Refore a variety of detergents were used to extract OPRM from E.coli membrane and as controls: Zwitterionic detergents (1 (w/v) LDAO, 1 (w/v) Fos-12), nonionic detergents (1 (w/v) DDM, 1 (w/v) Cy6) and anionic detergent (1 (w/v) SDS, 0.8 (w/v) laurylsarcosine with/without 6 M urea). The detergents for the isolation of folded protein were chosen to cover the typical range of micelle aggregation numbers (10?33) and a reduced range of hydrophile-lipophile balances (HLB: 5.3 to 14.2) [30]. The more hydrophilic detergents with HLB.14.2 were excluded because complete solubilisation of the target protein was aimed for. Urea without detergent showed very poor solubilisation efficiency. The 256373-96-3 receptor remained in the pellet upon solubilisation, indicating the receptor was located in the membrane. Solubilisation using mild detergents turned out to be only moderately successful. Extraction of OPRM with SDS, laurylsarcosine alone, or 6 M urea with 0.8 (w/v) laurylsarcosine proved to be most efficient (Figure 3A and B). The detergent Fos-12 was outstanding in solubilisation of the receptor. No residual receptor was found in the pellet after solubilisation.Isolation of OPRMPurification of OPRM was MedChemExpress Ornipressin carried out with several purification strategies such as affinity chromatography, ionic exchange chromatography and size exclusion chromatography. Ionic exchange chromatography was found to be of limited value in purification of the membrane protein especially when solubilised with an ionic or zwitterionic detergent. OPRM extracted from membrane was purified through metal chelate affinity chromatography (NI-NTA) two times, followed by size exclusion (Superdex 200) chromatography. In the first purification step the majority of OPRM 1317923 can be captured by NiNTA (Figure 4A). A second Ni-NTA chromatography of the diluted sample improves the purity to ca. 85 . Residual impurities and aggregated material were removed by (SEC) size exclusion chromatography (Figure 4B). It was also used to assess the state of aggregation of OPRM (Figure 5): Peak 1 (Superdex 200 HR 10/30, GE Healthcare in 0.1 (w/v) Fos-12) shows aggregated protein. It was regarded to be caused by the instability of the protein in detergent, respectively the presence of misfolded and unfolded protein. Thus a final yield of 0.17 mg/liter of culture was obtained by Ni-NTA and size exclusion chromatography (Figure 4B). The elution profile of the receptor shows a peak with an apparent molecular weight of the Fos-12/receptor complex of ca. 158 kDa (underlined in Figure 5). The expected molecular weight of the Fos-12/receptor complex is ca. 65 kDa (Mw of OPRM 46 kD, and Mw of Fos-12 micelle (in H2O) ,19 kD). It appears that the apparent molecular weight for this Fos-12/receptor complex does not agree with the expected molecular weight of the monomeric detergent-receptor complex. The difference between the predicted and the observed Mw might be due to non-ideal behavior of the detergent/receptor complex in the size exclusion column or dimerisation.Figure 1.
