X Abstract

HaloLink™ Resin provides a new method for specific, covalent and oriented immobilization of proteins onto surfaces. The strategy is based on the HaloTag™ Protein, which is derived from a catalytically inactive hydrolase engineered to form a covalent bond with a specific ligand. Here we demonstrate the high binding capacity and minimal nonspecific binding of the HaloLink™ Resin. We also show that the covalent HaloTag™ bond provides stability during dilution and stringent washing, minimizing the loss of the HaloTag™ fusion proteins from the surface. By analyzing protein:protein interactions and enzyme activity for several fusion proteins, we also demonstrate that fusion proteins bound to the HaloLink™ Resin maintain functionality. HaloLink™ Resin is not a purification resin; however, in conjunction with protease cleavage, it can be used to isolate a protein of interest.

CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
