Bio-Ox competes with Protein A for binding to IgG, effectively eluting the recombinant protein. The use of Bio-Ox, a biotinylated form of the FcIII peptide, utilizes its high affinity towards IgG (K d = 11 nM) ( Strambio-de-Castillia et al., 2005). Recent advances in recovery technique have improved the ability to isolate Protein A and its associated protein complexes in its active form from IgG Sepharose. In addition, the binding of fusion proteins to IgG complicates immunological analysis, and thus Protein A fusions are unsuitable for use as immunological reagents. Protease recovery can cleave the tagged protein itself, resulting in the same outcomes. Protein A fusions can be purified by affinity chromatography on IgG Sepharose (K d = 10 nM) and eluted with a low pH buffer ( UNIT 9.5) or protease however, the large size of the tag and/or the low pH elution can result in denaturation and loss of activity of the fusion protein, consequently altering its functional activity. One of these tags, staphylococcal protein A, is 280 amino acids in length and, because of its relatively large size and proteolytic stability, can increase the solubility and/or expression of heterologous proteins ( Sambrook et al., 1989). The first affinity tags used were large proteins utilized almost exclusively for protein expression and purification in E. ![]()
