One can choose to use the three enzymes in combination to completely remove all N-linked glycans present on a glycoprotein or peptide,The Endo F Multi-Kit will deglycosylate N-linked glycans in both native and denatured conditions. Each enzyme has a distinct specificity for N-linked glycan release. One can choose to use the three enzymes in combination to completely remove all N-linked glycans present on a glycoprotein or peptide, or to use each enzyme independently and thereby determine the type of N-glycans present.Product DescriptionThe Endo F Multi-kit is recommended to deglycosylate native proteins that are resistant to PNGase F cleavage under non-denatured conditions due to the glycan location within the protein’s three-dimensional structure, as these enzymes are known to be less sensitive to protein conformation.Each of the enzymes has a different N-linked glycan specificity:Endoglycosidase F1 cleaves high mannose and some hybrid type N-glycansEndoglycosidase F2 releases biantennary and high mannose glycans (at a 40X reduced rate)Endoglycosidase F3 will release triantennarry and fucosylated biantennary N-glycansContents1 vial: Endo F1- 20 µl (0.3 U)20 mM Tris-HCl pH 7.51 vial: Endo F2- 20 µl (0.1 U)10 mM sodium acetate, 25 mM NaCl, pH 4.51 vial: Endo F3- 20 µl (0.1 U)20 mM Tris-HCl pH 7.51 vial: 5x Reaction Buffer - 400 µl250 mM sodium acetate, pH4.51 vial: 5x Reaction Buffer - 400 µl250 mM sodium phosphate, pH5.5Specific ActivityDefined as the amount of enzyme required to catalyze the release of N-linked oligosaccharides from 1 micro-mole of denatured Ribonuclease B (Endo F1) or porcine fibrinogen peptides (Endo F2/F3) in 1 minute at 37°C, pH 5.5 (PH 4.5 for Endo F3). Cleavage is monitored by SDS-PAGE.FormulationThe enzymes are provided as a sterile-filtered solution.StabilitySeveral days exposure to ambient temperatures will not reduce activity. Stable at least 12 months when stored properly.SpecificityEndo F1 cleaves Asparagine-linked (N-linked) high mannose or hybrid oligosaccharides. Endo F2 cleaves N-linked biantennary oligosaccharides and high mannose (at a 40X reduced rate). Endo F3 cleaves free or N-linked fucosylated biantennary or triantennary oligosaccharides,as well as triamannosylchitobiose core structures. These enzymes cleave between the two N-acetylglucosamine residues in the diacetylchitobiose core of the oligosaccharide, generating a truncated sugar molecule with one N-acetylglucosamine residue remaining on the asparagine. The recombinant version is not glycosylated, which may result in properties differing from the native protein.Quality & PurityEndo F1, Endo F2, and Endo F3 are tested for contaminating protease as follows: 10 µg of denatured BSA is incubated at 37°C for 24 hours with 2 µl of enzyme. SDS-PAGE analysis of the treated BSA shows no evidence of degradation. The absence of exoglycosidase contaminants is confirmed by extended incubations with the corresponding pNP-glycosides. Directions for use 1. Add up to 200 µg of glycoprotein to an Eppendorf tube. Adjust to 34 µl final volume with de-ionized water. 2. Add 10 µl Endo F2 &F3 5x Reaction Buffer, 250 mM sodium acetate pH 4.5. Use Endo F1 buffer, 250 mM sodium phosphate pH 5.5 if you are using the Endo F1 enzyme alone. 4. Add 2.0 µl of each enzyme to the reaction. Incubate 3 hours at 37°C. Monitor cleavage by SDS-PAGE. Applications– Deglycosylation of native proteins resistant to PNGase F cleavage– Determination of glycan type (high mannose, biantennary, tri/tetrantennary)– Deglycosylating proteins which normally precipitate when deglycosylating– X-Ray CrystallographyThese three enzymes cleave asparagine-linked (N-linked) oligosaccharides between the two GlcNAc residues in the core of the oligosaccharide, generating a truncated sugar molecule with one N-acetylglucosamine residue remaining on the asparagine, enhancing the solubility of the protein. In contrast, PNGase F removes the oligosaccharide intact...

It is easy to operate, has high detection sensitivity, low background, does not require the addition of secondary antibodies, and has strong system stability. The conventional Western Blot indirect detection process (blocking, primary antibody binding, and secondary antibody binding) requires a long time, a complex experimental process, and requires multi-step condition optimization. After transferring the protein on the gel to the carrier membrane, incubate it with the blocking solution in the reagent kit for 5 minutes, and then incubate the carrier membrane with the primary antibody treated with antibody reaction solution. After washing three times (5 minutes each time), luminescence or colorimetric detection can be performed. This reagent kit is designed for use in experimental systems where the target protein primary antibody is derived from mice.Notes:1. The customer prepares their own mouse source primary antibody.2. Before using Blocking Buffer blocking solution, Antibody Pretreat Solution (HRP/Mouse) antibody reaction solution (mouse), and Wash Buffer (10 x) rinse solution, please mix thoroughly.3. If there is precipitation in the rinsing solution when stored at 2-8 ℃, please restore it to room temperature, dissolve the precipitation, and use it normally. The 1x rinsing solution can be stored at room temperature for one month.4. It is recommended to stain the membrane with reagents such as spring red after the transfer is completed, and cut off any excess parts on the membrane to increase the efficiency of the reagents.5. The optimal dilution amount for primary antibody and antibody reaction solution HRP (mouse) needs to be determined through preliminary experiments.6. The antibody reaction solution HRP (mouse), antibody dilution solution, and antibody dosage can be increased or decreased proportionally according to the size of the membrane.7. The antibody dilution solution containing the first antibody can be recycled and reused once. It is recommended not to reuse antibodies with poor specificity and affinity. If the recovered antibody is used within 1-2 days and stored at 2-8 ℃ for long-term storage, please freeze it at -20 ℃ to avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.8. If there is a high background, please adjust the amount of antibodies and increase the number of times the film is washed.9. All reagents in the reagent kit should be stored at 2-8 ℃ to avoid freezing and thawing.Operation steps:This product is suitable for the sealing and antibody incubation steps after membrane transfer, taking a 5 cm x 8 cm membrane as an example:1. Preparation of rinsing solution: Dilute 10 ml of Wash Buffer (10 x) with distilled water to 100 ml, which is 1 x Wash Buffer. Set aside. Use 8-10 ml for each film wash.2. Sealing: After the membrane transfer is completed, immerse the membrane in 10 ml Blocking Buffer and seal at room temperature for 5 minutes.3. Rinse: Pour off the sealing solution, add 8-10 ml of 1 x Wash Buffer, and rinse at a high speed on a shaker for 1 minute.4. Prepare antibody incubation solution while washing the membrane: Take Antibody Pretreat Solution (HRP/Mouse) 100 µ Add mouse derived primary antibody 3-10 into the centrifuge tube µ g. Suck and beat the gun head until thoroughly mixed, and incubate at room temperature for 5 minutes. Add to 10 ml Dilution Buffer and mix well. Note: 1) The dosage of primary antibody can also be adjusted according to the dilution of the antibody. Taking the final dilution of antibodies at 1:1000 as an example, take 100 µ Add HRP (mouse) antibody reaction solution into the EP tube and add 10 µ Add the first antibody to 10 ml of antibody diluent, mix well, and incubate at room temperature for 5 minutes. 2) If the membrane area is small, the amount of antibodies, reaction solution, and diluent can be reduced proportionally.5. After completing step 3, pour out the rinsing solution and add the antibody incubation solution mixed with primary antibody, Antibody Pretreat Solution (HRP/Mouse), and Dilution Buffer to the membrane (ensuring that the incubation solution completely submerges the surface of the membrane). Incubate at room temperature on a shaker at around 60 rpm for 40 minutes.6. Discard (recover) the antibody incubation solution and rinse 3-5 times with the prepared 1 x Wash Buffer, each time for 3 minutes. 7. Conduct subsequent testing. It is recommended to use ECL or DAB methods for testing.Application examples:Example 1 Antigen is 293T cell lysateA: Normal WB control: beta actin mouse monoclonal antibody (CW0096) 5 µ Incubate at room temperature for 40 minutes, wash the film and dilute the secondary antibody sheep anti mouse HRP (CW0102) 1:10000.
