Introduction

The MutS DNA Mismatch Protein Identifies heteroduplex DNAs comprising mis-paired or unpaired bases. The MutS DNA Mismatch Protein binds in vitro to heteroduplex DNAs comprising mis-paired or unpaired bases over a varied temperature range from 4-70 °C and obtains a thermostable ATPase activity. The MutS DNA Mismatch Protein is active at temperature between 0 to 75°C. Since The MutS DNA Mismatch Protein competently binds to 1-4 bases deletion (or insertion) and mismatch base pairs of GT, CT and AG, it is suitable for sensing these mutations. Mutations can be distinguished in polyacrylamide gels or on a solid phase such as Ni agarose or beads or magnetic Ni-NTA particles.

Description

DNA Mismatch Repair Protein MutS Thermus Aquaticus Recombinant produced in E.coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 829 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 92.8kDa.
The Thermus Aquaticus is fused to a 6 amino acid His-Tag at C-terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.

Source

Escherichia Coli.

Physical Appearance

Sterile filtered colorless solution.

Formulation

The MutS protein is supplied in 20mM Tris-HCl, pH-8, 250mM NaCl, 0.1mM EDTA, 1mM DTT and 50% Glycerol.

Stability

Store at 4°C if entire vial will be used within 2-4 weeks. Store, frozen at -20°C for longer periods of time. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA). Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles.

Preparation protocol

1. After first round PCR, purify PCR fragments using Qiagen QIAquick PCR purification kit with elution in dH2O.

 2. Dilute PCR product to 250 ng/µl in 10 mM Tris–HCl, pH 7.8, 50 mM NaCl and heat to 95 °C for 5 min followed by cooling at 0.1°C /s to 25 °C.

 3. Add binding buffer (20 mM Tris–HCl, pH 7.8, 10 mM NaCl, 5 mM MgCl2, 1 mM DTT and 5% glycerol) to annealed PCR product, adjust DNA concentration to 11.5 ng/µl, add MutS dimers to 950 nM.

4. Incubate the mixture at room temperature for 10 min, then add an equal volume of Ni-NTA beads pre-equilibrated with 1×binding buffer, and incubate for 30 min at room temperature.

5. Gently spin down beads and save supernatant for subsequent processing (second round PCR, cloning etc).

Applications

Recommended Applications:

1. Remove mismatch DNA (error correction) from gene synthesis reaction

2. Mutation detection and removal

3. Rapid isothermal SNP detection
