Can I obtain protein from inclusion bodies with CelLytic B?
1 answer-
If the protein is found in inclusion bodies, you need to use an additional reagent, Product No. C5236, CelLytic IB to solubilize the proteins from the inclusion bodies. CelLytic B is used to isolate the inclusion bodies from the bacteria. CelLytic IB, Product No. C5236 can then be used to solubilize the proteins from the inclusion bodies.

Can I use CelLytic B for eukaryotic cells?
1 answer-
CelLytic B was optimized for bacterial cells. It may lyse some mammalian cells. CelLytic B 10X is a better choice for the lysis of yeast and mammalian cells due to the increased detergent concentration.

Can I concentrate my sample that was made using CelLytic B?
1 answer-
If concentrating a sample, be aware that concentration using filter concentrators may increase the detergent concentration significantly and cause issues in downstream applications. heoretically, ways to get around this are TCA precipitation, or diluting the extract below the CMC prior to concentration. This would be at least a 1/5 dilution, based on the following reference: Saito, S., and Tsuchiya, T., Characteristics of n-octyl beta-D-thioglucopyranoside, a new non-ionic detergent useful for membrane biochemistry. Biochem. J., 222(3), 829-832, 1984.

What bacterial cells can be used with CelLytic B?
1 answer-
CelLytic B Reagent by itself (no lysozyme or benzonase) was optimized for E. coli strain BL21. It also works with other common E. coli strains such as DH5?, JM109, and HB 101. The CelLytic B Reagent may be used on other similar bacterial cells. The CelLytic B Plus Kit is compatible with many more difficult to lyse Gram positive bacteria such as Bacillus and Streptococcus.

Can I use the CelLytic™ B cell lysate in an activity assay?
1 answer-
CelLytic B contains a zwitterionic detergent so the protein is active and can be used in protein activity assays.

Can I use CelLytic B with the maltose binding protein system (MBP System)?
1 answer-
CelLytic B cannot be used with the MBP system. We have used this in the maltose binding protein system, and know that it will NOT work in this system, since any and all detergents will destroy binding of protein to the resin.

What is the difference between CelLytic B Plus Kits, Products CB0050 and CB0500?
1 answer-
Product No. CB0050 and CB0500 provide reagents sufficient for processing 5 g or 50 g of cell paste, respectively. Fewer grams of cell paste can be processed if proteins are to be extracted from inclusion bodies.

When using the CelLytic™ B lysis reagent, do I need to make a dilution prior to measuring protein by Bradford assay?
1 answer-
When using the CelLytic™ B lysis reagent (B7435, B7310, C8740, and contained in kits CB0050 and CB0500), it is best to use a 1:10 dilution in order to reduce the risk of interference with the Bradford Reagent. A 1:20 dilution would be even better, as long as the protein level remains within the standard curve.

What is the difference between CelLytic B (Product Nos. B7435, B7310, C8740) and CelLytic B Plus (Product Nos. CB0050 and CB0500)?
1 answer-
CelLytic B Plus contains CelLytic B, Product No. B7435 as well as lysozyme, benzonase, and a protease inhibitor cocktail for a complete reagent for cell lysates for protein isolation.
