| 1L LB broth containing 50microg/ml ampicillin was inoculated with 200ml overnight culture, and induced and allowed to incubate at 225rpm. Cells were harvested by centrifugation(5000g, 10min) and resuspended in 20 ml of buffer z(8M urea, 100mM NaCL, 20mM Hepes, pH 8.0). Cells were then lyzed (4x12s on, 15 off at 4degC) and clarified by centrifugation(16,000g, 10sec, 4degC). |

| Use a 1-5ml ionic exchange column with 20 micron Resource Q or S resin. Dilute sample 1:1 with 20mM Hepes, pH 8.0 MonoQ, or pH 6.5 for Mono S. Inject into a preequilibrated column via syringe. Wash the column with 50ml buffer A (50mM NaCl, 20mM Hepes, pH 8.0) plus imidazole and elute fusion protein by addition of 1-2M NaCL. The Sample is then desalted and allowed to refold on a PD-10 column by reducing 4-0M Urea. |
