In vitro Methanol Dehydrogenase assay using E. coli raw extract

Back to Protocols


  • Inoculate a preculture LB media containing the appropriate antibiotic and incubate at 37 °C overnight shaking at 220 rpm.

  • Inoculate a mainculture (50 ml) and induce protein expression by adding IPTG to a final concentration of 1 mM at an OD600 of 0.4- 1.0

  • Incubate at 37 °C for 3 hours

  • Harvest the culture by centrifugation at 8000 x g for 5 minutes

  • Resuspend the cell pellet in 1 ml 50 mM K2HPO4 buffer (pH 7.4)

  • Add glass beads (0.1mm diameter) and disrupt the cells by shaking for 12 minutes

  • Centrifugation at 16000 x g for 5 minutes

  • Keep the soluble fraction for the assay

  • Perform the enzyme assay in a total volume of 1 ml

  • Add preheated 50 mM K2HPO4 buffer (pH 7.4) containing 5 mM MgSO4

  • Add 50 µl of soluble fraction

  • Add 1 M methanol

  • Add 200 µM NAD+

  • Detect the absorption at 340 nm

In vitro Methanol Dehydrogenase assay using purified NAD+ dependent Methanol Dehydrogenase

Back to Protocols


  • Perform the enzyme assay in a total volume of 1 ml

  • Add preheated 50 mM K2HPO4 buffer (pH 7.4) containing 5 mM MgSO4

  • Add 50 ul of soluble fraction

  • Add 1 M methanol

  • Add 500 uM NAD+

  • Detect the absorption at 340 nm
