Ni nta beads
Ni-NTA beads are a type of affinity chromatography resin used for the purification of His-tagged proteins. They consist of nickel-nitrilotriacetic acid (Ni-NTA) covalently attached to agarose beads. The nickel ions on the beads bind to the histidine residues on the target protein, allowing it to be captured and separated from other components in the sample.

Identification of Proteins Interacting with Recombinant Shell Protein
Affinity Purification of rVDCP Interactors
After binding to rVDCP, the Ni-NTA beads were washed with binding buffer (20 mM Tris-HCl, 150 mM NaCl, and 10 mM imidazole, pH 8.0) incubated with total proteins extracted from the shell of M. coruscus [8] for 4 h at 4°C, and then washed with elution buffer (20 mM Tris-HCl, 300 mM NaCl, and 300 mM imidazole, pH 8.0). Eluted protein samples were analyzed using LC-MS /MS after digestion with trypsin. LC-MS/MS experiments were performed on a Q Exactive Plus MS coupled with an Easy nLC (Thermo Scientific). The MS data were analyzed using MaxQuant software (version 1.6.1.0) and searched against the mantle transcriptome database of M. coruscus (accession number: SRX792025) [8] . The results retrieved from the database search were filtered and exported with a < 1% false discovery rate (FDR) at the peptide-spectrum-matched level, and protein level, respectively. The Ni-NTA beads without binding to rVDCP were used as a control, and the identified nonspecific proteins pulled down by blank Ni-NTA beads were removed accordingly from the list of identified protein partners of rVDCP.

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.
