To test the feasibility of site-specific DNA-affinity chromatography, E. coli lac repressor was bound to an operator-containing DNA column, and in parallel to a non-operator DNA column. Salt gradient elution shows: 1) elution from non-operator DNA was near 250mM KCl or NaCl; interpretation of this result suggests the usefulness of the procedure for studying salt-dependence of DNA-protein affinities; 2) elution from operator-containing DNA was delayed (average elution = 1000mM salt), demonstrating a feasibility of site-specific DNA-affinity chromatography, if one provides a sufficiently favorable ratio of specific to non-specific DNA binding sites; 3) repressor eluted from operator-containing DNA over a very broad salt range, which may represent chromatography-generated repressor heterogeneity.
为测试位点特异性DNA亲和色谱的可行性,将大肠杆菌乳糖阻遏物与含操纵基因的DNA柱结合,并同时与不含操纵基因的DNA柱结合。盐梯度洗脱显示:1)从不含操纵基因的DNA上洗脱接近250mM KCl或NaCl;对该结果的解释表明该方法对于研究DNA-蛋白质亲和力的盐依赖性很有用;2)从含操纵基因的DNA上洗脱延迟(平均洗脱盐浓度 = 1000mM),这表明如果提供足够有利的特异性与非特异性DNA结合位点比例,位点特异性DNA亲和色谱是可行的;3)阻遏物从含操纵基因的DNA上在非常宽的盐浓度范围内洗脱,这可能代表色谱产生的阻遏物异质性。
