[ccp4bb] Na acetate buffer, purification of a high pI protein...wash H6 collumn with 1+M NaCl

2012-03-02 Thread Paul Kraft
I have purified dozens of very high pI viral proteins, and I can't stress enough the requirement to wash your protein with at least 1M NaCl after binding it to the histidine collumn. DNA fragments often require a 2M NaCl wash. High pI proteins are very soluble. Dr. Paul Kraft Struc

Forgot to add, a 150aa dna binding protein should only need a minimal hexahistidine tagthese proteins are typically very soluble and express well. Adding a GST or sumo tag is overkill. Dr. Paul Kraft Structural Biologist cell 586-596-2770 email: haresea...@yahoo.com email

Try taking the detergents out of your solublization buffer (that is if you know it's not a membrane protein) and only extract the buffer soluble portion. If you have a tag try switching the tag to a different terminus. Dr. Paul Kraft Structural Biologist cell 586-596-2770 email: ha
