The MagZ™ System: His-Tagged Protein Purification without
Hemoglobin Contamination

This novel protein purification system opens up the possibilities for the
expression, purification and functional analysis of His-tagged proteins
expressed in rabbit reticulocyte-based protein expression systems. The
MagZ™ Protein Purification System offers a unique advantage over
nickel-based systems by specifically purifying polyhistidine-tagged
(His-tagged) proteins from rabbit reticulocyte lysate without
co-purification of hemoglobin. Thus, the proteins purified using the
MagZ™ System could be used for several downstream applications, which
are often limited by the presence of hemoglobin in the eluted samples
using other immobilized metal ion affinity chromatography (IMAC)
methods.
