Hitrap nhs sepharose column

Manufactured by GE Healthcare
Sourced in Sweden

The HiTrap NHS-activated Sepharose column is a pre-packed, ready-to-use column designed for the covalent immobilization of ligands containing primary amino groups. The column matrix is based on highly cross-linked agarose beads, which provide a porous structure and high chemical and physical stability. The N-hydroxysuccinimide (NHS) ester groups on the column surface allow for the coupling of ligands to the matrix, enabling the capture and purification of target molecules from complex samples.

Production and Purification of Affibody Constructs

The affibody constructs were expressed at 37 °C in shake flask cultures of Escherichia coli BL21 Star (DE3) (New England Biolabs) in tryptic soy broth containing 100 µg/mL ampicillin. When OD600 was between 0.6 and 1, protein expression was induced by addition of 1 mM isopropyl-β-D-1-thiogalactopyranoside (Appolo Scientific, Stockport, UK). Protein production was carried out for 3 h, after which the cells were harvested by centrifugation and lysed by sonication. The supernatants were clarified by centrifugation and filtration through a 0.45 µm Acrodisc syringe filter (Pall, Port Washington, NY, USA). The recombinantly expressed affibody constructs were purified by affinity chromatography on a HiTrap NHS sepharose column (GE Healthcare, Uppsala, Sweden) with immobilized human serum albumin (HSA) using an ÄKTA system (GE Healthcare), essentially as previously described [44 (link)] including elution with 500 mM acetic acid, pH 2.6. The fractions containing affibody constructs were pooled and lyophilized.
ZHER2:V2 was produced and purified as previously described [45 (link)].

Antigen Immunization and IgG Purification

The NetB toxin was used for antigen immunization as described elsewhere [2 (link)]. Briefly, the toxin (200 µg/ml) was detoxified by
treatment with formalin at a final concentration of 0.4% (v/v) and kept at 37°C for 7
days. After intraperitoneal administration of 20 µg of toxoid to mice (ddY strain, male 4
weeks old; SLC Co., Ltd., Hamamatsu, Japan), the animals were kept under observation for 4
days to examine their survival status. For the first immunization, rabbits (Japanese
white, male, 14 weeks old, Oriental Yeast, Tokyo, Japan) were injected with 20 µg of
toxoid intradermally, emulsified in an equal volume of Freund’s complete adjuvant (Wako
Pure Chemical Co., Osaka, Japan). Subsequently, the animals were injected with the same
dose of toxoid emulsified in an equal volume of Freund’s incomplete adjuvant (Wako Pure
Chemical Co.) intradermally 3 times every 2 weeks. Two weeks after the fourth
immunization, 20 µg of NetB toxoid alone was inoculated subcutaneously as a booster. Two
weeks after the booster, whole blood was collected from the heart under anesthesia, and
serum was collected. The IgG fraction was isolated from the rabbit serum as described by
Harlow and Lane [18 (link)]. Thereafter, the IgG against
the toxin was purified with a HiTrap NHS Sepharose column (GE Healthcare) according to the
manufacturer’s instructions.

Production and Purification of Affibody Fusion Proteins

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The affibody/ABD fusion proteins were expressed in Escherichia coli BL21 Star (DE3) (New England Biolabs), grown in tryptic soy broth supplemented with 5 g/L yeast extract and 100 μg/mL ampicillin. The cells were grown at 37 °C in shake flasks. Expression was induced by adding 1 mM of isopropyl β-d-1-thiogalactopyranoside (Appolo Scientific, Stockport, UK) when the OD600 was between 0.6 and 1.0. The cells were cultured for another 3 h at 37 °C. The cell suspension was centrifuged and the cytoplasmic fraction was released by sonication. The cell lysate was clarified by passage through a 0.45 µm Acrodisc syringe filter (Pall, Port Washington, NY, USA). Human serum albumin-based affinity chromatography on a HiTrap NHS sepharose column (GE Healthcare, Uppsala, Sweden) was performed to isolate the ABD fused affibody constructs. The purification was carried out on an ÄKTA system (GE Healthcare Life Sciences, Uppsala, Sweden), essentially as previously described [20 (link)]. Elution was carried out with 500 mM acetic acid (pH = 2.6). The fractions containing affibody fusion proteins were pooled and lyophilized.

Protein Expression and Purification in E. coli

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Escherichia coli (BL21 Star (DE3)) (Merck Millipore, Billerica, Massachusetts, USA) was used as a host for protein expression. Overnight cultures of cells harboring the expression plasmids were prepared and diluted 1:100 in tryptic soy Broth (TSB) medium with yeast extract [31 (link)] and grown at 37 °C. When OD600 reached approximately 1.5, protein expression was induced by addition of Isopropyl β-D-1-thiogalactopyranoside to a final concentration of 1 mM. The cells were grown a further 2.5 h, after which they were harvested by centrifugation. The cell pellets were subsequently resuspended in TST-buffer (25 mM Tris(hydroxymethyl) aminomethane, 1 mM EDTA, 200 mM NaCl, 0.05% Tween 20 pH 8.0) supplemented with Complete EDTA-free protease inhibitor cocktail (Roche Diagnostic, Basel, Switzerland) and then broken by sonication. The fusion toxins were purified on an HiTrap NHS sepharose column (GE Healthcare Bio-Sciences, Uppsala, Sweden) with immobilized HSA, as previously described [31 (link)]. The proteins were eluted with 0.5 M acetic acid (pH 2.6) followed by buffer exchange to phosphate buffered saline (PBS). The molecular masses of the eluted proteins were determined by liquid chromatography electrospray ionization mass spectrometry on a Bruker impact II instrument (Agilent Technologies, Santa Clara, CA, USA), as previously described [31 (link)].

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.
