Anti flag beads

Manufactured by Merck Group
Sourced in United States

Anti-FLAG beads are a type of affinity resin used for the purification and detection of proteins tagged with the FLAG epitope. They consist of agarose beads coated with a high-affinity anti-FLAG monoclonal antibody. The beads can capture and isolate FLAG-tagged proteins from complex samples, enabling their subsequent analysis and characterization.

N‐terminal Flag‐tagged full‐length DDX21 and its mutants or truncated DDX21 helicase core and C‐terminal HA‐tagged full‐length NS1 were cotransfected into HEK293T cells. Cells were collected after 48 h post‐transfection and lysed in a buffer consisting of 25 × 10−3m Tris‐HCl 7.5, 150 × 10−3m NaCl, 5% glycerol, 0.1 × 10−3m DTT supplemented with complete EDTA‐free protease inhibitor cocktail tablets (Roche, Basel, Switzerland). After centrifugation, the cell supernatants were used for co‐IP assay with anti‐Flag beads (Sigma‐Aldrich, Saint Louis, USA) and the elutes from anti‐Flag beads were then loaded to SDS‐PAGE and transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane for sequential immunoblotting analysis with anti‐Flag M2‐HRP or anti‐HA‐HRP antibodies Sigma‐Aldrich, Saint Louis, USA).

BL21 (DE3) E. coli cells were co-transformed with both pET17-twin-strep-C16 and pET28b-flag-C4 and grown in standard LB medium supplemented with ampicillin and kanamycin. Protein expression was induced upon the addition of IPTG at 0.5 mM final concentration once cells had reached an optical density (600 nm) of 0.8–1.0 and the temperature had been reduced from 37 to 16 °C. After growth overnight, cells were pelleted by centrifugation and then resuspended in buffer A (50 mM HEPES-KOH pH 7.5, 500 mM NaCl, 5% (w/v) glycerol, 0.5 mM TCEP), supplemented with lysozyme, benzonase nuclease (Merck Life Sciences) and cOmpleteTM EDTA-free protease inhibitor (Roche). Cells were lysed by sonication and cleared by centrifugation.
Pull-downs were performed using the cell lysate from the C16 and C4 co-expression. The lysate was divided in half, and then applied to either Strep-Tactin beads (IBA, catalog number 2-1613-002, 1 ml to obtain a bed volume of 50 µl) or Anti-Flag beads (Merck, catalog number M8823, 100 µl to obtain a bed volume of 50 µl). After extensive washing, proteins retained on the beads were eluted with the addition of either biotin or flag peptide respectively and the eluted proteins analysed by SDS-PAGE and immunoblotting with either anti-strep (Merck, catalog number SAB27002216, 1:7000 dilution) or anti-flag antibodies (Merck, catalog number F3165, 1:5000 dilution).

The semi-in vitro ubiquitination assay was performed as described previously (Wang et al. 2013) (link). HIS-GCN20 coupled to Ni-IDA Beads (Smart-Lifesciences, SA003025) was incubated with protein extracts of Col-0 or wee1 in ubiquitination buffer (25 mm Tris-HCl, pH 7.5, 10 mm MgCl 2 , 10 mm NaCl, 10 mm ATP, 5 mm DTT, and 100 µm MG132). After 4 h of incubation, the beads were washed 3 times with RIPA buffer containing 500 mm NaCl and boiled in 2 × SDS loading buffer at 100 °C for 8 min, followed by immunoblotting using anti-ubiquitin antibody (1:1,000, Cell Signaling Technology, 3933).
In vivo ubiquitination assays GCN20-FLAG was expressed in Col-0 or wee1 protoplasts as described previously (Yoo et al. 2007 (link)). After 12 h of incubation in the absence or presence of 5 mm HU, total proteins were extracted from the samples using extraction buffer (100 mm Tris-HCl, pH 7.0, 150 mm NaCl, 0.1% Nonidet P-40, 1 mm PMSF, 100 μm MG132, and protease inhibitor cocktail) and precipitated by anti-FLAG beads (Merck, M8823), followed by immunoblotting using anti-ubiquitin (1:1,000, Cell Signaling Technology, 3933), anti-FLAG (1:4,000, Sigma-Aldrich, A8593), and anti-actin (1:2,000, Agrisera, AS132640) antibodies.

The ECa109 cells expressing Flag-USP3 or HA-Aurora A were first washed on a 6 cm culture plate with PBS buffer. The cells on each plate were then scraped off and were lysed with 1 ml of ice-cold RIPA lysis buffer. Cell lysates were collected and anti-Flag beads (Sigma, USA) or anti-HA beads (Sigma, USA) were added. The resulting immunoprecipitate was shaken overnight at 4 °C. The beads were washed and loaded into the loading buffer, and the levels of bound proteins were detected by SDS-PAGE followed by western blotting.

Purification of Heterologous Proteins

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
tsA 201 cells, which are SV40-transformed HEK 293 cells, were used because they express heterologous proteins at high levels. Cells were grown in 162-cm2 flasks and transfected using calcium phosphate. Pretreatments with (+)SKF10047 and BD1047 were for 2 h at 37°C, and stimulation with 5 µM thapsigargin was for 30 min at 20°C. Cells were extracted in 25 ml of ice-cold medium, and all subsequent steps were performed at 4°C. The suspension was centrifuged at 1,000 g for 5 min, and pelleted cells were solubilized for 60 min in 500 µl TS. After centrifugation (50,000 g for 60 min), 50 µl of the supernatant was removed for analysis of total expression (input), and 450 µl was incubated with 30 µl anti-Myc (EZ View Red) or anti-FLAG beads (Sigma-Aldrich) for 3 h with rotation. Protein–bead complexes were isolated (20,800 g for 10 min) and washed three times in TS, and proteins were eluted either with 50 µl of the peptides (1 mg/ml; Sigma-Aldrich), to which the anti-Myc or anti-FLAG antibodies had been raised, or with 50 µl Laemmli buffer. The eluted samples were analyzed by SDS-PAGE followed by immunoblotting. For immunoblots, lanes were loaded with 10 µl of the 500-µl sample (2% of the entire sample) for the measurement of input and with 10 or 20 µl of the 50-µl eluate for measurements of immunoprecipitation.

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.
