| Refolding Protocol | Harvested cells were lysed by microfluidization and inclusion bodies were collected. the Inclusion bodies were then washed and exracted with chloroform:methanol (2:1) to remove lipids. Inclusion bodies were then solubilized in solubilization buffer and passed over a TSK3000 gel filtration column (Toso-Haas) run in 8M urea, 20mM Tris pH 7.4, 5mM EDTA, 5mM DTT at room temperature. The selected peak was then passed over a MonoQ column at room temperature and eluted with 400-500mM NaCl. Selected fractions were refolded by dilution into refolding buffer while stirring slowly at 4degC. Refolded protein was then diluted slowly 2-fold into 25mM Tris pH 8, 5mM DTT and then again 2-fold into 2M (NH4)2SO4, 20mM Tris pH 8.0, 5mM DTT, 5mM EDTA. Refolded protein was then purified further using a Toyo-phenyl 650S column, a Mono Q column and a phenyl-5PW column. |
