Ni nta agarose resin

Manufactured by Qiagen
Sourced in Germany, United States, Denmark, Netherlands

Ni-NTA agarose resin is a chromatography material used for the purification of recombinant proteins. It consists of nickel-nitrilotriacetic acid (Ni-NTA) immobilized on agarose beads. The Ni-NTA functional group binds to histidine-tagged proteins, allowing their capture and purification.

BNI1 DNA template was obtained using a T7 promoter cloned to the 5’ end of BNI1. DNA template was extracted and transcribed using standard procedures. GAR-1ΔN was purified on Ni-NTA agarose resin (Qiagen) and stored in Ni-elution buffer at −80°C. LAF-1 purification was performed following Elbaum-Garfinkle et al6 (link). LAF-1 was purified on Ni-NTA agarose resin (Qiagen) followed by a HiTrap Heparin column (GE) and stored in Heparin elution buffer.

(amplitude 60). After centrifugation, the inclusion bodies were washed and solubilized in a buffer containing 6 M urea, 10 mM K 2 HPO 4 , pH 8.2, and 3 mM β-mercaptoethanol. The LOX and LOX-v2 recombinant proteins were then purified using the Ni-NTA agarose resins (Qiagen, Hilden, Germany) according to the manufacturer's suggestion. The eluted LOX and LOX-v2 proteins were collected and refolded through stepwise dialysis in a buffer containing 10 mM K 2 HPO 4 , pH 9.6, 200 μM CuCl 2 , and 2% sodium N-lauroylsarcosinate and then in a buffer containing 10 mM K 2 HPO 4 , pH 9.6, and 5 μM CuCl 2 . The protein samples were further dialyzed in 10 mM K HPO 4 , pH 9.6. The dialyzed proteins were lyophilized in the presence of 10 mM trehalose in a freeze dryer (Labconco, Kansas City, MO, USA). All purification and refolding procedures were performed at 4℃. The purity and sizes of the LOX and LOX-v2 proteins were determined by SDS-PAGE.

The recombinant proteins were purified in two steps: affinity chromatography and SEC. 6His-tagged proteins were affinity-purified using Gravity Flow Chromatography columns (Bio-Rad) loaded with Ni-NTA agarose resin (Qiagen). Strep-tagged proteins were affinity-purified on an ÄKTA Purifier using StrepTrap HP columns (GE Healthcare). Both the 6His- and Strep-tagged proteins were then further purified by SEC on an ÄKTA Purifier using a Superdex 200 16/600 GL column (GE Healthcare), and simultaneously buffer-exchanged into 50 mM HEPES pH 7.5, 150 mM NaCl.
SeMet-labeled PilA and PilC for phasing were purified as above, but the bacteria were grown in chemically defined medium containing SeMet. 15N and/or 13C-labeled PilA for NMR analysis was purified as above, but the bacteria were grown in M9 medium supplemented with 15NH4Cl and/or 13C-labeled glucose.

Cell lysates were prepared by passive lysis on ice (lysis buffer: 50 mM Tris-HCl pH 7.4, 150 mM NaCl, 1 mM EDTA, 1% TRITON X-100 and proteasome inhibitor cocktail) followed by centrifugation at 12,000 rpm for 15 min at 4°C to remove cell debris. Immunoblot analyses followed standard protocols [39 (link)]. Where indicated, FLAG or HA tagged proteins were immunoprecipiated using anti-Flag affinity gel (Sigma Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA) or anti-HA antibody-conjugated protein G agarose (GE health care, Stockholm, Sweden) respectively. HIS-tagged proteins were captured by Ni-NTA Agarose resin (Qiagen, Valencia, CA, USA). For immunoprecipitation of endogenous TRAF2, anti-TRAF2 agarose (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Santa Cruz, CA, USA) was used.

Recombinant human (rh) FAM20C WT- and D478A-V5/His proteins were generated and purified in the same manner as we previously reported40 (link). Briefly, 293 cells were transfected with the pc3.1-FAM20C WT- or D478A-V5/His vector, and the clones derived from G418-resistant cells were isolated. Conditioned media were collected from each clone (out of 10 clones), and IP-WB analysis was performed with anti-V5 antibody. The clone which synthesized the highest level of rhFAM20C-V5/His protein was further cultured, the conditioned media were collected, and rhFAM20C WT- or D478A-V5/His protein was purified using a Ni-NTA agarose resin (Qiagen). The purified each rhFAM20C protein was pooled, dialyzed against distilled water, lyophilized and dissolved in distilled water. The protein concentration was measured using a DC protein assay kit and it was kept at −20 °C until use. The purity of the rhFAM20C WT- or D478A-V5/His protein was assessed by 4–12% SDS-PAGE stained with CBB and by WB analyses with anti-V5 and anti-FAM20C antibodies. The presence of hFAM20C was also confirmed by Mass Spectrometry analysis (data not shown).

BL21 (DE3) E.coli cells (EMD Millipore) were transformed with plasmids encoding MBP-LOVSoc or GB1-ORAI1-CT, and grown at 37ºC in LB medium with 100 mg/L of ampicillin. Protein expression was induced by the addition of 500 μM IPTG when OD600 of the culture reached between 0.6 and 0.8. After IPTG induction, MBP-LOVSoc was incubated at 16ºC for additional 6–8 hr, whilst GB1-ORAI1CT incubated at 37ºC for 3–4 hr. Harvested cells were resuspended in 1X Phosphate Buffered Saline (PBS) and sonicated. The cellular debris was clarified by centrifugation. For His6-tagged GB1-ORAI1-CT, the cell lysates were applied to Ni2+-nitrilotriacetic acid (Ni-NTA)-agarose resin (Qiagen). Bound recombinant proteins were eluted in PBS containing 250 mM imidazole and 1 mM TCEP. MBP and MBP-LOVSoc were purified through affinity purification with amylose resin (New England Biolabs) and finally eluted by PBS buffer containing 25 mM maltose and 1 mM TCEP. The proteins were further purified by gel filtration on Superose 6 10/300 GL or Superdex 200 10/300 GL columns (GE Healthcare).

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.
