Question TAP-TAG help

Hey, i'm currently trying to do tap-tag purification on 2 proteins and seem to be somewhat struggling a little. Everything is fine until TEV cleavage. Upto now i've been incubating 10 units of TEV in 30ul TEV buffer for 5-10ul packed beads / mg extracted protein. overnight at 4 degrees... classic, yet it isn't as efficient as it should be.

From the aliquotes it looks like cleavage is occuring, although at a low rate, but nothing is recovered in the supernatant...

If anyone has had to deal with TEV cleavage, or has any technical advice, give me your best shot please

Default Re: TAP-TAG help

forget it.. i found a solution.
Just tried cleavage at room temp and it worked (plus my proteins didn't degrade)... Now that just means i'm not recovering proteins because they stick to the beads in a non specific manner... blablabla
