A uniform procedure for the purification of CDK7/CycH/MAT1, CDK8/CycC and CDK9/CycT1

<p>We have established a uniform procedure for the expression and purification of the cyclin-dependent kinases CDK7/CycH/MAT1, CDK8/CycC and CDK9/CycT1. We attach a His<sub>6</sub>-tag to one of the subunits of each complex and then co-express it together with the other subunits in...

description <p>We have established a uniform procedure for the expression and purification of the cyclin-dependent kinases CDK7/CycH/MAT1, CDK8/CycC and CDK9/CycT1. We attach a His<sub>6</sub>-tag to one of the subunits of each complex and then co-express it together with the other subunits in <it>Spodoptera frugiperda</it> insect cells. The CDK complexes are subsequently purified by Ni<sup>2+</sup>-NTA and Mono S chromatography. This approach generates large amounts of active recombinant kinases that are devoid of contaminating kinase activities. Importantly, the properties of these recombinant kinases are similar to their natural counterparts (Pinhero <it>et al</it>. 2004, Eur J Biochem 271:1004-14). Our protocol provides a novel systematic approach for the purification of these three (and possibly other) recombinant CDKs.
