Small-scale purification of FLAG-tagged proteins from SF9 cells

Prepare the following beforehand:

• LYSIS BUFFER
  • NOTE: if you are freezing down cells before the purification, leave out the Igepal and Sucrose. This will require you to make 2x Lysis Buffer without these two ingredients.

Final concentrations:

200 mM NaCl

4 mM MgCl2

20 mM Imidazole, pH 7.5

0.5 mM EDTA

1 mM EGTA

0.5% (v/v) Igepal

7% (w/v) Sucrose

1 mM PMSF (0.25 M stock)

10 μg/mL Aprotinin

10 μg/mL Leupeptin

5 mM DTT

2 mM ATP

	5 mL total
2x lysis buffer	2.5 mL
1 mg/mL aprotinin stock	50 uL
1 mg/mL leupeptin stock	50 uL
1 M DTT	25 uL
100 mM ATP	100 uL
0.25 M PMSF	20 uL
diwater	2.255 mL

• 2x LYSIS BUFFER
