SPA Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single non-glycosylated polypeptide chain fused with 6×His tag at C-terminus. SPA is comprised of 5 IgG-binding domains E-D-A-B-C aligned in series containing 306 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 34.7kDa containing little or no carbohydrate. Cell wall binding region, cell membrane binding region and albumin binding region were removed to ensure the highest specific IgG binding.
Protein A is a cell wall component produced by several strains of Staphylococcus aureus. The recombinant Protein A is genetically engineered protein and holds 5 IgG-binding regions of protein A. Recombinant Protein A functions basically the same as native Protein A and is perfect for purification of polyclonal or monoclonal IgG antibodies. Protein A binds to human IgG1, IgG2 and IgG4, mouse IgG2a, IgG2b and IgG3 and rat IgG2c. Protein A also binds to total IgG from rabbit, pig, dog, cat, and guinea pig.
It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized SPA in sterile 18MΩ-cm H2O not less than 0.1mg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.
