GFP Purification 1. GFP bacteria cells are broken open using a detergent. 2. The cell contents are washed with a high-salt binding buffer. The charged ions in the salt repel the ions on the exterior of the GFP protein which results in the protein turning itself inside out. 3. The exposed GFP binds to the resin beads in the column.
