Streptavidin Mutein Matrix SAVSBPM18

Streptavidin SBPM18 is a streptavidin mutein that can bind both biotinylated proteins and SBP tagged proteins with high affinity (Kd ~10-8M) in a reversible manner.

Highlights:

  • Provided as SBPM18 mutein-Sepharose CL-6B affinity matrix
  • Ideal for affinity purification of both biotinylated biomolecules and recombinant proteins tagged with streptavidin binding peptide (SBP) tags
  • Target proteins can be affinity purified in high purity and with excellent recovery
  • Mild conditions are used for elution of target proteins and regeneration of the column
  • Many buffers can be used for in the binding, washing and elution steps
  • The affinity matrix is reusable

Streptavidin binding peptide (SBP) tag is a peptide tag that binds to streptavidin with nmolar binding affinity (2). Although the original peptide tag is 38 amino acids in length, crystallographic and biochemical studies indicate that only 25 amino acids are essential for high affinity binding (3). It has high binding affinity to streptavidin because both the N- and C-terminal ends of the 25-amino-acid tag can bind simultaneously to the binding pockets in streptavidin, a tetrameric protein with a binding pocket in each subunit (3). One streptavidin can bind two SBP tags. Since the peptide binding pocket in each streptavidin subunit is the same as the biotin binding pocket in the subunit, biotin binding can effectively displace the bound SBP tag. Natural streptavidin captures biotin extremely tight (Kd ~10-14M). This streptavidin mutein has two mutations to weaken the interactions between biotin and streptavidin (1). This leads to biotin binding in a reversible manner. To simplify the preparation of the affinity matrix, the streptavidin mutein is fused to an agarose binding domain (4). The SAVSBPM18-ABD fusion binds tightly to Sepharose CL-6B. Affinity matrices prepared in this manner show comparable properties as matrices prepared via chemical coupling.

Research
Biotinylated proteins can be generated via enzymatic method (e.g. use the E. coli biotin ligase to biotinylate AviTag fusion proteins). This approach will generate biotinylated proteins with one biotin/protein. Chemical biotinylation usually results in multiple biotin groups per protein. Biotinylated proteins with multiple biotin groups per molecule will offer tighter binding. BSA with 12 biotin groups per protein can be effectively eluted off from this matrix under very mild elution conditions.

Comments
  • Approximately 500 ug of M18-ABD is immobilized per ml of matrix.
  • Monomeric MW of M18-ABD is 33841 gm/mole.
  • Approximately 15 nmoles of M18-ABD (15 nmoles of biotin binding site) per ml of matrix in our prep.

Very mild conditions (washing with a buffer containing biotin) are sufficient to elute the bound target proteins from the matrices. Extensive wash of the column with the buffer without biotin can effectively regenerate the streptavidin mutein matrix for the next round of purification.

See references 1 and 4 for detailed operating conditions.
