G sepharose beads

Manufactured by GE Healthcare
Sourced in Germany, Sweden

G-sepharose beads are a solid-support material used in affinity chromatography for the purification of biomolecules. They consist of agarose beads to which Protein G, a bacterial protein with high affinity for immunoglobulins, has been covalently coupled. G-sepharose beads can be used to capture and isolate antibodies and antibody-containing samples from complex mixtures.

Subcellular fractionation was prepared as previously described [28 (link)]. For obtaining the nuclear fraction, the pellets were incubated in the ice-cold nuclei isolation buffer (10 mM HEPES pH 7.9, 1,5 mM MgCl2, 10 mM KCl, 0.5 mM DTT, 1 % Triton X-100, 15 % protease inhibitor cocktail Complete Mini, 1 mM PMSF). After the separation steps, the nuclear and cytoplasmic fractions were obtained and subjected to immunoblot analysis. Antibodies against β-tubulin and Lamin B were used to validate the purity of the cytoplasmic and nuclear fractions, respectively. For immunoprecipitation (IP) assay, antibody against PIP5K1α was used to pull down the immunocomplexes, and antibody to IgG (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA, USA) was used as a negative control. 500 μg of freshly prepared protein lysates were incubated with the antibody of interests and 30 μl of G-sepharose beads (GE Healthcare) for 3 hours at 4°C.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
We performed chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) as described in Ref.38 (link). A2058 cells were cross-linked for 10 min by 1% formaldehyde and fragmented by a sonicator (UD-211; TOMY SEIKO, Tokyo, Japan). The samples were immunoprecipitated with 4 μg of antibodies against H3K27ac (05-1334, Merck Millipore, Billerica, MA, USA). We used protein A-sepharose beads and G-sepharose beads (GE Healthcare, Barrington, Ill, USA) to immunoprecipitate the fragments. Chromatin immunoprecipitation sequence (ChIP-Seq) libraries were made using a KAPA Hyper Prep kit (Roche, Wilmington, MA, US) with 1 ng of ChIP DNA. Libraries were size-selected prior to PCR amplification using AMPure XP beads (Beckman Coulter, Brea, CA, USA). Multiplexed libraries were run on an Illumina HiSeq 2500 genome sequencer (Illumina Inc. San Diego, CA, USA) using the 50-base pair single read method. The nucleotide sequence data reported are available in the DDBJ Sequenced Read Archive under the accession numbers DRX230605 and DRX230606.

Kinase Assay with ABL1 Immunoprecipitation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For the kinase assay, ABL1 proteins were immunoprecipitated at a ratio of 3.5 μL ABL1 antibody per 0.8 mg whole cell extract and 65 μL slurry of G-sepharose beads (GE-Healthcare). For each kinase reaction with 5 mg FSBA-treated and desalted cellular protein fraction, an equivalent of ABL1-Kin and ABL1-PP immunopurified from 3.2 mg total HEK293 cell lysate was prepared. Beads were washed 2× with IP-buffer and 1× with KA buffer (40 mM Tris-HCl pH 7.5, 10 mM MgCl2, 1 mM DTT), pooled and resuspended in KA buffer. The beads were equally split into eppendorf tubes, 5 mg FSBA-treated cellular protein fraction added and the kinase reaction initiated by adding ‘light’ (SIGMA-Aldrich) or ‘heavy’ 18O2-ATP (Organisch-Chemisches Institut, UZH, Switzerland)29 (link) at a final concentration of 1 mM. After incubation for 30, 90 and 150 min at RT (~23 °C) on a rotary wheel, the reaction was quenched by the addition of solid urea to a final concentration of 8 M. Samples were vortexed and stored on ice.

For immunoprecipitation (IP), 400 µg of total protein from brain extract (10% w/v) was diluted in a total volume of 1000 µL. G sepharose beads (GE Healthcare) were washed 3× with PBS and 50 µL per 500‐µL diluted brain homogenate were incubated with 1 µL of Aβ antibody 3552 (kindly provided by E. Kremmer, Ludwig Maximilians University, Munich, Germany) 33 or amyloid oligomeric‐specific antibody A11 (A11, Millipore) overnight by 4°C shaking head over heel. The supernatant was reused. This experiment was repeated until the remaining oligomers resulted in greatly reduced band intensities as detected by western blot probed with Aβ antibody 6E10 (Covance). The cleared supernatant was used for the experiments.

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.
