For automated, medium-scale purification of 6xHis-tagged proteins
| Yield: | Medium-scale, up to 300 µg protein per well |
| Lysate clearing: | TurboFilter 96 plates |
| Purification module: | QIAfilter 96 plates loaded with Ni-NTA Superflow |
| Throughput: | 96 samples in parallel |
| Processing: | BioRobot systems |
| Starting material: | 5 ml cultures in 24-well blocks or tubes |
The
Ni-NTA Superflow 96 BioRobot Kit provides automated purification of up to 300
µg recombinant protein from 96 samples in parallel. The procedure uses a
TurboFilter 96 plate to clear bacterial cell lysates by vacuum filtration on a
BioRobot 3000, 8000, or 9600 workstation. The cleared lysates flow directly into
a QIAfilter 96 plate, which is preloaded with Ni-NTA Superflow by the BioRobot
workstation. This unique 96-well metal-chelate affinity-chromatography module
strongly and selectively binds 6xHistagged proteins. After several efficient
wash steps, the purified proteins are eluted in 450 µl elution buffer.
Ready-to-run protocols are provided for purification under native or denaturing
conditions. For purification of larger amounts of 6xHis-tagged protein, larger
cultures and several wells can be used (one well per 5 ml culture).
Automated Expression-Clone Screening
![]() |
Medium-scale purification for expression-clone screening and protein characterization. A mixture of vector constructs for the expression of proteins of 12, 15, and 28 kDa, and a 48/50 kDa heterodimer was transformed into E.coli, plated on selective medium, and 96 colonies were picked at random for inoculating 5 ml cultures. Expression of 6xHis-tagged proteins was induced with IPTG overnight. Cells were pelleted and lysed and 6xHis-tagged proteins purified. 5 µl of each elution fraction was loaded for SDS-PAGE analysis; proteins were visualized by Coomassie staining. |
