Introduction
Recombinant Protein A/G/L is a genetically engineered protein that combines the IgG binding characteristics of Protein A, Protein G, and Protein L. This fusion protein consists of five Ig-binding regions from Protein L (B1-B2-B3-B4-B5), five IgG binding domains from Protein A (E-D-A-B-C), and two Ig-binding regions from Protein G (C1-C3). Its ability to bind to IgG from various species, including humans, mice, rats, cows, goats, sheep, rabbits, guinea pigs, pigs, dogs, and cats, makes it ideal for purifying monoclonal or polyclonal IgG antibodies.
Description
Produced in E. coli, Recombinant Protein-A/G/L is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain with a cysteine residue added at the N-terminus. This 89.3kDa protein comprises 806 amino acids, encompassing five IgG-binding regions from Protein A (E-D-A-B-C), two from Protein G (C1-C3), and five from Protein L (B1-B2-B3-B4-B5). The cell wall binding region, cell membrane binding region, and albumin binding region have been removed to ensure maximum specificity for IgG binding.
Physical Appearance
Sterile Filtered White Lyophilized Powder
Formulation
Protein-A/G/L is lyophilized without the addition of any excipients or stabilizers.
Solubility
To reconstitute lyophilized Protein-A/G/L, it is recommended to dissolve it in sterile, 18M-cm H2O at a minimum concentration of 0.1mg/ml. This solution can be further diluted with other aqueous solutions as needed.
Stability
Lyophilized Protein-A/G/L remains stable at room temperature for up to three weeks; however, it is recommended to store it desiccated at a temperature below -18°C. After reconstitution, Protein-A/G/L should be stored at 4°C for no longer than 2-7 days. For long-term storage, it is recommended to freeze it below -18°C after adding a carrier protein such as 0.1% HSA or BSA. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Purity
The purity of Protein-A/G/L is greater than 95.0% as determined by Size Exclusion Chromatography-High Performance Liquid Chromatography (SEC-HPLC) and Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate-Polyacrylamide Gel Electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) analysis.
