Protein Isolation and Analysis » Biotin-Protein L

Biotin-Protein L

Protein L is a cell surface protein from Peptostreptoccocus magnus that binds to the variable light chains (kappa chain) of immunoglobulins without interfering with antigen binding. In contrast to IgG-binding proteins, such as protein A and protein G, protein L can be used for the detection and purification of mammalian kappa light chain antibodies of all classes. Biotin-Protein L, which is produced by covalently linking biotin to protein L, can be used in immunodetections, such as immunoblotting (western or dot blot), ELISA, and immunohistochemistry.

Properties
Reconstitution Reconstitute the lyophilized product with deionized water (or equivalent) to the final concentration of 1.0 mg/ml.
Concentration 1 mg/ml, lyophilized with PBS, pH 7.4, containing 1% BSA and 0.02% sodium azide.
Storage The product is stable in lyophilized form if stored at -20°C or below. The reconstituted product can be stored for 2-3 weeks at 2-8°C. For long term storage, aliquot and store at -20°C or below. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing cycles.

Applications
Working concentrations for specific applications should be determined by titration assay. The chart below may serve as a useful guideline, but primary antibody, temperature, incubation time, the amount of antigen, and the sensitivity of the detection methods can all affect the ideal working concentration.
Dot blot: 1:2,000-1:20,000
Western blot: 1:2,000-1:20,000
ELISA: 1:20,000-1:100,000
Other: user-optimized
