Refolding Protocol | The cells were sonicated, then centrifuged (15min x 12000g). The pellet was then resuspended in wash buffer and sonicated again, centrifuged and resupsended in wash buffer twice more. The inclusion bodies were then dissolved in solubilization buffer and centrifuged (15min x 12000g). The supernatant was incubated at room temperature for 2h to allow complete solubilization to occur. The protein was then folded by a gradual 10-fold dilution of the protein into the refolding buffer, the refolding buffer was added slowly (50 microlitres/min) with gentle mixing. The mixture was then left to stand at 4degC for 20h to allow the solubilized inclusion bodies to refold. The mixture was then dialyzed against refolding buffer to remove any remaining GdnHCl. The refolded protein was then loaded onto a prepared apoB-100-coupled affinity matrix column equilibrated with 50mM TrisHCl pH 8.0. After washing seeral times with the Tris buffer, the bound protein was eluted with 0.1M glycine (pH 3.0) and the eluted protein was immediately neutralized with 1M TrisHCl (pH 8.0). The eluate was then dialyzed against PBS and inf necessary concentrated with ammonium sulfate to a final 65% saturation. |
