FAQs

Question 1: How does general tubulin buffer differ from G-PEM buffer?


Answer 1: Basically, these buffers are the same except that G-PEM contains 1mM GTP to support tubulin polymerization. General tubulin buffer ((Cat. #BST01) and PEM buffer typically contain 80 mM PIPES, 2 mM MgCl2, 0.5 mM EGTA pH 7.0. Both buffers should be supplemented with 1 mM GTP (hence, the &ldquo, G&rdquo, in G-PEM buffer).



Question 2: Is glycerol necessary for the maintenance of biologically-active tubulin?


Answer 2: Glycerol is often added to a final concentration of 5 - 10% to enhance polymerization, however, glycerol is not necessary for the maintenance of biologically active tubulin.

Material
General tubulin buffer (PEM).Contains 80 mM PIPES pH 6.9, 2 mM MgCl2 and 0.5 mM EGTA. Used as a tubulin working buffer in the form of G-PEM (i.e. PEM plus 1 mM GTP (Cat.# BST06)) or a tubulin polymerization buffer in the form of glycerol containing G-PEM (PEM plus 1 mM GTP (Cat. # BST06) and e.g. 5% glycerol (see Cat. # BST05)).
