Abstract
Gel electrophoresis, a transport technology, is one of the most widely used experimental methods in biochemical and pharmaceutical research and development. Transport technologies are used to determine hydrodynamic or electrophoretic properties of macromolecules. Gel electrophoresis is a zone technology, where a small volume of sample is applied to a large separation gel matrix. In contrast, a seldom-used electrophoresis technology is moving boundary electrophoresis, where the sample is present throughout the separation phase or gel matrix. While the zone method gives peaks of separating macromolecular solutes, the moving boundary method gives a boundary between solute-free and solute-containing phases. We will review electrophoresis as a transport technology of zone and moving boundary methods and describe its principles and applications.

Development of a novel two-dimensional gel electrophoresis protocol with agarose native gel electrophoresis. Electrophoresis 2023; 44:1446-1460. [PMID: 37294166 DOI: 10.1002/elps.202200255] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/21/2022] [Revised: 05/22/2023] [Accepted: 05/23/2023] [Indexed: 06/10/2023]
Abstract
A new protocol for conducting two-dimensional (2D) electrophoresis was developed by combining the recently developed agarose native gel electrophoresis with either vertical sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) or flat SDS agarose gel electrophoresis. Our innovative technique utilizes His/MES buffer (pH 6.1) during the first-dimensional (1D) agarose native gel electrophoresis, which allows for the simultaneous and clear visualization of basic and acidic proteins in their native states or complex structures. Our agarose gel electrophoresis is a true native electrophoresis, unlike blue native-PAGE, which relies on the intrinsic charged states of the proteins and their complexes without the need for dye binding. In the 2D, the gel strip from the 1D agarose gel electrophoresis is soaked in SDS and placed on top of the vertical SDS-PAGE gels or the edge of the flat SDS-MetaPhor high-resolution agarose gels. This allows for customized operation using a single electrophoresis device at a low cost. This technique has been successfully applied to analyze various proteins, including five model proteins (BSA, factor Xa, ovotransferrin, IgG, and lysozyme), monoclonal antibodies with slightly different isoelectric points, polyclonal antibodies, and antigen-antibody complexes, as well as complex proteins such as IgM pentamer and β-galactosidase tetramer. Our protocol can be completed within a day, taking approximately 5-6 h, and can be expanded further into Western blot analysis, mass spectrometry analysis, and other analytical methods.

Non-Affinity Purification of Antibodies. Antibodies (Basel) 2023; 12:antib12010015. [PMID: 36810520 PMCID: PMC9944463 DOI: 10.3390/antib12010015] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/12/2023] [Revised: 02/01/2023] [Accepted: 02/09/2023] [Indexed: 02/16/2023] Open
Abstract
Currently, purification of antibodies is mainly carried out using a platform technology composed primarily of Protein A chromatography as a capture step, regardless of the scale. However, Protein A chromatography has a number of drawbacks, which are summarized in this review. As an alternative, we propose a simple small-scale purification protocol without Protein A that uses novel agarose native gel electrophoresis and protein extraction. For large-scale antibody purification, we suggest mixed-mode chromatography that can in part mimic the properties of Protein A resin, focusing on 4-Mercapto-ethyl-pyridine (MEP) column chromatography.

Detection of concentration-dependent conformational changes in SARS-CoV-2 nucleoprotein by agarose native gel electrophoresis. Anal Biochem 2023; 662:114995.

Abstract
The nucleoprotein (NP) of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is abundantly expressed during infection, making it a diagnostic target protein. We analyzed the structure of the NP in solution using a recombinant protein produced in E. coli. A codon-optimized Profinity eXact™-tagged NP cDNA was cloned into pET-3d vector and transformed into E. coli T7 Express. The recombinant protein was first purified via chromatographic step using an affinity tag-based system that was followed by tag cleavage with sodium fluoride, resulting in proteolytic removal of the N-terminal tag sequence. The digested sample was then loaded directly onto a size exclusion chromatography run in the presence of L-Arg-HCl, resulting in removal of host nucleic acids and endotoxin. The molecular mass of the main NP fraction was determined by mass photometry as a dimeric form of NP, consistent with the blue native PAGE results. Interestingly, analysis of the purified NP by our newly developed agarose native gel electrophoresis revealed that it behaved like an acidic protein at low concentration despite its alkaline isoelectric point (theoretical pI = 10) and displayed a unique character of concentration-dependent charge and shape changes. This study should shed light into the behavior of NP in the viral life cycle.

Analysis of bovine serum albumin unfolding in the absence and presence of ATP by SYPRO Orange staining of agarose native gel electrophoresis. Anal Biochem 2022; 654:114817.

Abstract
An attempt was made to specifically stain unfolded proteins on agarose native gels. SYPRO Orange is routinely used to detect unfolded protein in differential scanning fluorimetry, which is based on the enhanced fluorescence intensity upon binding to the unfolded protein. We demonstrated that this dye barely bound to the native proteins, resulting in no or faint staining of the native bands, but bound to and stained the unfolded proteins, on agarose native gels. Using bovine serum albumin (BSA), it was shown that staining did not depend on whether BSA was thermally unfolded in the presence of SYPRO Orange or stained after electrophoresis. On the contrary, SYPRO Orange dye stained protein bands in the presence of sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS) due to incorporation of the dye into SDS micelles that bound to the unfolded proteins. This staining resulted in detection of new, intermediately unfolded structure of BSA during thermal unfolding. Such intermediate structure occurred at higher temperature in the presence of ATP.

Ladder observation of bovine serum albumin by high resolution agarose native gel electrophoresis. Int J Biol Macromol 2022; 215:512-520.

Abstract
A commercially available bovine serum albumin (BSA) was examined by agarose native gel electrophoresis using two different agarose sources, UltraPure and MetaPhor agarose. While UltraPure agarose up to 5 % showed no clear separation of BSA oligomers, MetaPhor agarose clearly demonstrated oligomer bands above 4 %, indicating that the latter agarose has greater molecular sieving effects and is hence characterized to have high resolution for size differences, as probed by a greater slope of Ferguson plot. Physical properties are different between two agaroses. In general, UltraPure agarose has physical strength, while MetaPhor agarose is considerably fragile, but MetaPhor agarose solution is less viscous so that even 10 % gel can be made. Cause of oligomers was shown to be not associated with inter-chain disulfide bonds, but is due to association of native or native-like molecules.

Abstract
Electrophoresis is one of the most important analytical technologies for characterization of macromolecules and their interactions. Among them, native gel electrophoresis is used to analyze the macromolecules in the native structure. It differs in principle and information from those obtained by sodium dodecylsulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) or blue native polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (BN-PAGE). SDS-PAGE is carried out in the presence of strong denaturant, SDS, while BN-PAGE is done in the presence of negatively charged dye, e.g., Coomassie brilliant blue, G-250. Here, we describe native gel electrophoresis using agarose gel and a buffer at pH 6.1 composed of histidine and 2-(N-morpholino) ethanesulfonic acid. First, a protocol for vertical and horizontal formats of agarose native gel electrophoresis is described followed by different staining procedures. Then, various examples obtained using the developed procedure will be shown to demonstrate how the technology can be applied to specific cases and the advantages or caveats of the present technology.

Abstract
We have developed a new Western blotting method of native proteins from agarose-based gel electrophoresis using a buffer at pH 6.1 containing basic histidine and acidic 2-(N-morpholino)ethanesulfonic acid. This gel electrophoresis successfully provided native structures for a variety of proteins and macromolecular complexes. This paper is focused on the Western blotting of native protein bands separated on agarose gels. Two blotting methods from agarose gel to PVDF membrane are introduced here, one by contact (diffusion) blotting and another by electroblotting after pre-treating the agarose gels with SDS. The contact blotting resulted in the transfer of native GFP, native human plexin domain containing protein 2 (PLXDC2) and native SARS-CoV-2 spike protein, which were detected by conformation-specific antibodies generated in-house.

Abstract
Infections of CTX-M extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing Enterobacterales are a severe threat in clinical settings. CTX-M genes on plasmids have been transferred to many Enterobacterales species, and these species have spread, leading to the global problem of antimicrobial resistance. Here, we developed a lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) based on an anti-CTX-M rabbit monoclonal antibody. This antibody detected CTX-M variants from the CTX-M-9, CTX-M-2, and CTX-M-1 groups expressed in clinical isolates. The LFIA showed 100% sensitivity and specificity with clinical isolates on agar plates, and its limit of detection was 0.8 ng/mL recombinant CTX-M-14. The rabbit monoclonal antibody did not cross-react with bacteria producing other class A β-lactamases, including SHV. In conclusion, we developed a highly sensitive and specific LFIA capable of detecting CTX-M enzyme production in Enterobacterales. We anticipate that our LFIA will become a point-of-care test enabling rapid detection of CTX-M in hospital and community settings as well as a rapid environmental test.

Abstract
Agarose native gel electrophoresis has been developed to separate proteins and protein complexes in the native state. Here, we applied this technology to analyze proteins that undergo degradation, post-translational modification or chemical/physical changes. Antibodies showed aggregation/association upon acid or heat treatment. Limited reduction of disulfide bonds resulted in non-covalent aggregation of bovine serum albumin and cleavage of only inter-chain linkages of an antibody that had no effects on its overall structure. Native agarose gel analysis showed changes in mobility of human transferrin upon Fe3+ binding. Analysis of a commercial glycated human hemoglobin A1c showed no difference in electrophoretic pattern from un-modified hemoglobin. Native agarose gel showed aggregation of a virus upon acid or heat treatment. We have extracted bands of bovine serum albumin from the agarose native gel for sodium dodecylsulfate gel electrophoresis analysis, showing degradation of aged sample. Lastly, we analyzed phosphorylation of Zap70 kinase by native gel and Western blotting. These applications should expand the utility of this native gel electrophoresis technology.

Abstract
Bax is a proapoptotic protein that is required for programmed cell death (PCD) of many neuronal populations. Here we show that, during an early period of retinal PCD and in naturally occurring sensory and motor neuron (MN) death in the spinal cord, Bax delivery results in enhanced death of these neural populations. In contrast, Bax overexpression fails to enhance an early phase of MN death that occurs in the cervical spinal cord, although overexpressed Bax appears to be activated in dying MNs. Bax overexpression does not also affect the survival of immature neurons prior to the PCD period. Taken together, these data provide the first in vivo evidence suggesting that Bax appears to act selectively as an executioner only in neurons undergoing PCD. Furthermore, although Bax appears to mediate the execution pathway for PCD, the effect of Bax overexpression on susceptibility to death differs between different neuronal populations.

Abstract
Antipyrine is a useful probe to evaluate variation of in vivo activities of oxidative hepatic drug-metabolizing enzymes. Here we describe a new approach using (13)C labeling and NMR spectroscopy for the direct and simultaneous detection of all phase I and phase II metabolites of antipyrine in rat urine. [C-methyl-(13)C]Antipyrine was synthesized and administered orally to rats (100 mg/kg), and the 0- to 24-h postdose urine was analyzed by 100-MHz (13)C NMR spectroscopy under the conditions of distortionless enhancement by polarization transfer without any pretreatments such as deconjugation, chromatographic separation, and solvent extraction. Consequently, all the major metabolites in urine were successfully detected with favorable signal-to-noise ratios in the limited acquisition time (30 min). The assignments of the resonances were performed by enzymic modification and spiking authentic samples. The reproducibility of the NMR detection was sufficient for the quantitative evaluation of the metabolic profile. Effects of 3-methylcholanthrene on antipyrine metabolism were examined by this approach to evaluate variation of in vivo phase I and phase II metabolism of antipyrine in rats. The present approach is useful and practical to evaluate variation of in vivo activities of conjugation enzymes as well as oxidation enzymes responsible for the formation of antipyrine metabolites in rats. This direct approach would enhance the value of the antipyrine test because of the simplicity and convenience.

Abstract
Internal acyl migration reactions of drug 1beta-O-acyl glucuronides are of interest because of their possible role in covalent binding to serum proteins and consequent allergic reactions as well as their influence on drug disposition. An approach using 13C labeling and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy has been used to investigate in situ the kinetics of acyl migration and hydrolysis of 1beta-O-acyl glucuronides of enantiomeric ketoprofens (KPs) in phosphate buffer solutions at 37 degrees C. Apparent first-order degradation of the 1beta-O-acyl glucuronide labeled in the ester carbonyl carbon and the sequential appearance of 2-, 3-, and 4-O-acyl isomers as both alpha- and beta-anomeric forms were observed for each enantiomer. All of the positional isomers and anomers were characterized using two-dimensional NMR spectroscopy (heteronuclear multiple bond correlation, correlated spectroscopy, totally correlated spectroscopy) of the reaction mixtures. The overall degradation rate constants (hr-1) of (R)- and (S)-KP glucuronides were 1.07 +/- 0.154 and 0.55 +/- 0.034, respectively. To evaluate in detail the stereoselective reactivity, a kinetic model describing the rearrangement reactions was constructed, and the kinetics were simulated using a theoretical approach. Only the acyl migration, 1beta-->2beta, was found to have significant stereoselectivity. The rate constants (hr-1) for 1beta-->2beta migration of (R)- and (S)-KP glucuronides were 1.04 +/- 0.158 and 0. 52 +/- 0.029, respectively. The results may suggest that (R)-KP glucuronide could be more susceptible to covalent binding to proteins via acyl migration than the corresponding antipode. This stereoselective reactivity may be responsible for the stereoselective pharmacokinetics of KP. The direct approach using 13C labeling and NMR spectroscopy could also provide insight into the reactivities of other labile drug acyl glucuronides and their isomeric glucuronides.

Abstract
It was confirmed that the flexible arm region of HU alpha forms an antiparallel beta-sheet and that all of the residues of phenylalanines, together with some of leucines and/or valines, form a hydrophobic core within the dimer of HU alpha. HU alpha protein alone is thermally labile and melts at 38 degrees C, but it becomes remarkably stabilized and melts at 59 degrees C in the presence of DNA. Several resonances from both HU alpha and DNA perturbed by their complex formation, notably those of His C-2 and C-4 protons, downfield shifted C alpha protons in the antiparallel beta-sheet, as well as Arg C delta and Lys C epsilon protons. The results indicated that a beta-sheet region of HU alpha binds to DNA, and also showed that rapid equilibrium occurs on the NMR time scale between bound and unbound states of HU alpha. A few intermolecular nuclear Overhauser effects (NOEs) were also observed between the protein and H1' protons of DNA in the complex, suggesting that HU alpha binds primarily to the minor groove of DNA.
