These concentrations are intended as a guide. LIGAND COUPLING STABILITY AND TARGET ELUTION EFFICIENCY Elution Conditions Reducing buffer + Boiling Non-reducing buffer+ Boiling Low pH: Glycine pH 2.0 High salt: 3.6 M MgCl Magnetic Beads Bound Ligand Leakage 1-3% Target Elution Efficiency (i.e. GST) 100% Sepharose Beads Bound Ligand Leakage 0-2% Target Elution Efficiency (i.e. GST) 100% 1-3% ≈50% - 75% 0-2% ≈50% - 75% 1-2% ≈15% - 35% 1-2% ≈15% - 35% BDL ≈5% - 20% BDL ≈5% - 20% Bound ligand leakage = the estimated percentage of GBP protein that will be present in the elute using the indicated elution conditions. Target Elution Efficiency = the estimated percentage of bound GFP target protein that was eluted using the indicated elution conditions. GFP eluted using Reducing buffer + boiling was considered 100%, all others were quantified relative to this condition.

The theoretical binding capacity is 1mg/ml of bead slurry. However, in practice we have generally found the binding capacity to be approximately 0.5-0.8mg/ml of bead slurry. Protocol 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Thoroughly mix beads and storage buffer Remove desired amount of bead slurry Place on magnet for 2 minutes Remove storage buffer Wash with 300-500uL of 1X PBS three times; mixing/vortexing, spinning down, and placing on magnet each time to remove the PBS 6. Add in target containing lysate/buffer/etc. 7. Rotate end-over-end for 2 hours at room temperature or overnight at 4°C 8. Spin down sample and place on magnet 9. Remove unbound protein in solution for use as flow-through sample 10. Wash beads three times with PBS, removing wash buffer each time (Step 5) 11. If necessary retain washes to examine on a SDS-PAGE gel or Western Blot. 12. Elution conditions will vary across experiments. Four different elution conditions have been tested in VAPR and their data is shown above on page 1. 13. If using Protein Gel Loading Buffer as the elution strategy add desired volume of Sample Loading Buffer and proceed with boiling and/or gel loading. 14. If eluting via Glycine or High Salt, a. Add 3 volumes of elution buffer and incubate for 3 to 5 minutes. b. Spin down and place on magnet. c. Remove eluted sample. Please note that Glycine eluted samples need to have their pH neutralized and High Salt eluted samples will need to be buffer exchanged before running on SDS-PAGE. STORAGE AND UTILIZATION Antibodies bound to solid matrices are provided in PBS with 0.05% Sodium azide. Stored at 4˚C, the solution will be stable for 6 months or longer.
