Akta protein purification system
The AKTA protein purification system is a versatile and automated liquid chromatography system designed for the efficient purification of proteins. It provides a reliable and reproducible platform for the separation and purification of a wide range of biomolecules, including enzymes, antibodies, and other recombinant proteins. The system's core function is to facilitate the purification process through advanced automated features and high-performance fluidic components.

Binding Affinity of ABCG2 and PCA
Purification of Galectin-1 Protein
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.
