Fractionation and Characterization of mAb Charge Variants

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Preparative separation of the mAb charge variants was carried out on a 9 × 250 mm ProPac™ WCX‐10 (Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc.) using an ÄKTA avant 25 and UNICORN 7.0 (GE Healthcare GmbH). mAb1 fractions were eluted using a linear NaCl gradient and pooled to obtain the charge variants as shown in Figure S1. As a control, all fractions of one run were pooled to obtain a sample of all charge variants exposed to the same conditions as the fractions. The charge variants and control sample were concentrated to around 2–5 g/L and rebuffered to 10 mM sodium phosphate pH 6.8 using 10 kDa molecular weight cut‐off Amicon® Ultra‐15 centrifugal filter units (Sigma‐Aldrich Chemie GmbH). In total, the fractionation experiment was carried out twice, and all resulting samples were checked by weak cation exchange chromatography (WCX) and capillary electrophoresis (CE). Biophysical properties (circular dichroism [CD], nano differential scanning fluorimetry [nano‐DSF], size exclusion chromatography [SEC]) were determined from one run in duplicates.

mAb1 was purified from cell culture free fluid using an in‐house‐packed MabSelect SuRe column, operated on an ÄKTA avant 25 using UNICORN 7.0 (GE Healthcare GmbH). The protein was eluted in 50 mM acetate pH 3.5. The eluted product pool was neutralized to pH 5.6 and stored at –70 °C until further use.

Size-Exclusion Chromatography of LptDE

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
LptDE samples were incubated at 20 °C in equilibration buffer (200 mM NaCl, 25 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.5), 10% (v/v) glycerol and 0.03% (w/v) DDM). After 0, 60 or 420 min the samples were subjected to size-exclusion chromatography on a Superdex 200 Increase 10/300 GL column (GE Healthcare) preequilibrated with the equilibration buffer. UNICORN 7.0 (GE Healthcare) was used to process analytical SEC data.

FPLC Purification of Protein Complexes

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A Superose 12 10/300 GL column (GE Healthcare) was connected to the AKTA FPLC system. WHRN NPDZ12, USH2A-CT(S), and ADGRV1-CT were mixed at the molar ratio of 1:1:1. 200–300 μl samples were filtered and loaded into the column. The chromatography profiles were analyzed using Unicorn 7.0 (GE Healthcare). The fractionation samples collected were applied to SDS-PAGE and Coomassie blue staining.

Analyzing GFP-CT Protein Status

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To determine their status in solution, 5 mg purified GFP-CT proteins were loaded onto Superdex 200 Increase (GE Healthcare) connected to ÄKTA Pure (GE Healthcare). Samples were eluted in a buffer [50 mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.0)] at the flow rate of 0.5 ml/min for 60 min. The data were collected and analyzed by the Unicorn 7 software (GE Healthcare). An equal amount of Gel Filtration Standard (Bio-rad) was analyzed under the same conditions as a marker.

To determine their dimeric state in solution, an equal amount of purified apo-CPB, CPB CP, or CPB CP_v1 (see the purification method below) was loaded onto Superdex 75 Increase 10/300 GL (GE Healthcare) connected to ÄKTA Pure 25 L1 (GE Healthcare). Samples were eluted in a buffer [20 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.5), 500 mM NaCl, 5% (v/v) glycerol, and 0.5 mM TCEP] at the flow rate of 0.5 mL/min for 60 min. The data were collected and analyzed by Unicorn 7 software (GE Healthcare). An equal amount of BSA (Sigma-Aldrich) was analyzed under the same conditions for comparison.

The molecular weight (MW) and monomeric state of PtmA2 in solution was determined by size-exclusion chromatography using a HiLoad 16/600 (16 × 600 mm) column (GE Healthcare) connected to a GE Healthcare ÄKTA pure HPLC system. The column was pre-equilibrated with two column volumes of 50 mM Tris, pH 8.0, containing 300 mM NaCl, and calibrated with ribonuclease A (13.7 kDa), ovalbumin (44 kDa), conalbumin (75 kDa), aldolase (158 kDa), and ferritin (440 kDa). The chromatography was carried out at 4 °C at a flow rate of 1 mL·min−1. Data analysis was performed using the Unicorn 7.0.2 software (GE Healthcare).

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.
