The AllPrep Fungal Protein Kit makes isolating proteins and nucleic acids easy. The user-friendly system incorporates both a bead beating method and silica spin columns to capture DNA, RNA and proteins in a streamlined process. DNA and RNA is ready for qPCR, RT-PCR and next-generation sequencing, while protein is ready for 1D SDS-PAGE and mass spectrometry following in-gel trypsin digestion. Some applications, including 2D SDS-PAGE and solution phase proteolytic digestion for mass spectrometry, may require an additional detergent removal step following protein elution.

Beginning with mechanical lysis of cultured fungal cells using 0.5 mm glass bead tubes, nucleic acids and proteins are solubilized and mixed with a binding solution. DNA is bound to the first spin column and the flow-through is combined with a solution to bind the total RNA on a second spin column. The final flow-through captures protein. Each of the individual spin columns is then washed and the immobilized analyte is eluted.

The AllPrep Fungal Protein Kit was previously sold by MO BIO under the same name.
