We Solved the Paradox!
High Salt Conditions Now Boost,
Not Hinder, DNA Clearing

The Salt & Nuclease Paradox: As salt concentration increases, conditions for DNA clearance improve, but enzyme function decreases. This “paradox” is resolved by SAN HQ GMP because its ability to clear DNA from viral vectors increases as salt concentration rises.

SAN HQ GMP performs best when conditions are optimal for clearing DNA. The results are maximum yield, purity, overall product quality, simplified workflow, reduced costs, and improved efficiency of DNA removal from your lysates in a single step.

The graph explains the Salt and Nuclease Paradox
At low, or no, salt concentrations, chromatin sticks to vectors causing aggregates that prevent enzymes from clearing DNA efficiently. At high salt concentrations, aggregates dissolve, so enzymes can clear DNA efficiently, minimizing residual DNA and maximizing yield. But high salt reduces the function of Benzonase and Denarase from ca. 50% at 150mM salt to near 0% at salt levels where DNA is most accessible for clearing.

Advantages of increased salt levels using SAN HQ GMP
Optimized Residual DNA Removal

In high salt conditions, DNA can detach from viral capsids. However, conventional nucleases that digest this residual DNA struggle in such environments. The salt-tolerant SAN HQ GMP nuclease, though, maintains its functionality, paving the way for more effective DNA removal and superior alignment with regulatory standards.

Boosted AAV Vector Purification

Adeno-associated viruses (AAVs) — non-enveloped viral vectors — have a tendency to cluster because of their capsids' sticky nature. High salt levels can diminish these clusters, streamlining the purification process. In these conditions, SAN HQ GMP operates proficiently, ensuring a more successful purification outcome.

Advantages of minimized residual DNA in lysate

Reducing residual DNA in your lysate is crucial for both process efficiency and product yield. With SAN HQ GMP, you can achieve lower levels of residual DNA, resulting in multiple benefits for your operation.

Adherence to Regulatory Compliance

Regulatory bodies such as the FDA impose strict limits on residual DNA in gene therapy products. SAN HQ GMP can aid in effectively digesting such DNA, assisting manufacturers in adhering to these regulations and sidestepping potential regulatory challenges.
