Binding Affinity of ABCG2 and PCA

Purified ABCG2 proteins were obtained from Sino Biological Inc. and were then desalinated using the AKTA protein purification system (Cytiva). Subsequently, proteins were dissolved in buffer solution (200 mM HEPES, 2 mM NaCl and 0.5% DMSO) and were conjugated with sodium acetate solution (pH 4.0) using the Biacore T200 system (Cytiva). Following conjugation with human metal-organic framework, an ethanolamine solution (1.0 M; Shanghai Ruji Biological Technology, Co., Ltd.) was used to block the uncoupled proteins at 28˚C for 6 h. The chip was then added to a buffer solution for 10 h. PCA was dissolved in the buffer solution (10 mmol/l HEPES, 150 mmol/l NaCl and 3 mmol/l EDTA) of the mobile phase. The binding constants between ABCG2 proteins and PCA were determined using a multi-cycle model. The flow rate of the mobile phase, the binding time and the dissociation time were set at 30 µl/sec, 240 and 300 sec, respectively.

Purification of Galectin-1 Protein

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
After the Chemical and Mechanical Lysis process, the lysate was submitted to 3 steps of purification by chromatography in an AKTA Protein Purification System (Cytiva) to obtain a buffered protein solution containing only Galectin-1.
The first step is based on affinity chromatography on agarose-lactose columns (Sigma-Aldrich), previously equilibrated with equilibration buffer (1XPBS, 14mM 2-ME, pH 7.4). After injection of the protein solution, the affinity column "binders" were washed and eluted with elution buffer (1X PBS containing lactose and 2-ME pH 7.4).
The protein peak was collected and 20μM of iodoacetamide (Sigma-Aldrich; I1149) was added to the solution, keeping it under incubation at 4 o C, protected from light, overnight.
After this incubation, the solution was subjected to "size exclusion" chromatography (Sephadex G-25, Cytiva) to remove the free salts of iodoacetamide and lactose. The last chromatographic step was the removal of bacterial endotoxins (LPS). To this end, the preparations were subjected to chromatography using LPS affinity resin (PIERCE High-Capacity Endotoxin Removal Resin column -Thermo Scientific). After all the chromatographic steps, the protein concentration was determined by spectrometry (Abs 280nm) and expressed in milligrams of protein per milliliter (mg/mL) and were submitted to sterilizing filtration (0.22 μm PES membrane).

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.
