Aim: Check if our protein gel works.
Protocol: follow in this link
Results
C2 1.1 (+)iPTG seems to have a new band around 30kDa. However, C2 1.1 (+)iPTG and C2 1.2 (+)iPTG show a band at 70kDa. As we have two inserts our plasmid it seems to be a double protein but itwill not be efficient. So we decided to restart the induction
Aim: Do another culture of BL21DE3 to compare it to our previous one.

Protocol: follow in this link
Method
Follow the deposit table :
| L1 | L2 | L3 | L4 | L5 | L6 | L7 | L8 | L9 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ladder | Ø | 1.1(-) | Ø | 1.1(+) | Ø | 1.2(-) | Ø | 1.2(+) |
Aim: Check if the Histag works and if our protein has really been produce.
Protocol: follow in this link
Materials
• Lysis buffer B PER
• Residue of the culture C2 1.1 and C2 1.2 (stored in 50 ml falcon at -20°C)
• Protease inhibition PMSF at 100 mM
• Tris at 1 M
• NaCl at 5 M
• Imidazole at 1.5 M
Method
1. Lysis of bacteria :
1.a For C2 1.1 (21ml), add 1 ml of lysis buffer
1.b For C2 1.2 (19ml), add 1 ml of lysis buffer
2. Let lysate during at least 5 minutes on ice
3. Add 1.5 μl of PMSF to reach a concentration of 15 μM in each sample
4. Preparation of buffer A : in a 500 ml bottle, put 25 ml of Tris and 15 ml of NaCl
5. Measure the pH and correct it by adding NaOH or HCl to reach 7.4. In our case, the solution was too acid so we add droplets of NaOH
6. Fill the bottle with osmosed Millipore water to reach a final concentration of 50 mM for Tris and 150 mM for NaCl
7. Preparation of buffer B (elution) : in a 500 ml bottle, put 25 ml of Tris, 15ml of NaCl and 125 ml of imidazole
8. Correct the pH to reach 7.4 and fill with water to reach a final concentration of 50 mM for Tris, 150 mM for NaCl and 250 mM of imidazole
9. In a clean 50 ml falcon, put the samples (one for C2 1.1 and one for C2 1.2) and add 10 ml of buffer A
10. As our samples were too sticky we sonicate them during a few seconds
11. Centrifuge the samples 20 minutes at 16000 RPM (30966 g)
12. Filtrate the buffers to eliminate impurities
13. The supernatant centrifuged is put in a clean 50 ml falcon
14. Purification of protein with AKTA FPLC from GE Healthcare
15. All the tubes are store at 4°C
Results
Aim: Do an SDS-PAGE gel to purify our proteins.
Protocol: follow in this link
Materials
• Lysis buffer B PER
• Residue of the culture C2 1.1 and C2 1.2 (stored in 50 ml falcon at -20°C)
• Protease inhibition PMSF at 100 mM
• Tris at 1 M
• NaCl at 5 M
• Imidazole at 1.5 M
Method
Each sample has to be diluted with Laemmli 2X.
1. Take 20 μl of the sample and 20 μl of Laemmli 2X and put teh bater 5 minutes at 95°C to denaturate the protein
2. Follow the deposit table :
| L1 | L2 | L3 | L4 | L5 | L6 | L7 | L8 | L9 | L10 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 20 μl protein ladder | Ø | sample 19 | sample 21 | sample 23 | sample 25 | sample 27 | sample 29 | sample 31 | sample 33 |
Aim: Check if our fusion protein is efficient for silification.
Protocol: follow in this link
Materials
• Biochemical equipment : pipettes, cones, Eppendorf tubes, …
• TEOS
• HCl 1 M
• Ulltrospec 3000 pro
• Fractions of fusion protein after FPLC purification
• Distilled water
• Buffer B
• 50 ml Falcons
Method
1.For fractions 27 to 31 :
1.a In a 50 ml Falcon, put 10 μl of our sample of protein in 10 ml of TEOS.
1.b In another 50 mL Falcon, put 10 μl of our sample of protein and 10 ml of water
2.For the other fractions :
2.a Prepare a solution of (Si(CH)4+HCl) with 55.8 μl of TEOS and 1 ml of HCl at 1 mM
2.b In a 50 ml Falcon, put 50 μl of our purified protein with the solution of (Si(CH)4+HCl) and let it stand for 4minutes at room temperature
2.c Add 9 ml of buffer B
Results
In spite of some impurities in the Fractions by the current purification method, and the difficulties to overcome cellulose in almost all commercial purification columns, we decided to make more protein before testing because we did not have enough.
Hypothesis: for the concentration of our protein, 1 mg⁄ml correspond to 100 mM
The protein concentration was measured by its absorbance at 280 nm: A = 0.10400
We assumed to have an extinction coefficient of 1 OD 280 nm= 1 mg⁄ml protein
Thus our [protein] = 0.104 mg⁄ml
We need to produce more protein by the bacteria cells to reach the concentration of 1 mM which correspond to 70 mg⁄ml.
Aim: Make a preculture of BL21DE3 to increase the amount of bacteria available for innoculation later.
Protocol: follow in this link
Materials
• Microbiology equipment (follow this link)
• Carbenicillin at 50 mg⁄ml
• LB
• C2 1.2 colony
• 50 ml Erlenmeyer
• Shaking incubator at 37 °C
Method
1. In two Erlenmeyers of 50 ml, put 25 ml of LB and 25 μl of Carbenicillin
2. Add in each Erlenmeyer one colony of C2 1.2 from the plate stored at 4°C
3. Put the two Erlenmeyers in the shaking incubator at 37°C and 150 rpm overnight.
