Chromatography media and use thereof
View Patent ↗The present invention relates to a novel non-cross linked chromatography media provided with glutathione ligands which may or may not be provided with magnetic particles. The chromatography media is used for production of an affinity media provided with gluthatione ligands for adsorption of GST-tagged proteins.
1. A method for isolating proteins from a sample comprising:
a. combining a sample comprising glutathione-S-transferase (GST) tagged proteins with an affinity chromatography media comprising non-crosslinked agarose coated magnetic beads having glutathione immobilized thereon; and
b. magnetically separating the GST tagged proteins bound to the affinity media from the sample, thereby isolating the proteins from the sample.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the GST tagged proteins are combined directly after cell culture to the chromatography media.
3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the GST tagged proteins are concentrated after cell culture before combining with the chromatography media.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the affinity chromatography media provides improved isolation of GST tagged proteins over an affinity chromatography media produced from crosslinked agarose coated magnetic beads having glutathione immobilized thereon.
