Regulation of Protein Expression in pET System

• Double induction by IPTG– T7 RNA polymerase (98 kDa)– target gene (only in T7lac vectors)

• Compatible with a wide range of expression hosts– requires DE3 lysogen

Procedure to purify proteins fused with an affinity tag

1. Fusion of GST gene to target protein gene (C- or N-terminal)2. Expression in recombinant strain3. Cell disruption to prepare cell extract4. Binding of the target proteins to resins via the affinity interac-tion between affinity tag(GST) and ligand (glutathione)

Electrophoresis

Cross-linked polymerpolyacrylamide

acts as a molecular sieve, slowing the migrationof proteins approximately in proportion to theircharge-to-mass ratio.

chromatography

What happens in chromatography?

• Molecules to be separated diffuse into the beads

• They bind under one set of condi-tions and are re-leased under (usu-ally) other condi-tions

• Different molecules interact differently

What is ion exchange chromatography?

Ion exchange chromatography is a form of LC that separates molecules on the basis of their charge

Useful at all stages of purification and at all scales

Controllable

High selectivity, high capacity

Concentrating, high recovery

• Interaction between opposite charges• Charged groups on the proteins interact with charged

groups on the ion exchanger. • Different proteins have different charges and interact

differently.• Anion or cation exchange• When the protein is negatively charged, it is an anion -

anion exchange• When it is positively charged, it is a cation - cation ex-

change

Separation by charge

• Some of the charged re-

gions which will influence

ion exchange

• Different proteins have

different charges and dif-

ferent patterns of sur-

face charge
