Bradford Analysis of Protease Degradation

The general procedure today was taken from Dr. Hartings's notebook.

All samples will be incubated in eppendorf tubes, which will be placed in the 37°C water bath on the shaker. Samples should all contain the same concentration of materials.

You should make samples for measurements at 10 minutes, 15 minutes, 30 minutes, 45 minutes, 1 hr, 1.5 hr, 2 hr. (Note, this is for the first time you do this. As you get better, I will expect you to get more measurements done).

  1. Protease Prep
    1. Place the 1mL of Tris/CaCl2 buffer in the pre-measured protease sample (1.18 mg proteinase K) and record the concentration (4.07·10-5 M proteinase K)
  2. Sample Prep
    1. To a fiber sample tube (that has been centrifuge for 10 minutes at 300 RPM and had the supernatant removed) add the appropriate amounts of buffer and protease (0.02457 mL proteinase K, 0.9754 Buffer Solution)
      1. The total volume should be 1mL
      2. The final protease concentration should be 1uM
      3. Vortex the sample to disperse the fibers
  3. Blank Prep (you will have one blank to match each sample)
    1. To a clean eppendorf tube add the appropriate amounts of buffer and protease (0.02457 mL proteinase K, 0.9754 Buffer Solution).
      1. The total volume should be 1mL
      2. The final protease concentration should be 1uM
  4. Incubate Sample and Blanks
    1. Place the tubes (for both the Blanks and Samples) in the shaker with the 37°C water bath
  5. Measurement
    1. Remove the tubes (the sample and a corresponding blank) from the water bath at the appropriate time
    2. For the case of a sample with fibers, centrifuge the sample for 1 min to pull any fibers to the bottom of the tube
    3. To a plastic cuvette add
      1. 600 uL of pre-mixed Bradford dilution
      2. 750 uL of sample
      3. 1650 uL of buffer
    4. Record the UV-Vis spectrum from 400-800 nm
  6. Using the Bradford standardization curve and your data from the 0 fiber sample, determine the concentration of released protein in your solution.


Data

The absorbance versus time of the spectra shows variation. It is still unclear as to what this variation is due to.
