General description

GSTrap™ FF columns are prepacked Glutathione Sepharose™ Fast FLow columns for fast, convenient, one-step purification of glutathione S-transferase (GST) tagged proteins.
The pressure over the packed bed varies depending on a range of parameters such as the characteristics of the chromatography medium and the column tubing used.

Application

GST*-tagged Proteins can be purified directly from pretreated bacterial lysates using GSTrap™ FF.GST-tagged Proteins are eluted under mild, nondenaturing conditions using reduced glutathione. The purification process preserves Protein antigenicity and function. If desired, cleavage of the Protein from GST can be achieved using a site-specific protease whose recognition sequence is located immediately upstream from the multiple cloning site on the pGEX plasmids. GST-tagged Proteins can be detected using colorimetric or immunological methods. The medium, Glutathione Sepharose™ 4 Fast Flow, is also available as lab packages and is an excellent choice for scale-up.The columns can be operated with a syringe, peristaltic pump, or liquid chromatography system such as ÄKTA® design or FPLC™ System.

Features and Benefits

  • Fast and simple one-step purification of GST-tagged Proteins.
  • Mild elution conditions preserving Protein antigenicity and function.
  • Easy scale-up by connecting the columns in series.
  • Sepharose™ 4 Fast FLow provides good fLow properties.

Protocols

Removal of Thrombin and Factor Xa Using HiTrap® Benzamidine FF (High Sub)

To protect the fusion protein from proteolytic degradation prior to enzymatic cleavage with PreScission Protease, thrombin, or Factor Xa, it may be necessary to remove proteases from the sample. Additionally, following enzymatic cleavage, it may be necessary to remove thrombin or Factor Xa from the sample.
