Background

The tobacco etch virus (TEV) protease is a useful tool for the removal of fusion tags from recombinant proteins. TEV protease has a strict 7 amino acid cleavage recognition sequence of Glu-Asn-Leu-Tyr-Phe-Gln-Gly/Ser [ENLYFQ(G/S)] and cleavage occurs between the Gln and Gly/Ser residues, The most commonly used sequence is ENLYFQG. It is recommended that the cleavage for each fusion protein be optimized by varying the amount of recombinant viral TEV protease, reaction time, or incubation temperature. It can be removed by Ni2+ affinity resin. Recombinant Tobacco Etch Virus Protease (rTEV) has (NIa) protease catalytic domain which corresponds to a molecular weight of 28 kDa. It is unique with high specificity and is active at low temperature. rTEV Protease has a 6*His-tag for easy removal from a reaction using nickel affinity resins and has been engineered to improve thermal stability and decrease autolysis.

Components

  1. TEV Protease;
  2. 10X TEV Protease Buffer + Salt: 500mM Tris-HCl, pH8.0, 500mM NaCl, 5mM EDTA, 10mM DTT;
  3. 10X TEV Protease Buffer – Salt: 500mM Tris-HCl, pH8.0, 5mM EDTA, 10mM DTT;

Protocol

1. Add the following to a microcentrifuge tube:

Fusion Protein

15μg

10X rTEV Protease Buffer +/– Salt

5μl

rTEV Protease

5U

ddH2O

To 50μl

2. Mix and incubate at 30°C, Remove 10 μL aliquots at 1, 2, 4, and 6 hours.

3. Analyze by SDS-PAGE. 



Guidelines for Cleavage

  • For most fusion proteins, TEV Protease functions optimally in a reaction mixture without NaCl; however, conditions may be optimized by varying the NaCl concentration from 0 mM to 500 mM. Remember to take into account the contribution of salt from the enzyme and from your substrate. When setting up your cleavage reaction, use the appropriate 10X rTEV Protease Buffer +/- Salt.
  • Researchers need to optimize their specific reaction conditions. As an initial suggestion, 10 units of rTEV protease can be used per 30μg of target protein for 1 hour at 30 °C, or overnight at 2–8 °C. The cleavage efficiency can then be estimated by SDS-PAGE.

Unit Definition

One unit of TEV protease cleaves ≥85% of 3 μg of control substrate in 1 hour at pH 8.0

These are the best paper towel ever!
Package Size Name: Family Triple Roll, Size: 141 Sheets (Pack of 12)
The reason I say these are the best paper towels is because they are more like a cloth than actual paper. If you're doing something larger like cleaning the kitchen sinks you can usually get by with just one. You can wet it down, ring it out and continue working. When it's time to dry, these soak up so much more liquid than any other towel... It's crazy! They are a bit on the expensive side, but you'll use so fewer towels that it makes up the difference.

Strong, mighty and reusable.
Package Size Name: Triple, Size: 141 Sheets (Pack of 2)
I love these specifically for our RV because they work great to take my makeup off at the end of day as well. These really are different and more durable then most others on the market. Can even be rinsed and reused before discarded if need be.

Close to a cloth
Package Size Name: Triple, Size: 141 Sheets (Pack of 16)
Hi All, These are simply terrific paper towels that are close to grabbing a cloth. They come in triple size rolls which we find helpful. I get the ones that can tear at a half size sheet, and find the roll last longer when you don't have to use a full sheet for everything. For paper, these are softer than most, and don't have that sandpaper feeling like so many do. I think you'll like them. Prices and sizes change depending on the stock available so watch for the right price for the right rolls you prefer.

Super absorbing towels
Package Size Name: Triple, Size: 141 Sheets (Pack of 2)
Viva is the best paper towels out there. You can wring them out and reuse them. Super absorbent and nice thickness. Definitely recommend.
