Recombinant Protein-A used also in Protein A beads (P9100-75) is a genetically engineered form of Protein-A derived from Staphylococcus aureus. Non-essential regions have been modified while leaving the IgG binding sites intact. Protein A is been used extensively used for the isolation of IgG from several species of mammals. The affinity of Protein A to IgG's is different between species and IgG subclasses within a given species. A major known limitation of protein A is its weak binding to Mouse IgG1– a major immunoglobulin subclass in Mice. Despite its variable binding characteristics, Protein A is a popular choice for both antibodies binding in various assays and when coupled to beads, for Immunoprecipitation of -antigen complexes. Protein A binds specifically the Fc region of immunoglobulins leaving the Fab region free for binding the antigen. Hence, Protein A is extremely useful for isolating of immune complexes.
