Notes | Single chain T-cell receptor, specific for hapten fluorescein in the context of major histocompatibility complex class II. Comprises one V-alpha and one V-beta domain joined via a flexible peptide linker. Variant designed to include mutations to replace 5 large hydrophobic residues with charged or polar residues |

Refolding Protocol | The cell pellet was resuspended in 50mM TrisHCl pH 8.5, 5mM EDTA, 0.3mg/ml lysozyme, 1mM PMSF and incubated on ice for 2h. Nonidet P-40 was added to 0.75% and NaCl was added to 0.35M. The suspension was sonicated and centrifuged (1000g, 20min). The pellet was resuspended in wash buffer containing high salt concentration (1.0M NaCl) and repelleted, then washed twice with low salt wash buffer (no NaCl). The pellet was then resuspended in 5ml solubilization buffer, centrifuged (15min, 1000g) and the supernatant was collected. The protein was then purified by HPLC, collected fracions were combined and resuspended in 8M urea, 10mM TrisHCl pH 8.0, 20mM DTT. The protein was then refolded by rapid dilution 1:100 into refolding buffer 1. After 3h, the solution was dialyzed against refolding buffer 2. 3-{(3-cholamidopropyl)dimethylammonio]-1-propanesulfonate was added to 0.1% and the protein was then concentrated. |
