| Description | Affinity resins have been widely used for the purification of enzymes and other proteins that bind nucleotides and related molecules. GTP-agarose resin comprises GTP attached to agarose beads via its gamma-phosphate. A long hydrophilic spacer (14-atom) is used to minimise unwanted hydrophobic interactions and to facilitate unhindered interactions with biomolecules. The ligand is coupled through the gamma-phosphate group which means that the resin is resistant to phosphatases found in many crude tissue extracts. The Control Resin is just the agarose with no GTP bound. |
