Results
Benefits of Magnetic Beads for IP-MS
•
Lower background: Minimal non-specific binding
•
High signal to noise: Easy and efficient washing, less void volume reduces the
chance of losing sample
•
Easy handling: Easy separation of resin
•
Time and effort: Less washing and faster incubation (60 minutes start to finish)
•
Better reproducibility: Product and handling consistency
•
Ab savings: All binding on outer surface
•
Automation: Improves throughput and reproducibility
FIGURE 3. Evaluation of EGFR immunocapture efficiency and selectivity.
EGFR immunoprecipitation was used to evaluate directly coupled antibody or
biotinylated antibody with immobilized streptavidin resin. A) Capture efficiency was
determined by Western blot. B) EGFR sequence coverage and background proteins
were determined by LC-MS/MS after elution and trypsin digestion. IP using magnetic
beads resulted in fewer background proteins identified and higher EGFR sequence
coverage.
FIGURE 2. Experimental workflow for IP-MS research method development.
Protein targets are immune-enriched from matrix and analyzed by silver stain or
Western blot after gel electrophoresis. IP samples are also digested with trypsin and
analyzed by nLC-MS/MS to identify candidate quantitative peptides. Heavy isotope-
labeled, quantitative peptide standards are then used in targeted SRM or MRM
research methods for absolute quantitation.
