Immobilized Metal Ion Affinity Chromatography Protocols Protocol Links
Chelating Sepharose Fast Flow Protocol Immobilized metal ion affinity chromatography (IMAC) exploits a molecule’s affinity for chelated metal ions. The amino acid histidine present in many proteins forms complexes with transition metal ions such as Cu2+, Zn2+, Ni2+ and Fe3+. Chelating Sepharose™ Fast Flow with a suitable immobilized metal ion will therefore selectively retain proteins with exposed histidine.
Construction of Micro-Tip for Use in IMAC Protocol Protocol is the second step in a three-step process for the preparation and enrichment of phosphopeptides using immobilized metal affinity chromatography (IMAC) for the identification of the phosphopeptides by LCMS/ MS. This procedure describes the construction of microchromatographic columns, or micro-tips.
Lysis and Protein Extraction from WEHI-231 Cells with TriPure Isolation Reagent Protocol Protocol is the first step in a three-step process for the preparation and enrichment of phosphopeptides using immobilized metal affinity chromatography (IMAC) for the identification of the phosphopeptides by LC-MS/MS. This procedure is used to prepare protein extracts from WEHI-231 cells. This preparation method provides total cellular protein samples that are free of contaminating nucleic acids.
Optimization of Imidazole Concentrations for Immobilized Metal-Ion Affinity Chromatography Protocol Protocol for the optimization of imidazole concentrations for immobilized metal-ion affinity chromatography. Most samples from which histidine-tagged proteins are to be purified also contain endogenous protein contaminants that bind to the immobilized metal-ion affinity chromatography (IMAC) adsorbent. Usually, these proteins bind more weakly than the histidine-tagged protein.
Packing an IMAC Column Protocol Protocol for packing an IMAC column. Protocol describes a procedure for packing a 30-ml immobilized metal-ion affinity chromatography (IMAC) column with the aid of a pump.
Preparation and Enrichment of Phosphopeptides from Phosphotyrosine Protocol Protocol is specifically for the further enrichment of phosphopeptides from a phosphotyrosine pull-down. This is the final step for the preparation and enrichment of phosphopeptides using immobilized metal affinity chromatography (IMAC) for the identification of the phosphopeptides by liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS).
Preparation and Enrichment of Phosphopeptides Using IMAC and LC-MS/MS Protocol is the third step in a three-step process for the preparation and enrichment of phosphopeptides using immobilized metal affinity chromatography (IMAC) for the identification of the phosphopeptides by LCMS/ MS.
Preparation of a Prepacked IMAC Column Protocol Protocol for the preparation of a prepacked IMAC column. Purification of histidine-tagged proteins on a milligram scale can be performed conveniently on a small (1to 5-ml) immobilized metal-ion chromatography (IMAC) column using a syringe to load the sample, wash the column, and elute the protein.
Purification of Histidine-Tagged Proteins under Denaturing Conditions Using IMAC Protocol Immobilized metal-ion affinity chromatography (IMAC) is suitable for the purification of proteins under denaturing conditions. Either guanidine-HCl or urea can be used, although guanidine-HCl is a stronger denaturant than urea. Proteins that have been adsorbed to the column in the presence of guanidine-binding buffer may be washed with urea-binding buffer and eluted with urea elution buffer.
Purification of Histidine-Tagged Proteins Using IMAC Without Parameter Optimization Protocol Histidine-tagged proteins can be purified on prepacked 1-ml immobilized metal-ion affinity chromatography (IMAC) columns without optimization of the separation conditions. The method allows fast capture of the target protein, although with a lower purity than can be obtained under optimized conditions.
