His-Fc-G67 polypeptide was prepared by our previous methods with some modifications [36 (link)]. Fc-G67 contains the amino acid sequence derived from C1 region of Protein G, which strongly binds to IgG Fc region. A DNA fragment encoding the forward linker, C1 region, and the backward linker cysteine was synthesized by FASMAC Co., Ltd. (Kanagawa, Japan) and was then cloned into pET302/NT-His (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA). The recombinant proteins were produced in BL21(DE3) cells (Thermo Fisher Scientific) using MagicMediaTM E coli expression medium (Thermo Fisher Scientific) and were purified with TALON Metal Affinity Resin (Takara Bio Inc., Shiga, Japan).
