| Description | Annexins are a family of calcium-dependent phospholipid-binding proteins that preferentially bind phosphatidylserine (PS). Under normal physiologic conditions, PS is predominantly located in the inner leaflet of the plasma membrane. Upon initiation of apoptosis, PS loses its asymmetric Annexins are a family of calcium-dependent phospholipid-binding proteins that preferentially bind phosphatidylserine (PS). Under normal physiologic conditions, PS is predominantly located in the inner leaflet of the plasma membrane. Upon initiation of apoptosis, PS loses its asymmetric distribution across the phospholipid bilayer and is translocated to the extracellular membrane leaflet marking cells as targets of phagocytosis. Once on the outer surface of the membrane, PS can be detected by fluorescently labeled Annexin V in a calcium-dependent manner. In early-stage apoptosis, the plasma membrane excludes viability dyes such as 4',6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI）, propidium iodide (PI), 7-AAD. These cells will stain with Annexin V but not a viability dye, thus distinguishing cells in early apoptosis. However, in late stage apoptosis, the cell membrane loses integrity thereby allowing Annexin V to also access PS in the interior of the cell. A viability dye can be used to resolve these late-stage apoptotic and necrotic cells (Annexin V, viability dye-positive) from the early-stage apoptotic cells (Annexin V positive, viability dye-negative). This kit is suitable for the identification and enumeration of dead cells, such as apoptotic or necrotic cells, by flow cytometry.A1456534Components20 T50 T100 TStorageQuantity Per TestA1456534A10× Annexin V Binding Buffer5 mL10 mL20 mL2-8℃200 µL 0.5-1.0 × 10⁵ cellsA1456534BAnnexin V -APC100 µL250 µL500 µL2-8℃.

Please try to avoid light when using to slow down the quenching of fluorescence.2. DAPI Solution is toxigenic and mutagenic; handle with care.3. Due to the calcium dependence of the Annexin V:PS interaction, it is critical to avoid buffers containing EDTA or other calcium chelators during Annexin V experiments.Instruction for use 1. Dilute 10X Binding Buffer to 1X using distilled water (1 mL 10X Binding Buffer + 9 mL ddH2O).2. Wash cells twice with cold PBS and then resuspend the desired amount of cells in Annexin V Binding Buffer at a concentration of 0.5- 1.0 × 10⁶ cells /mL.3. Add 5 µL of Annexin V-APC and 1 µL of DAPI staining solution to 100 µL of cell suspension.4. Add 100 µLof 1x Binding Buffer to each assay. Gently vortex the cells and incubate for 10 min at RT (25°C) in the dark.5. Analyze by flow cytometry within 1 hr...

During the extraction process, there is no need for ultrasonic fragmentation, effectively avoiding contamination of exogenous Bacterial protein extraction reagents use mild non-ionic detergents and are suitable for extracting recombinant proteins expressed in Escherichia coli and insect cells. During the extraction process, there is no need for ultrasonic fragmentation, effectively avoiding contamination of exogenous proteins. This product can be applied to extract soluble proteins from bacterial lysates. The bacterial protein extraction kit adds a mixture of lysozyme, DNase I, and protease inhibitors to the extraction reagent, which can improve the efficiency of protein extraction and reduce the viscosity caused by DNA, effectively avoiding protein degradation. The extracted protein maintains biological activity and can be subjected to downstream operations such as IP, Western blot, and protein purification.

This product is suitable for extracting proteins from fresh or frozen bacterial and insect cells.2. This product uses Tris buffer system. Please use the same buffer system for protein purification after extraction.3. The protein lysis solution obtained from this product can be used for protein quantification using BCA or Bradford method.4. For special strains, if the extraction effect is not ideal, the sample can be frozen before protein extraction.5. Depending on the specific situation, protease inhibitors, salts, chelating agents, reducing agents, etc. can be added to this product.Operation steps: ● Insect cell protein extraction1. Collect cells by low-speed centrifugation. Add 10 to every 1 ml of Bacterial Protein Extraction Agent µ The Protein Inhibitor Cocktail is 1 x working fluid.2. Weigh the wet weight of the cells and add 1 x working solution at a rate of 10 ml/g.3. After resuspension, incubate on ice for 20 minutes (the ice storage time should be adjusted according to different cell types).Centrifuge at 4.15000 × g for 15 minutes to isolate soluble proteins. ● Extraction of soluble bacterial proteins 1.

Optional steps: Add 1 ml of Bacterial Protein Extraction Reagent every 1 ml µ DNase I (1000 U/ml), 2 µ Lysozyme (50 mg/ml) and 10 µ Protein Inhibitor Cocktail, vortex oscillation and mixing. 3. Add 20 ml of Bacterial Protein Extraction Reagent to each gram of bacterial precipitate, and add the extraction solution to the bacterial precipitate. Vortex thoroughly or use a pipette to blow up and down until the bacterial precipitate is completely resuspended.4. After resuspension, incubate at room temperature for 10-15 minutes (the storage time should be adjusted according to different cell types). 5. Centrifuge at 15000 × g for 5 minutes.6. Transfer the supernatant to a new centrifuge tube (the supernatant is soluble protein) for protein quantification and downstream experiments.Note: If the target protein exists in the form of inclusion bodies, inclusion body protein solution can be used for dissolution or expression conditions can be optimized to increase the expression of soluble proteins.Frequently asked questions: Problem Possible reasons Resolvent The target protein is insoluble The target protein is expressed as an inclusion body Optimize expression conditions or add Lysozyme and DNase I to protein extraction reagents using inclusion body protein solution After adding Lysozyme, the target protein has not been extracted yet Temperature too low Restore the reagent to room temperature After adding Lysozyme, the target protein has not been extracted yet Lysozyme Decreased or inactivated activity Add more Lysozymes or replace with new enzymes Extract has high viscosity DNase I Decreased or inactivated activity Add more DNase I or replace with a new DNase I to increase the final concentration of magnesium ions to 2 mM After protein extraction, most of the proteins still exist in the precipitate Excessive protein content Add Lysozyme and DNase I The protein extraction reagent has sediment precipitation Temperature too low Restore the protein extraction reagent to room temperature...
