Expression of [His]6 constructs
Sample preparation
Frozen samples were thawed on ice and diluted to prepare a simple Coomassie-stain gel check. Is the overexpression visible? If so it might be too much for a physiologically relevant pulldown.
Sample setup
Heat samples for 2min at 85 deg C NOT at 95 deg C as we would usually do. This has to do with the composition of Invitrogen's reagents.
Reagent | 1ul load | 2ul load | 3ul load | 5ul load |
---|---|---|---|---|
Sample | 1ul | 2ul | 3ul | 5ul |
SDS laoding buffer 2X | 5ul | 5ul | 5ul | 5ul |
ddH2O | 4ul | 3ul | 2ul | 0ul |
NuPAGE reducing agent | 1ul | 1ul | 1ul | 1ul |
Loading of samples was a big problem, they were gooey and didn't want to go into the wells. Look up sample prep protocols for bacteria.
Preparation of whole cell. and soluble protein extract
- thaw 96 bacterial pellets room temperature
- resuspend in 100 µl Lysis buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.0, 0.3 M NaCl, 1 mM EDTA or 0.1 mM EDTA, if NiNTA purification follows)
- add 25 µl of

- resuspend lysates, add 15 µl to the plate, mix by pipetting
- 5 min 50°C, 2 min 100°C
- load 7 µl on SDS-PAGE
SDS-PAGE
We're using the Invitrogen Nu-PAGE system with Novex bis-tris 4-12% gels' and MES running buffer to get the high resolution in the low kDa-range (as advertised).
