Protein a beads

Manufactured by Merck Group
Sourced in United States, Germany

Protein A beads are a type of affinity chromatography resin used for the purification of antibodies. These beads are made of agarose or polymer matrices and have protein A immobilized on their surface. Protein A is a bacterial protein that binds specifically to the Fc region of immunoglobulins, particularly IgG. The beads can be used to capture and purify antibodies from complex mixtures, such as cell culture supernatants or serum samples.

Chromatin Immunoprecipitation in Hippocampus

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
ChIP was performed similarly to described methods (Renthal et al., 2008 (link); Tsankova et al., 2004 (link)). Hippocampi were subdissected and fixed in 1% formaldehyde. Samples were sonicated to generate genomic fragments 200–1000 bp in length and pre-cleared with Protein A beads (Millipore) prior to incubation with antibodies listed in Supplemental Table 1 at 4°C overnight. The antibody-chromatin complex was immunoprecipitated with Protein A beads and then washed with a series of buffers (Millipore), then chromatin was then eluted and reverse cross-linking was performed with Proteinase K. DNA was purified via phenol-chloroform extraction. Final DNA concentration was measured using the NanoDrop 2000. Quantitative PCR was performed with an ABI 7500 PCR machine using SYBR green as a fluorophore. Primers used to amplify the c-fos promoter and β-actin promoter are listed in Supplemental Table S2.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For the ChIP assay, 21-d-old Col-0, cau1, and 35S:EYFP-CAU1/cau1 plants grown under long-day conditions were harvested. Approximately 4 g of plant material was cross-linked for 20 min in 1% formaldehyde. ChIP assays were performed as previously described (Vartanian et al., 1994 (link); Ascenzi and Gantt, 1999 (link)). The sonicated chromatin extractions were immunoprecipitated overnight with antisymmetric dimethyl-H4R3 antibody (Abcam) for plants of Col-0 and cau1, with an anti-GFP (green fluorescent protein) antibody (Invitrogen) for plants of 35S:EYFP-CAU1/cau1, or without antibody. Incubation of chromatin with mouse IgG (Abcam) served as a mock immunoprecipitation control. Protein A beads (Millipore) were used to capture the immunocomplexes. After reverse cross-linking and proteinase-K digestion, the DNA was extracted with phenol-chloroform and then precipitated with ethanol. The immunoprecipitated DNA was subsequently used for qPCR. The sequences were amplified from –1388 to 646 bp of the ANAC055 gene and each DNA fragment was approximately 120 bp in length. Primers used for ChIP-qPCR were as follows: Region A (ANAC055-1), region B (ANAC055-2), region C (ANAC055-3), region D (ANAC055-8), region E (ANAC055-9), region F (ANAC055-10), region G (ANAC055-11), and the primer sequences are given in Table S1 at Dryad. TUB8 was used as a control (Mathieu et al., 2005 (link)).

Sirt1 over-expressing and control C3HT101/2 cells were lysed in lysis buffer (50mM TRIS-HCl, pH 7.4/1% NP-40, 0.25% Sodium deoxycholate/150 mM NaCl, 1mM EDTA/1mM PMSF supplemented with protease inhibitor and phosphatase inhibitor). Marrow from tibiae and femora was flushed with the same buffer, then cleared by centrifugation at 12,000 RPM for 15 min at 4°C. Immunoprecipitation was carried out by preclearing 1 μg of protein in 300 μl lysis buffer with 30 μl protein A beads (Millipore) for 1 h and incubating the lysates with 4 μl of the SIRT1 antibody (Millipore, 07-131), rotating over night at 4°C. For precipitation, 30 μl protein A agarose beads were added followed by incubation at 4°C for 3 h. Immunoprecipitates were washed extensively and eluted twice with x2 Laemmli buffer. Proteins were separated by SDS-PAGE and transferred to PVDF membranes (Millipore).

Simply, cells or tissues were lysed in buffer A (1% NP-40, 10% glycerol, 135 mM NaCl, 20 mM Tris, pH 8.0, supplemented with protein inhibitors). Lysates were added with 20 μl anti-Flag beads or 4 μg indicated antibody or control IgG and incubated overnight. For antibodies, Protein-A beads (Millipore) were added 2 h before washing with buffer A for four times.

After washed twice with cold PBS, cultured cells were collected and resuspended in RIP buffer (200 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.5; 20 mM MgCl2; 300 mM NaCl; 10% glycerol; 0.5% NP-40; 0.5% Triton-X 100) plus protease inhibitors and phosphatase inhibitors. Then cell suspensions were incubated on ice for 10 min and lysed by sonicator. After centrifugation at 14,000 × g for 10 min at 4 °C, cell lysates were incubated with primary antibodies or control IgG overnight at 4 °C, and further with protein A beads (Millipore, pre-treated with 5% bovine serum albumin in RIP buffer) for another 4 h. The beads were washed three times and boiled for 5 min in SDS-PAGE sample buffers to elute bound proteins for Western blotting.

ChIP analysis was performed using total root tissues of the wild-type and GL2pro-GFP-GL2/gl2-5 plants as described previously (Gendrel et al., 2005 (link)). Immunoprecipitation was performed using Protein A beads (Millipore), anti-GFP antibody (Abcam), and IgG serum (Millipore). Co-immunoprecipitated DNA containing a particular region was quantified by real-time PCR with primers shown in Supplemental Table S3. The quantified value from the co-immunoprecipitated DNA was first normalized to that from the input DNA. The relative enrichment fold was then calculated by dividing the normalized value using the anti-GFP antibodywith that using the IgG sample.

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.
