Custom Premix Selecting "Custom Premix" option means that all of the beads you have chosen will be premixed in manufacturing before the kit is sent to you.
The S•Tag™ Thrombin Purification Kit is designed for rapid affinity purification of S•Tag fusion proteins that also contain a sequence for thrombin cleavage. The S-protein Agarose specifically retains S•Tag fusion proteins. When fusion proteins are expressed from vectors that also encode a thrombin cleavage site (LVPR/GS) between the standard 15-amino acid S•Tag sequence (KETAAAKFERQHMDS) and the cloning region, thrombin digestion can release the target protein from the S-protein Agarose. This kit uses biotinylated thrombin to enable simple and specific thrombin removal with Streptavidin-Agarose, after the digestion step.
