FAQs
Q:如何阻止蛋白酶降解底物?
A:本产品的生物素连接酶经严格质量控制,没有蛋白酶活性。如果用于生物素化的底物蛋白是未经纯化的粗提蛋白,建议加入适量的蛋白酶抑制剂, 以防止在生物素化的过程中发生降解。
Q:如何确定参与反应的最适本酶量及反应条件?
A: 由于不同蛋白性质差别很大、生物酶反应存在一定的不确定性,说明书中所述反应条件并不完全适用于所有蛋白。建议用户可以进行预实验:可先取少量蛋白,分成若干份相同量的底物,加入不同稀释度的酶,相应量的 Buffer A、B ,30℃ 1 h (或其它时间、温度条件)反应,以 SDS-PAGE Loading Buffer 终止反应后,电泳并转移至 NC 膜上进行 Western Blotting 检测(BSA 或脱脂奶粉封闭后直接以市售的 HRP-Streptavidin 孵育,DAB 显色),比较生物素化情况,选取最适条件。 由于 Streptavidin 与 Biotin 结合力极强,因而用于 Western Blotting 检测时,只需很少生物素化蛋白即可观察结果。
Q:如果我的底物蛋白浓度相当低且不容易浓缩,进行生物素化时该怎么办?
A:在进行相同底物量的酶促反应时加入更多的酶并适当延长反应时间。但有一个问题不容忽视,酶是蛋白质,在酶量增加的时候,引入体系中的蛋白量亦增加了,如果后续的实验不容许出现很大量杂蛋白,那么延长反应时间将是唯一的选择。
Q:去污剂对于生物素化反应有无影响?
A:经过实验检测,0.2%的 Tween 20 对反应没有任何影响。

1. Shipped on dry ice. After thawing, aliquot the product and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
2. For long-term storage of Biotin-Protein Ligase, store at -80°C; for short-term use, store at -20°C; for frequent use, it can be stored at 4°C for a short period. When stored at 4°C, the enzyme can retain > 90% of its activity for three months.
3. Store Ligase Buffer A and Ligase Buffer B at -20°C; repeated freeze-thaw cycles are acceptable.
Example of Reaction System
|
Total volume is 25 μl. Incubate at 25°C for 12 - 16 hours to fully biotinylate the substrate.
1. The substrate of this product is AviTag fusion protein.
2. If the substrate protein (polypeptide) needs to be stored at a lower temperature, the reaction temperature can be appropriately reduced and the enzymatic reaction time should be prolonged.
3. Many common buffer components such as sodium chloride (>100 mM), glycerol (>5% W/V), and ammonium sulfate (>50 mM) can inhibit the activity of biotin ligase. When these reagents are necessary for the substrate protein (polypeptide), their concentrations should be reduced as much as possible.
4. The substrate can contain Tris (pH 8.0), with an optimal concentration of 10 mM and no more than 50 mM.
Q: How to prevent proteases from degrading the substrate?
A: The biotin ligase of this product undergoes strict quality control and has no protease activity. If the substrate protein used for biotinylation is unpurified crude protein, it is recommended to add an appropriate amount of protease inhibitors to prevent degradation during the biotinylation process.
Q: How to determine the optimal amount of this enzyme and reaction conditions for the reaction?
A: Due to the great differences in the properties of different proteins and the certain uncertainty in biological enzyme reactions, the reaction conditions described in the manual are not completely applicable to all proteins. It is recommended that users conduct a pre-experiment: first take a small amount of protein, divide it into several equal amounts of substrates, add enzymes with different dilutions, corresponding amounts of Buffer A and B, react at 30°C for 1 h (or other time and temperature conditions), terminate the reaction with SDS-PAGE Loading Buffer, perform electrophoresis and transfer to an NC membrane for Western Blotting detection (after blocking with BSA or skim milk powder, directly incubate with commercially available HRP-Streptavidin, and develop color with DAB), compare the biotinylation situation, and select the optimal conditions. Since the binding force between Streptavidin and Biotin is extremely strong, only a small amount of biotinylated protein is needed for observation results when used for Western Blotting detection.
Q: What should I do if the concentration of my substrate protein is quite low and it is not easy to concentrate during biotinylation?
A: Add more enzyme and appropriately prolong the reaction time when conducting the enzymatic reaction with the same amount of substrate. However, there is a problem that cannot be ignored: the enzyme is a protein, and when the amount of enzyme increases, the amount of protein introduced into the system also increases. If subsequent experiments do not allow the presence of a large amount of heterologous proteins, then prolonging the reaction time will be the only choice.
Q: Does detergent have any effect on the biotinylation reaction?
A: Through experimental detection, 0.2% Tween 20 has no effect on the reaction.
