Safety
General Lab Safety Guidelines
• Use laboratory coats, safety glasses and gloves as appropriate
• Avoid restrictive clothing and open-toed shoes
• No eating or drinking in the lab
• Make sure that students are familiar with the operating instructions and safety
precautions before they use any of the lab equipment
• Check all MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheets) for all chemicals and reagents in the
lab before preparing and running the lab
• Wash hands at the conclusion of the lab.
Lab Safety Guidelines for lab 6
• When using potentially bio-hazardous materials work in a sanitary manner and
treat all waste as a potential biohazard
• Dispose of pipette tips and all other materials that came in contact with bacteria
in the biohazard bag provided
• Any item potentially contaminated by bacteria should be treated with 70% ethanol
or another acceptable disinfectant

Warm Up
• Why is your transformed bacteria red?
– What did you do?
– What did the bacteria do?

Transformation
www.amgenbiotechexperience.com
Transcription & Translation
• Where is rfp?
• Is rfp the only
protein made by
the cell?
www.amgenbiotechexperience.com
Why purify a protein?
• The protein is in living cells and mixed in with
other proteins, over 1, 000 proteins could be
in one cell
• Pharmaceutical companies want one purified
protein to sell as a medicine.
• Don’t want other proteins interfering with the
medicine or body chemistry
www.amgenbiotechexperience.com
Protein Purification
Procedure
1. Centrifuge
Purpose
• increase concentration
2. Lyse cells- overnight
incubation
• Release cell proteins
(including rfp)
3. Centrifuge
• Separate large cell pieces
from released proteins
4. Column Purification
• Separate rfp from other cell
proteins
Where’s your protein?
• How will you know where your protein is?
• Each step of the procedure
– Record where rfp should be (prelab)
– As you complete- check location of rfp!
www.amgenbiotechexperience.com
Protein Purification
Procedure
1. Centrifuge
Where is rfp?
• Cytoplasm inside the cell
2. Lyse cells- overnight
incubation
• Liquid portion (cells cut
open)
3. Centrifuge
• Supernatant (liquid)
4. Column Purification
• Attach to resin in column
and then release
Step 1: Centrifuge
Step 2: Lyse cells

Protocol
• Be sure to note where the
rfp should be for each step
• Flow chart of each step

their notes to do the lab
Notes/Changes
Part A (Day 1) Overview
• Step 1: Centrifuge
– 1 mL of rfp to microfuge tube
– Centrifuge at high speed for 5 min
– Remove supernatant without disturbing pellet
– Repeat in the SAME microfuge tube!

Part A (Day 1) Overview
• Step 2: Lyse cells
– Add 150 µL EB (buffer) to cell pellet
– Re-suspend cells
• No clumps- use spiral notebook

Day 2 Background
Understanding Columns
Warm Up
• Many medicines today are proteins.
Biotechnology companies make these
medicines the same way you transformed the
bacteria to make rfp.
– However, the protein is in the bacteria, so how do
we get our protein out without destroying it’s
properties?
– What effects a proteins ability to do it’s job?
www.amgenbiotechexperience.com
Understanding purification Methods:
• Hydrophobicity is often used to help separate
molecules.
– Hydrophobic: ‘fears water’ : oil, wax, fats
– Hydrophilic: ‘loves water’ : salt, sugar
• Proteins have both hydrophobic and
hydrophilic parts
– Hydrophilic regions point outward
– Hydrophobic regions point inward
– (reversed for membrane proteins)
www.amgenbiotechexperience.com
With over 1,000 different proteins how can
we isolate rfp?
• We used an expression vector
• The cells are making much more rfp than any
other protein
• Column chromatography:
• We need to understand the amino acid make up
of the rfp
• Hydrophobic and hydrophilic regions
www.amgenbiotechexperience.com
RFP Structure
• What will happen if you place a
folded protein in a high salt
solution?

Column Structure

Column
Stop Cock
Matrix
Solvents
www.amgenbiotechexperience.com
Column Structure
• Column
– Glass (or plastic) tube that holds
matrix
• Stop Cock
– Regulates flow of solvents
• In line: allows solvents to flow
• Perpendicular: blocks solventsstops flow
– Use cap if no stop cock
www.amgenbiotechexperience.com
Column Structure
• Matrix
– Other names
• Resin
• Stationary phase
– Coated beads that can bind and
release your molecule under
different conditions
– Note:
• Must be kept in liquid at all times
– Keep 2 mm (~ ½ pinky nail) of liquid
above the resin at all times
• Never disturb resin
– Add solvents slowly and down side of
the column- no clouds
www.amgenbiotechexperience.com
Column Structure
Solvents
Buffers
• Equilibration • Prepares matrix for binding to molecule of interest
• Binding
• Wash
• Elution
• Storage
• Usually mixed with supernatant before adding to
matrix- prepares rfp for attaching to resin
• Removes other molecules from matrix- allows rfp
to stay bound
• Rfp detaches and flows out of matrix
• Keeps resin stable when not in use
Binding Buffer
• High Salt Buffer
– Mix with rfp supernatant
– Rfp exposes inner hydrophobic amino
acids
– Rfp and hydrophobic proteins will bind
to resin
– Hydrophillic proteins will flow through
• Notes:
– Flow through = clear = waste
– Ideally add solvent slowly- rfp will bind
in tight ring- increasing final
concentration
www.amgenbiotechexperience.com
Wash Buffer
• Medium Salt Buffer
– Allows some refolding of proteinsbut not rfp
– Moderately hydrophobic proteins
release and flow through
– RFP will stay bound to resin
• Notes:
• Flow through = clear = waste
• Gravity flow can be slow
www.amgenbiotechexperience.com
Elution Buffer
• Rfp will refold- covering
hydrophobic amino acids
• Rfp releases and flows through
• Note:
– Add slowly and all rfp will release
and flow through together
– Only catch pink/red solution with
clean tube
– Clear solution = buffer only =
waste
www.amgenbiotechexperience.com
Column Prep
• Setup columns
–
–
–
–
Arm/finger clamp
Ring stand
Waste container
Column tip should be just above waste
container
• Drain Storage buffer
• Add and drain 2 mL of equilibration buffer
• Note: ALWAYS leave ~2 mm of solution
above resin
– This is when you add next buffer
– Never drain resin dry

Step 3: Centrifuge

• Only collect red liquid- let clear flow into waste
• Add buffers slowly down sides- no clouds
www.amgenbiotechexperience.com
Optional Extension
• Do rfp and bromocresal green come out of the
column at the same time?
– Why or why not?
– Which one is more hydrophobic? How do you
know?
www.amgenbiotechexperience.com
Step 5: Column Storage
• Storage
– Run 2 mL of Storage Buffer (20% ETOH)
– Add 1 mL of storage buffer to top of resin
– Replace top & bottom caps
• Top cap should snap on tightly
• Another class
– Run 2 mL of column equilibration buffer (CEB)
– Replace top & bottom caps
• Top cap should snap on tightly
www.amgenbiotechexperience.com
Part A (Day 1) Teacher Prep Notes
• Can pre aliquot 1000 ul rfp into student tubes
(1/group)
– Have students pre-label tubes
– Some down time- can have previous class aliquot
next class solution
– 1st to class gets to aliquot
• Pre-label collection rack (1/period)
• If have sensitive centrifuge recommend having
students use a balance for 2nd spin
www.amgenbiotechexperience.com
Part B (Day 2) Teacher Prep Notes
• Columns run slow
– Can prep columns ahead of time
• Students Centrifuge & setup column at same
time
• Slow columns
– Make sure
• stop cock open
• Caps (top & bottom) are removed
– Unclog by resettling resin
– Apply pressure
www.amgenbiotechexperience.com
Applying Pressure
• Can make plunger to increase column flow rate
– #2 stopper- 1 hole
– 10 mL syringe
– Attach together by cutting 1 mL disposable pipet
• Using plunger
– Never pull up on plunger while attached to column
– Needs tight seal- columns can be warped into oval shape
• Check if clamp is too tight
• Gently squeeze column into round shape
– Make sure you still have drops, not a steady stream coming
from column when using
