Glutathione sepharose 4 fast flow resin

Manufactured by GE Healthcare
Sourced in United States, Sweden

Glutathione Sepharose 4 Fast Flow resin is a pre-packed chromatography medium designed for the affinity purification of glutathione S-transferase (GST) fusion proteins. The resin consists of cross-linked agarose beads to which the glutathione ligand is covalently coupled. This provides a high-capacity, fast-flow matrix for the efficient capture and purification of GST-tagged proteins.

Recombinant GST-Tev-TNPO1 was purified as described previously (Chook and Blobel, 1999 (link)) with modifications. In brief, E. coli BL21-CodonPlus(DE3)-RIL cells (Agilent) were transformed with GST-Tev-TNPO1 plasmid and expression was induced overnight at 25°C with 1 mM IPTG. Cells were pelleted and resuspended in Tris buffer (50 mM Tris pH 7.5, 100 mM NaCl, 1 mM EDTA, 20% (v/v) glycerol, 2 mM DTT, supplemented with protease inhibitors), then lysed by sonication. Cell lysate was then loaded onto glutathione Sepharose™ 4 Fast Flow resin (GE Healthcare), and washed with Tris buffer, followed by ATP buffer (50 mM Tris pH 7.5, 100 mM NaCl, 1 mM EGTA, 0.5 mM MgCl2, 5 mM ATP, 20% glycerol, 2 mM DTT, supplemented with protease inhibitors), then washed and eluted with Buffer A (20 mM imidazole, 75 mM NaCl, 1 mM EDTA, 20% (v/v) glycerol, 2 mM DTT). Finally, the protein was cleaved with Tev protease and purified on a HiTrap Q HP column (GE Healthcare) using a salt gradient. Purified protein was concentrated, flash frozen, and stored at −80°C.

All E. coli strains and plasmids used in this experiment are listed in Table 1 and Table 3, respectively. Protein expression was performed as described above (see, Bacterial strains, growth conditions and transformation). Bacteria were harvested by centrifugation and pellets were stored at -20°C. Pellets corresponding to similar amounts of protein, depending on the efficiency of protein expression, were mixed. In this way, approximately equal amounts of expressed protein were combined. Pellets were resuspended in 15 ml GST-buffer containing PBS and cOmplete™ protease inhibitor cocktail (Roche) and the pellet from a culture expressing an untagged pilin was mixed with the pellet expressing a GST-tagged pilin. Combined pellets were lysed using a Stansted cell disrupter (Homogenising Systems Limited) and spun at 20,000 g for 30 min at 4°C. Empty gravity flow columns (Bio-Rad) were filled with 0.5 ml Glutathione Sepharose™ 4 Fast Flow resin (GE Healthcare) and equilibrated with GST-buffer. Bacterial supernatant was passed over the column, followed by a washing step with 15 ml GST-buffer. Elution was performed with 0.7 ml of GST-buffer containing 10 mM L-glutathione (Sigma). Samples were analyzed by SDS-PAGE and Coomassie brilliant blue staining and immunoblotting for ComGD, ComGE and ComGG.

The S. pombe E1 protein Uba1 and E2 enzymes (Ubc1, Ubc2, Ubc4, Ubc7, Ubc8, and Ubc13) were expressed in E. coli strain BL21 (DE3) RIL and purified similarly as described [21 (link)]. Cultures containing the Mms2-pGEX-6P-1 plasmid were grown at 37 °C to OD600 ~ 1 and induced by 1 mM IPTG at 37 °C for 3 h. The cell pellet was resuspended in buffer A containing 20 mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.0), 150 mM NaCl, 10% glycerol, 1 mM DTT, and protease inhibitors.

Proteins were eluted by gravity using buffer A containing 10 mM glutathione. The GST tag was cleaved off using PreScission protease overnight at 4 °C. The protein mixture was then subjected to gel filtration on Superdex 75 (GE Healthcare) in buffer A. Fractions containing Mms2 were concentrated and snap-frozen in liquid nitrogen. The Nse1/3/4 trimer and its vRING mutant were prepared as described [22 (link)]. The S. pombe Nse1 protein, its mutants, and Nse1/3 dimer were expressed and purified similarly as in the case of human Nse1/3 dimer [22 (link)].

The P proteins of different GII.4 strains were made as described previously [19 (link)]. A cysteine-containing peptide was linked to the N (CNGRC-P) or C (P-CDCRGDCFC) terminus of the P domains to enhance P-particle formation. The cDNAs encoding the capsid P domain without the hinge were cloned into the expression vector pGEX-4T-1 (Amersham Biosciences, Piscataway, NJ) between Bam HI and Not I sites. After sequence confirmation, the P proteins were expressed in E. coli following previously described procedures [35 (link),39 (link),40 (link)]. Briefly, the BL21 cultures were induced by IPTG (isopropyl-β-D-thiogalactopyranoside) (0.4 mM) at room temperature (22°C) overnight. The recombinant P domain-GST fusion proteins were purified using Glutathione Sepharose 4 Fast Flow resin (GE Healthcare life Sciences, NJ, USA) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. GST was removed from the P proteins by thrombin (GE Healthcare life Sciences, NJ, USA) cleavage on beads at room temperature overnight.

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.
