C4 column

Manufactured by Phenomenex
Sourced in Italy, United States

The C4 column is a type of high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) column used for the separation and purification of various chemical compounds. It features a stationary phase with a C4 (butyl) functional group, which allows for the separation of moderately hydrophobic molecules. The C4 column is commonly used in a wide range of applications, including pharmaceutical, biochemical, and environmental analysis.

The chromophore AE of LDM was separated through a C4 column (150 × 10 mm; Phenomenex, Torrance, CA, USA) by HPLC. Then, the AE‐containing solution was mixed with the anti‐CD30‐LDP solution at a 1 : 3 molecular ratio and incubated at 4 °C for 12 h by gently shaking to form the enediyne‐integrated ADC anti‐CD30‐LDM. Next, free AE was removed by ultrafiltration centrifugation. The composition of the ADC was finally confirmed by reverse‐phase HPLC using a C4 column (250 × 4.6 mm; Phenomenex).

hCox17 at 1 mg/mL was reduced in 50 mM Tris pH 8.4, NaCl 100 mM and 200 mM DTT over night at room temperature. To initiate folding, samples were loaded in a PD-10 desalting column previously equilibrated with 50 mM Tris pH 8.4, NaCl 100 mM. Selected concentrations of GSH, Glycerol, TFE and Mia40 were added to the collected fraction to modulate or enhance the folding kinetics. To follow the oxidative reaction, removed aliquots at selected times were quenched with 2% TFA and loaded in a Waters 2690 HPLC system with a C4 column (Phenomenex) 250 × 4.6 5
mm. A linear gradient of 20–35% of 0.1% TFA in acetonitrile was applied for 60 minutes at a flow-rate of 0.75 ml/min, Eluted species were monitored by a coupled Waters 2487 detector at 214 nm and 280 nm wavelength. In the same way, a preparative VYDAC protein C4 was used to purify the intermediate species of the reaction. An increased 3 mL/min flow was applied to the same linear gradient of acetonitrile as above for 120 minutes. The purified species were identified by mass spectrometry and the reaction intermediate were quantified for the stop/go experiments in 50 mM Tris pH 8.4 NaCl 100 mM at 0.5 mg/mL14 (link),22 (link).

Recombinant mouse ameloblastin (rAmbn) and the variant delta 5 (AmbnΔ5), which lacks the sequence encoded by Exon 5, were expressed and purified following the method described in our recent publication (Su et al. 2019b (link)). Briefly, Ambn was expressed in Escherichia coli with Histidine (His), Thioredoxin (Trx), and S-tags in BL21, using pET-32a plasmid (Novagen) with inserted mouse Ambn gene (GenBank No. AAB93765.1). The expressed protein was purified using Nickel affinity chromatography (Ni-NTA Agarose, Qiagen), followed by dialysis through 10K MWCO dialysis membrane (SnakeSkin™ Dialysis Tubing, ThermoFisher). His-, Trx-, and S-tags were cleaved by Enterokinase (light chain, New England Biolabs), and were removed by a reversed phase High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) system (Varian Prostar system with Agilent OpenLab CDS software). Phenomenex C4 column (10 × 250 mm, 5 μm) was used, and proteins were eluted with an increasing gradient of 32–72% acetonitrile over 80 min, at a flow rate of 1.5 ml/min. Collected proteins were lyophilized and characterized with SDS-PAGE. The heat denaturation of rAmbn was performed by heating rAmbn at 95°C for 10 min.

Wild type (rP172) and variant recombinant porcine amelogenin
proteins were expressed in E. coli strain BL21(DE3)pLysS
(Stratagene, CA), and precipitated by 20% ammonium sulfate following the method
described previously [19] , [20] . The ammonium sulfate precipitate was dissolved in
water containing 0.1% TFA and purified using a high performance liquid
chromatography (HPLC) system (Varian, CA) equipped with a Phenomenex C4 column

were lyophilized, kept at −20 °C, and dissolved in water before
use. Our group designed three double-variant strains of amelogenin; rP172(W45Y,
W161Y) will be referred to as rP172(W25), rP172(W25Y, W161Y) will be referred to

MCP-1 ([CYNFTNRKISVQRLASYRRITSSK]), scrambled MCP-1 ([CYNSLVFRIRNSTQRKYRASIST]), and Col-1 ([CVPMSMRGG]) peptides were synthesized using standard Fmoc-mediated solid phase peptide synthesis on an automatic PS3 peptide synthesizer (Protein Technologies, Tucson, AZ, USA).[42 ,43 ,68 (link)] Col-1 peptide was N-capped with an acetyl group and cleaved from a rink amide resin using trifluoroacetic acid:1,2 ethanedithiol:H2O:triisopropylsilane at 94:2.5:2.5:1 volume ratios. MCP-1 and scrambled MCP-1 peptides were cleaved from Wang resin using the same chemical cocktail. Cleaved peptides were precipitated with ice cold diethyl ether, lyophilized, and stored at −20 °C until purification using reverse-phase HPLC (Phenomenex, Torrance, CA, USA; Shimadzu, Kyoto, Japan). Peptides were purified at 55 °C in 0.1% formic acid in acetonitrile/water mixture using a C8 column (Phenomenex, Torrance, CA, USA) and characterized using MALDITOF mass spectral analysis (Bruker, Billerica, MA, USA). Peptides were conjugated to 1,2 distearoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine-N-[maleimide(polyethylene glycol)-2000], or DSPE-PEG(2000)-maleimide (Nanocs, New York, NY, USA) via a thioether linkage by adding a 10% molar excess of the peptide to lipid in water at a pH of 7. Conjugated amphiphiles were purified using a C4 column (Phenomenex, Torrance, CA, USA) and verified using MALDI-TOF.

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.
