Amylose Resin

Product Introduction

Amylose resin is an affinity matrix used for the isolation of proteins fused to maltose-binding protein (MBP). It is intended for use in a gravity flow column.

  • Highly specific binding of protein of interest fused to MBP allows for one-step purification
  • MBP is easily removed from the protein of interest by Factor Xa Protease
  • Binding capacity of >4mg MBP5*-paramyosin ΔSal fusion protein/ml amylose resin
  • Can be used multiple times and can be regenerated

Product Notes

  1. Store at 4°C. After use, resin should be stored incolumn buffer plus 0.02% sodium azide or 20% ethanol.
  2. Amylose Resin column should be washed with 5 volumes ofcolumn buffer before each use.
  3. For optimum performance, load crude extract at < 60cm/hour.
  4. When regenerating the column at 4°C, please note that0.1% SDS can precipitate at that temperature. It is therefore recommended thatthe SDS solution be stored at room temperature until needed. The resin may begenerated up to five times.
  5. For a complete affinity purification protocol, download the pMAL Protein Fusion and Purification System technical bulletin (NEB #E8200) from www.neb.com.
  6. Regeneration: The packed resin may beregenerated by the following wash sequence: Water 3 - column volumes, 0.1% SDS -3 column volumes, Water - 1 column volume, Column Buffer - 5 columnvolumes.

FAQs & Troubleshooting

FAQs

  1. Much of my fusion protein flows through the amylose column. Is there anything I can do to improve my fusion’s affinity for the amylose column?
  2. How many times can I use the amylose column?
  3. What is known about binding in the presence of nonionic detergents?
  4. Can I substitute a different buffer and/or salt concentration in the Column Buffer?
  5. I see my intact fusion protein by SDS-PAGE when I run cells boiled in Sample Buffer, but when I check the crude extract the fusion is degraded.
  6. When I run my purified fusion protein on SDS-PAGE, why do I see multiple bands instead of a single band of the expected MW?
  7. Can I perform a batch purification using the amylose resin?
  8. Can MBP fusions be purified in the presence of denaturants like urea or guanidine-HCl?
  9. Is the amylose resin damaged by storage at -20°C?
  10. What gravity column do you recommend?
  11. Can amylose resin be cleaned, stored, and used again?
