Pipetting 1 ml of H2O on top of the running gel prevented coves between the entire running and stacking gel. The comb was stuck into the chamber to maintain the right gel depth. After polymerization, the remaining H2O was removed and the 12 % stacking gel (Table 1) followed. To create sample pockets a comb was inserted centrally. If the stacking gel was also polymerized, 1 x running buffer (Table 1) was used to run the Double Gel System via the SDS gel. After loading the generated pockets with the samples, the gel was run for 1:10 1:20 h at 150 V.</p>

Protocols / Precipitating Bacteria for MS Analysis

If you have to deal with heavy metals, choose thicker nitril gloves. Be aware that washing by warm water increases the gloves permeability and gloves only protect you temporarily!.

Material:
incubator
Isosmotic bufferPrepare 2 l,
50 mM Tris-HCl,
10 mM EDTA, pH8.

Protocol:

After induction of heterologous T4MBP expression, bacterial cell cultures were centrifuged for 15 min at 4500 x g and 4 °C. While the supernatant was decanted, the precipitated bacteria were dissolved in 20 ml isosmotic buffer. According to the harm of heavy metals, all medium supernatants were stored and had to be picked up by professional disposal service. Starting with the dissolving the precipitate, the washing is repeated four more times. Due to the heavy metals, the supernatants obtained here had to be stored also. As the last step, precipitated bacteria were dissolved in 1 ml H20 and dried for 2 d at 60 °C. For latter MS, the reaction tube´s dry-weight before and after loading the aqueous bacteria solution had to be determined.
