Purification of GST fusion proteins in E.coli GST融合蛋白纯化，方法二

GST Protein Prep.Ver.2

1)Grow 50ml of culture in LB or TB antibiotic o/n at 37℃ shaker.

2)Dilute culture in LB or TB antibiotic 1:10

3)Grow 3hrs at 37℃.

4)Induce culture by adding 0.4 mM IPTG final concentration.(For 50 ml final culture add 20 μl of 1M IPTG).

5)Grow at 25℃ for 1 hr.

6)Spin 5 min at 5 K

7)Wash pellet with half volume of cold H2O.(For 50 ml culture use 25 ml H2O.)

8)Wash bacteria again.

9)Resuspend in 1 ml of resuspension buffer per 50 ml of culture.

Resuspension Buffer- NETN protease inhibitors

20 mM Tris pH 8.0

100 mM NaCl

1 mM EDTA

0.5% NP-40 or Triton-X

1 μg/ml Aproteinin

1 μg/ml PMSF

1 μg/ml Benzaminide

Note: Tim has 100x stock of protease inhibitors.

10)Sonicate for 2x for 10 seconds in cold room.

11)Pellet debris by spinning at 4℃ (Easiest way is to put samples in multiple eppendorfs and spin in cold room at max for 2 min.

Binding of Fusion Protein to Beads

1)Pipette 400 μl of GST-Sepharose into Eppendorf

2)Spin beads 15 sec @ 8,000 RPM

3)Wash beads 2x with 4℃ NETN

4)Resuspend pellet in 320 μl of NETN (Final volume will be ~550 μl)and put into 4 eppendorfs.

5)Add 300 μl of resuspension buffer and 75 μl of E.Coli.GST Lysate to each tube.

6)Incubate for 30 min while rocking in cold room.

7)Spin 15 seconds at 8,000 rpm.

8)Wash 3x with ~600 μl of resuspension buffer

9)Remove supernatant and resuspend in appropriate volume resuspension buffer.(You can add this directly to SDS load buffer for running on a gel.)
