Development of polyol-responsive antibody mimetics for single-step protein purification.

چکیده
The purification of functional proteins is a critical pre-requisite for many experimental assays. Immunoaffinity chromatography, one of the fastest and most efficient purification procedures available, is often limited by elution conditions that disrupt structure and destroy enzymatic activity. To address this limitation, we developed polyol-responsive antibody mimetics, termed nanoCLAMPs, based on a 16 kDa carbohydrate binding module domain from Clostridium perfringens hyaluronidase. nanoCLAMPs bind targets with nanomolar affinity and high selectivity yet release their targets when exposed to a neutral polyol-containing buffer, a composition others have shown to preserve quaternary structure and enzymatic activity. We screened a phage display library for nanoCLAMPs recognizing several target proteins, produced affinity resins with the resulting nanoCLAMPs, and successfully purified functional target proteins by single-step affinity chromatography and polyol elution. To our knowledge, nanoCLAMPs constitute the first antibody mimetics demonstrated to be polyol-responsive.

Active eukaryotic RNA polymerase II (RNAP II) was purified by immunoaffinity chromatography, using a monoclonal antibody (mAb) that reacts with the highly conserved heptapeptide repeat of the largest subunit. This mAb (designated 8WG16) was conjugated to CNBr-activated Sepharose and used to purify RNAP II from wheat germ and calf thymus. The subunit composition of the immunoaffinity-purified en...

Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) was purified to homogeneity from human seminal plasma by ion-exchange chromatography on a CM-Sephadex C-50 and by gel filtration on a Sephacryl S-200 column. A single 33-kDa protein band appeared in SDS-PAGE. High pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) of the purified protein produced a single peak, while isoelectric focusing demonstrated the presence of five diff...

Homeobox genes encode transcription factors which play important roles in the developmental processes of many multicellular organisms. TGIFLX/Y (TGIFLX and TGIFLY) are members of the homeobox superfamily of genes. Their expressions are specifically detected in the human adult testis but their functions are remained to be investigated. In this investigation we cloned full length of TGIFLY cDNA a...

Cystic echinococcosis (CE) is an infection caused by the larval stage of Echinococcus granulosus. This is widely distributed through Iran, where a variety of animals act as intermediate host. The immunogenic antigens (Ag) of different compartments of the hydatid cyst have been already determined. One of these compartments is the laminated layer (LL). We have extracted a protein with the MW of 2...
