Remove-iT® PNGase F Magnetic Chitin Bead Protocol (P0706)

Materials

Protocol

1. Pipette 50 µl Chitin Magnetic Beads into an eppendorf tube and place the eppendorf in a Magnetic Separation Rack. Let the magnet attract the chitin beads, then pipette off the liquid supernatant and discard.
2. With the eppendorf on the magnetic separation rack, wash the magnetic chitin beads 2 x 500 µl with 50 mM NH₄ Formate pH 4.4 (or buffer of choice). Pipette of the supernatant and discard.
3. Add the deglycosylated glycoprotein sample into the eppendorf with magnetic chitin beads.
4. Rock the deglycosylated glycoprotein sample with the magnetic chitin beads for 10 minutes at 4°C.
5. Place the eppendorf back on the magnetic separation rack, and allow the magnet to attract the chitin beads. Pipette off the supernatant and keep.
6. Wash the magnetic chitin beads 3 x 100 µl with 50 mM NH₄ Formate pH 4.4 (or buffer of choice). Pipette of the supernatant from each wash and keep.
7. Combine all supernatants from steps 5 & 6, as these are the deglycosylated glycoprotein.
8. Analyze sample by method of choice
