Abstract
This protocol details an optimized Endo H and PNGase F digestion assay that produces samples that can be run with the JESS Automated Western Blot System.
Materials
10X Glycoprotein Denaturing Buffer (NEB, Catalog# B0701S)
10X GlycoBuffer 3 (NEB, Catalog# B0701S)
10X GlycoBuffer 2 (NEB, Catalog# B0701S)
10% NP-40 (NEB, Catalog# B0701S)
EndoH (NEB, Catalog# P0703S)
PNGase F (NEB, Catalog# P0704S)

10K Amicon Ultra Centrifugal Filter (Millipore, UFC5010BK)
Glycoprotein Denaturation
Glycoprotein Denaturation
In an eppendorf tube, add Amount40 µg protein, Amount2 µL 10X Glycoprotein Denaturing Buffer, and water for a total reaction volume of Amount20 µL . Mix well.

Denature glycoprotein by heating reaction at Temperature100 °C for Duration00:10:00 .

10m
Split reaction volume into 2 eppendorf tubes with 10 uL in each tube. One tube will be used for the EndoH reaction, while the other will be used for the PNGaseF reaction.
Endo H
Endo H
Add the following to one reaction tube from step 3: Amount2 µL 10X GlycoBuffer 3, Amount2 µL Endo H, Amount6 µL water. Total volume will be Amount20 µL .

Mix gently.
Incubate reaction at Temperature37 °C for Duration01:00:00

PNGase F
PNGase F
Add the following to the second reaction tube from step 3: Amount2 µL 10X GlycoBuffer 2, Amount2 µL NP-40, Amount6 µL water, Amount1 µL PNGaseF. Total volume will be Amount21 µL .

Mix gently.
Incubate reaction at Temperature37 °C for Duration01:00:00 .

Desalting and Washing for JESS Automated Western Blot System (Bio-Techne) preparation
Add Amount480 µL and Amount479 µL of 0.1X Sample Buffer (Bio-Techne) to the Endo H and PNGaseF reaction tubes respectively to make the final volume Amount500 µL .

Add all Amount500 µL of each reaction to a 10K Amicon Ultra Centrifugal Filter

Spin at Centrifigation14000 x g for Duration00:20:00 . You will recover a final volume ofAmount20 µL , and the protein concentration recovered will be ~Concentration1 mg/mL .
