Application

Recombinant Protein Expression Purifying a protein of interest is often essential for determining its function, structure, or interactions, for raising specific antibodies, or preparing enzymes for practical applications. Isolation of naturally expressed proteins from their original source can be a complex process involving numerous chromatographic steps. Recombinant protein expression in dedicated host organisms can greatly simplify this task. Such expression systems generally ensure higher expression levels. Fusing the target protein to a tag also confers advantageous binding ability to an affinity matrix.Protein Purification using Immobilized Ni²⁺The most common technique in affinity purification of proteins involves engineering a sequence of 6 to 14 histidines into the N- or C-terminal (or even on an exposed loop) of the protein. Such polyhistidine stretches bind strongly to divalent metal ions such as nickel and cobalt. This effect can be used to separate proteins. Metal ions can be immobilized on a matrix using a chelator, which still allows the ion to interfere with the polyhistidine tag of the protein. When these his-tagged proteins are passed through a column containing immobilized metal ions, the proteins bind via the tag to the column. Nearly all untagged proteins pass through the column. The protein is released from the column by elution with either imidazole, which competes with the polyhistidine tag for binding to the column, or by a decrease in pH, which decreases the affinity of the tag for the resin. While this procedure is generally used for the purification of recombinant proteins with an engineered affinity tag, it can also be used for natural proteins with an inherent affinity for divalent cations.His-Tags Ideally, the His-tagged target protein binds much stronger to the Ni²⁺ chelate matrix than endogenous histidine-containing protein of the expression host. Relative binding strength depends on how many histidines can bind simultaneously to the matrix (avidity effect). Longer His-tags confer stronger binding and better separation of the target from potentially contaminating host proteins. The classic His-tag has six consecutive histidines. Tags with 10 to 14 histidines may produce a better purification. Most importantly, His-tagged proteins can be purified using Ni²⁺ chelate matrices under both native and denaturing conditions. Due to their hydrophilic and flexible nature, these matrices increase the solubility of the target proteins and only rarely interfere with protein function. This unique combination of features enables the His-tag to be a versatile tool for a wide range of protein purification applications.

Features and Benefits

cOmplete His-Tag Purification Resin is the only resin for purifying large amounts of protein without compromises. Use the buffer conditions best suited to your protein: Keep your protein comfortable and let it, not your purification resin, determine whether you use DTT, EDTA, or other buffer substances. Repeatedly obtain highly pure protein: Single step purification without resin recharging. Protect your protein from toxic nickel: Reduce protein oxidation and aggregation caused by resins that leach nickel.
