Specific, fast and gentle purification of His-tagged proteins. The preferred method for purifying recombinant His-tagged proteins is immobilized metal affinity chromatography (IMAC). Traditionally, chelating chromatography resins are charged with either nickel or cobalt ions that coordinate with the histidine side chains in the 6xHis-tag. HisPur Cobalt Resin is a tetradentate chelating resin charged with cobalt that binds His-tagged proteins with high specificity and releases them under lower imidazole concentrations than required with nickel resins (see Figure). HisPur Cobalt Resin can be used to obtain high-purity proteins with no metal contamination.
Ordering Information
Highlights: • High purity – obtain pure protein without optimizing imidazole washing conditions • Specificity – cobalt:chelate binding core binds fewer contaminants, resulting in lower background than nickel (see Table) • Low metal leaching – no metal contamination in eluted sample • Versatility – purify proteins under native or denaturing conditions; compatible with cell lysis reagents and a variety of buffer additives • Flexibility – available as bulk resin or predispensed columns compatible with both spin and gravity-flow formats • Cost effective – reuse or discard • Superior – performs better than other commercially available IMAC Resins (see Figure)

Thermo Scientific HisPur Cobalt Resin outperforms other IMAC resins. E. coli lysates containing overexpressed His-tagged green fluorescent protein (GFP), β-galactosidase or Protein L were applied to 200 μl bed volumes of HisPur Cobalt Resin and several competing cobalt and nickel resins. The first elution fraction for each IMAC resin was analyzed by SDS-PAGE and protein purity determined. Gel lanes were normalized to equivalent volume. Lane 1 = HisPur Cobalt Resin, Lane 2 = supplier C’s cobalt resin, Lane 3 = supplier S’s cobalt resin, Lane 4 = supplier G’s nickel resin, Lane 5 = supplier Q’s nickel resin, Lane 6 = Ni2+-IDA resin and Lane L = lysate load.
The HisPur Chromatography Cartridges are convenient, reliable and ready-to-use pre-packed devices for the isolation of proteins in solution and purification of His-tagged fusion proteins. The HisPur Cartridges are compatible with automated LC instrumentation, such as the ÄKTÄ™ and BioLogic Systems, and adapt to manual syringe processing.

Thermo Scientific HisPur Cobalt Resin is specific for His-tagged proteins and allows mild, efficient elutions. Bacterial lysate (1.0 mg total protein) was applied to a 200 μl bed volume of HisPur Cobalt Resin in a spin column. Gel lanes were normalized to equivalent volume. M = Molecular Weight Markers (Product # 26691), L = lysate load and F = flow-through.
Thermo Scientific HisPur Cobalt Resin yields more His-tagged protein and higher purity than other Co2+ and Ni2+ IMAC Resins. His-GFP
