (such as Ci-VSD R217E). A single point competitive ELISA step used
to identify positive clones. Fabs were expressed in E. coli strain 55244 in phosphate
depleted media as described previously (Rizk et al.,
2011
). Fabs were purified using automated two step protocol employing a custom
build AKTA purification system with 5ml rProteinA Sepharose 4 Fast Flow and 1ml Resource S
column (GE Healthcare) columns. Fractions were verified by SDS-PAGE, pooled and dialyzed
against PBS.

Small-scale antibody purification was performed essentially as described previously [17 (link)]. Briefly, frozen leaf material was first crushed in a ball mill as above and then extracted with 2 μL buffer (45 mM tris/HCl (pH 7.4), 1.5 M NaCl, 40 mM ascorbic acid, 1 mM EDTA) per mg of leaf material for 15 min at 0°C. After centrifugation (5 min, 14000g, 4°C), the supernatant was incubated with rProtein A Sepharose 4 Fast Flow (GE Healthcare, Little Chalfont, UK) for 90 min under constant agitation at 4°C. The beads were then collected by centrifugation and washed with phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) prior to elution of bound antibody with sodium dodecyl sulfate–polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS–PAGE) sample buffer.

Antibody Extraction and Purification

Antibody extraction and purification was performed
as described previously, with minor modifications.41 (link),43 (link) Briefly, infiltrated leaf material was homogenized under liquid
nitrogen and extracted with 0.1 M Tris/HCl (pH 7.0) containing 0.5
M NaCl, 40 mM ascorbic acid and 1 mM EDTA (2 mL per gram leaf wet
weight). The extract was clarified by a series of centrifugation and
filtration steps. Antibodies were then purified by affinity chromatography
on a column packed with 1 mL rProtein A Sepharose 4 Fast Flow (GE
Healthcare, UK), using 0.1 M glycine/HCl (pH 3.0) for elution. Protein-containing
eluate fractions were immediately neutralized by addition of 0.1 M
Tris/HCl (pH 8.0), dialyzed against PBS containing 0.02% (v/v) NaN3 and then concentrated by ultrafiltration using Amicon YM30
centrifugal filter units (Merck, Germany).

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.
