Popis: Aptamers are oligonucleotides or peptide molecules that are able to bind to their specific target molecules with high affinity via molecular recognition. In this study, we present development of aptamer-based affinity purification for His-tagged proteins for comparison of purification efficiency with the conventional Ni2+-based affinity chromatography. Thiol-functionalized aptamers able to specifically bind to His-tag were immobilized employing two crosslinking methods onto the surface of polystyrene resins. The resulting aptamer-anchored resins were successfully applied for purification of His-tagged proteins from complex E. coli and human cell lysates, respectively, and superior or at least comparable purification results to the conventional immobilized metal affinity chromatography were obtained via one-step purification.
