Dear Fred -- just to check... are you sure you have the His-tag? Might have been cleaved somehow? You might want to increase the number of His in the tag as well. HTH. -- Leo -- On 27 Jan 2009, at 21:00, Fred wrote: Hi ccp4 list, I am trying to purify a his-tag protein by metal

Hi ccp4 list, I am trying to purify a his-tag protein by metal affinity chromatography. The protein was expressed in inclusion bodies and its his-tag doesn't bind the Qiagen Ni resin in denatured conditions (urea 8M or GndHCl 6M). Playing with NaCl and detergents didn't help much. Any help is

Hi Fred, I used to worked with a protein which would not bind to the Qiagen NiNTA (really *NOT*) but beautifully to IDA resin (e.g. Amersham Pharmacia). This was under non-denaturing conditions, though, and I don't know whether this applies to the denatured state. It may be worth a try.

You can also try TALON cobalt affinity resin from Clontech ( http://www.clontech.com/products/detail.asp?product_id=10588tabno=2) or the high yield PrepEase resin from USB ( http://www.usbweb.com/category.asp?special=cat=234id=78806). On Tue, Jan 27, 2009 at 4:34 PM, Tim Gruene

You don't have EDTA left over from your protease inhibitor, do you? Some commercial cocktails include it. You may have to read the fine print. James On Jan 27, 2009, at 1:00 PM, Fred wrote: Hi ccp4 list, I am trying to purify a his-tag protein by metal affinity chromatography. The

To go along with the EDTA comment, did you check the pH of your binding solution? Sometimes lysing E. coli causes the pH to drop below the pKa of the histidines. On Tue, Jan 27, 2009 at 8:10 PM, James Stroud xtald...@gmail.com wrote: You don't have EDTA left over from your protease inhibitor,
