A novel chromatographic system introduced here internally generates a concentration gradient of ammonium sulfate (AS) through a long separation channel under a centrifugal force field. Protein samples are exposed to a gradually increasing AS concentration and precipitated along the channel. Then, chromatographic elution is initiated by gradually decreasing the AS concentration in the gradient which causes the proteins to repeat dissolution and precipitation through the channel. Consequently, they are eluted out in the order of their solubility in the AS solution. The separation column consists of a pair of disks equipped with mutually mirror-imaged spiral grooves. A dialysis membrane is sandwiched between the disks to form two identical channels partitioned by the membrane. The disk assembly is mounted on the sealless continuous-flow centrifuge. When a concentrated AS solution is eluted through one channel and water through the other channel in an opposite direction, an exponential AS gradient is formed through the water channel. A series of basic experiments was performed to study the rates of AS transfer and osmosis through the membrane, and the operational parameters including elution time, revolution speed, inclination of gradient, and sample size were optimized using stable protein samples. Preliminary applications were successful in purification of monoclonal antibody from cell culture supernatant and an affinity separation of recombinant ketosteroid isomerase from a crude Escherichia coli lysate.  相似文献

A preparative modification of the centrifugal precipitation chromatography (CPC) is described. The sample-loading capacity is improved in the present system by the use of convoluted tubing containing dialysis tubing instead of a dialysis membrane placed between a pair of disks equipped with mirror-imaged spiral grooves as in the original design. The system uses, basically, the same principle of as the original CPC, in that a concentration gradient of precipitant is generated under a centrifugal force field. The protein sample injected into the CPC column is exposed to an increasing concentration of the precipitant where it precipitates at various portions of the column according to its solubility. The gradient is then gradually lowered so that the sample undergoes dissolution and precipitation many times within the column; the proteins finally elute from the column according to their solubilities. A basic study was performed using this machine to separate human albumin and 3-globulin using ammonium sulfate (AS) as precipitant. Preliminary results indicate that this method can separate 500 mg of protein.  相似文献

Single-strand DNA binding protein (SSB) from Escherichia coli lysate was purified by counter-current chromatography (CCC) using the ammonium sulfate precipitation method in a coiled column. About 5 ml of E. coli lysate was separated by CCC using a polymer phase system composed of 16% (w/w) polyethylene glycol (PEG) 1000 and 17% (w/w) ammonium sulfate aqueous polymer two-phase solvent system. The precipitation of proteins in the lysate took place in the CCC column, and the SSB protein was eluted in the fraction 51-56. Many other impurities were either eluted immediately after the solvent front or precipitated in the column. The identities of the proteins in the fractions and in the precipitate were confirmed by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis with Coomassie Brilliant Blue staining.  相似文献

To examine the properties of androphilic proteins in human benign prostatic hypertrophy, the binding capacity and affinity of the proteins were determined after acetone-treatment, ammonium sulfate precipitation and chromatographies of DEAE and Sephadex G-200. Androphilic proteins in the extract of acetone-dried cytosol from the hypertrophic human prostate was precipitated at 30-50% saturation of ammonium sulfate. The binding of this fraction to dihydrotestosterone and testosterone was high affinity, but the binidng to estradiol-17 beta was the one of non-specific. Androphilic proteins in the 30-50% fraction were eluted from DEAE-cellulose column by buffer containing 0.05 M KCL. On Sephadex G-200 chromatography of 30-50% fraction, the androphilic proteins were observed in three peaks; one was eluted in the void volume and other two were eluted at the sites of IgG and albumin. The amount and ratio of proteins eluted in the void volume and the site of IgG from Sephadex G-200 column were variable in individual tissue samples. The chromatographic behavior of the 30-50% fraction in Sephadex G-200 was not changed significantly by introducing 0.4 M KCl in the system. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis was applied for further separation of the proteins.  相似文献

In general, proteins bind to affinity or ion-exchange columns at low salt concentrations, and the bound proteins are eluted by raising the salt concentration, changing the solvent pH, or adding competing ligands. Blue-Sepharose is often used to remove bovine serum albumin (BSA) from samples, but when we applied BSA to Blue-Sepharose in 20 mM phosphate, pH 7.0, 50%-60% of the protein flowed through the column; however, complete binding of BSA was achieved by the addition of 2 M ammonium sulfate (AS) to the column equilibration buffer and the sample. The bound protein was eluted by decreasing the AS concentration or by adding 1 M NaCl or arginine. AS at high concentrations resulted in binding of BSA even to an ion-exchange column, Q-Sepharose, at pH 7.0. Thus, although moderate salt concentrations elute proteins from Blue-Sepharose or ion-exchange columns, proteins can be bound to these columns under extreme salting-out conditions. Similar enhanced binding of proteins by AS was observed with an ATP-affinity column.  相似文献

Butyl-Toyopearl 650, a butyl derivative of Toyopearl HW-65, was synthesized for use in hydrophobic chromatography. Water-soluble enzyme proteins were adsorbed on butyl-Toyopearl 650 in the presence of ammonium sulfate and eluted easily in the absence of the salt. Cytochrome c, myoglobin, and chymotrypsinogen A were successfully separated on a butyl-Toyopearl 650 column in order of their individual hydrophobicity by decreasing the concentration of ammonium sulfate contained in the buffer eluant. Based on these results, the use of butyl-Toyopearl 650 is demonstrated for the hydrophobic separation of water-soluble enzyme proteins.  相似文献

The transformed glucocorticoid receptor (GR) from rat liver precipitated at 30% saturation of ammonium sulfate and sedimented at 4.3 S on glycerol gradient centrifugation, whereas the nontransformed GR precipitated at higher concentrations of ammonium sulfate (40-50% saturation) and sedimented at 8.6 S on a gradient. Sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis showed that heat shock protein 90 (hsp 90) precipitated at 40-50% saturation of ammonium sulfate. Moreover, hsp 90 and the nontransformed GR were eluted from DEAE high performance ion-exchange chromatography at similar salt concentrations (0.22-0.23 M NaCl), whereas the transformed GR was eluted at 0.1 M NaCl. Therefore, hsp 90 seems to be responsible for the surface charge characteristics of the nontransformed GR.  相似文献

Leucogenenol a heterocyclic enolic thymothyroid hormone (MW 383) whose concentration in the serum regulates the rate at which already committed cells of the bone marrow develop into functional cells, was found to be associated in the thymus with a carrier protein. The carrier protein for leucogenenol is not precipitated by heating to 80° but following this treatment leucogenenol is precipitated in association with proteins precipitated by acetone and then by saturated ammonium sulfate. On chromatography on Sephacryl G-200 it was found that leucogenenol was associated with proteins of MW approximately 38,000. Leucogenenol is not eluted from the chromatographic column if it is not associated with its carrier proteins. It is suggested that other hormones such as those associated with the reproductive cycle or compounds that result from tissue damage induce the liberation of leucogenenol from its carrier protein in the thymus to the circulation where it is associated as previously described, with a protein of approximately MW 300,000.  相似文献

1. The immune precipitate formed by antipneumococcus horse serum and the specific polysaccharide is not hydrolyzed by trypsin as is the diphtheria toxin-antitoxin complex, and purified pneumococcus antibody cannot be isolated by the method used for the isolation and crystallization of diphtheria antitoxin. 2. Type I pneumococcus antibody, completely precipitable by Type I polysaccharide, may be obtained from immune horse serum globulin by precipitation of the inert proteins with acid potassium phthalate. 3. The antibody obtained in this way may be fractionated by precipitation with ammonium sulfate into three main parts. One is insoluble in neutral salts but soluble from pH 4.5 to 3.0 and from pH 9.5 to 10.5. This is the largest fraction. A second fraction is soluble in 0.05 to 0.2 saturated ammonium sulfate and the third fraction is soluble in 0.2 saturated ammonium sulfate and precipitated by 0.35 saturated ammonium sulfate. The second fraction can be further separated by precipitation with 0.17 saturated ammonium sulfate to yield a small amount of protein which is soluble in 0.17 saturated ammonium sulfate but insoluble in 0.25 saturated ammonium sulfate. This fraction crystallizes in poorly formed, rounded rosettes. 4. The crystallization does not improve the purity of the antibody and is accompanied by the formation of an insoluble protein as in the case of diphtheria antitoxin. 5. None of the fractions obtained is even approximately homogeneous as determined by solubility measurements. 6. Purified antibody has also been obtained by dissociating the antigen-antibody complex. 7. The protective value of the fractions is quite different; that of the dissociated antibody being the highest and that of the insoluble fraction, the lowest. 8. All the fractions are immunologically specific since they do not precipitate with Type II polysaccharide nor protect against Type II pneumococci. 9. All the fractions give a positive precipitin reaction with antihorse rabbit serum. The dissociated antibody gives the least reaction. 10. Comparison of the various fractions, either by their solubility in salt solution or through immunological reactions, indicates that there are a large number of proteins present in immune horse serum, all of which precipitate with the specific polysaccharide but which have very different protective values, different reactions with antihorse rabbit serum, and different solubility in salt solutions.  相似文献

Proteins can be precipitated onto the surface of unsubstituted agarose at an ammonium sulfate concentration about 10% lower than needed for precipitation out of solution. The protein is fractionally redissolved by developing agarose columns with a linear, decreasing gradient of ammonium sulfate. The method is characterized by high reproducibility, good purification factors and high recovery of enzymatic activity. As an example the method is applied to the purification of aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases (E.C. 6.1.1.-) specific for phenylalanine, isoleucine and valine.  相似文献

Glucocerebrosidase from human skin fibroblasts was purified more than 2300-fold to apparent homogeneity with an overall yield of 39% using taurocholate extraction, ammonium sulfate fractionation, and high-performance hydrophobic interaction and gel permeation column chromatography. This relatively high yield is attributed to two modifications from previously published procedures: (i) the elimination of a butanol delipidation step that resulted in substantial loss of enzyme activity; and (ii) the use of 2% (w/v) sodium taurocholate instead of 1-2% sodium cholate that resulted in more than 90% solubilization of total membrane-bound enzyme activity. Confluent monolayers of human cultured skin fibroblasts (approximately 3.6 x 10(8) cells) were harvested from 10 roller bottles. Glucocerebrosidase in the cell pellet was solubilized with 2% (w/v) sodium taurocholate, fractionated in 14% ammonium sulfate, and applied to a high-performance hydrophobic interaction phenyl-5PW column. After an ammonium sulfate descending linear gradient step, glucocerebrosidase was eluted from the column at 4% cholate concentration using a 0-5% linear cholate gradient. There was a 36-fold purification and 80% recovery. In the subsequent step, concentrated glucocerebrosidase fractions from the phenyl column were injected into two Bio-Sil TSK-250 gel permeation columns joined in series. Glucocerebrosidase peak activity was eluted at 263 ml corresponding to Mr 76,000. There was an 18-fold purification and 78% recovery. The enzyme preparation was then recycled through the phenyl-5PW column in order to remove a remaining contaminant.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

Arginine is effective in suppressing aggregation of proteins and may be beneficial to be included during purification processes. We have shown that arginine reduces non-specific protein binding in gel permeation chromatography and facilitates elution of antibodies from Protein-A columns. Here we have examined the effects of arginine on binding and elution of the proteins during hydrophobic interaction (HIC) and ion- exchange chromatographies (IEC) using recombinant monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) and human interleukin-6. In the case of HIC, the proteins were bound to a phenyl-Sepharose column in the presence of ammonium sulfate (AS) with or without arginine and eluted with a descending concentration of AS. While use of 1 M AS in the loading buffer resulted in complete binding of the mAb, inclusion of 1 M arginine in loading and equilibration buffer, only when using low-substituted phenyl-Sepharose, resulted in weaker binding of the proteins. While decreasing AS concentration to 0.75 M resulted in partial elution of the mAB, elution was facilitated with inclusion of 0.5-1 M arginine. In the case of IEC, arginine was included in the loading samples. Inclusion of arginine during binding to the IEC columns resulted in a greater recovery and less aggregation even when elution was done in the absence of arginine. These results indicate that arginine enhances elution of proteins bound to the resin, suggesting its effectiveness as a solvent for elution in HIC and IEC.  相似文献

Summary The myxomycete Physarum polycephalum has been reported to produce an extracellular ribonuclease. A quick procedure is described for the isolation and purification of the ribonuclease from the culture supernatant. It involves an initial concentration of the culture supernatant by slow freezing, followed by ammonium sulfate precipitation. The enzyme was adsorbed onto DEAE-cellulose and eluted with a sodium chloride gradient.  相似文献

Based on a detailed study of the solubility of serum albumin, a procedure for its purification by selective ammonium sulphate precipitation has been developed. Using buffalo serum, first extraneous proteins were precipitated by making the serum 2.26 M saturated with ammonium sulphate at pH 7.0 and then albumin was precipitated from the supernatant at 1.9 M ammonium sulphate concentration at pH 4.2. The overall yield of serum albumin thus isolated was about 55% with a purity of 97%. The protein preparation gave a single nearly symmetrical peak on Sephadex G-100 column and virtually a single band on polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence and absence of SDS. Buffalo serum albumin has a molecular weight of 69,000 Da. The hydrodynamic properties such as Stoke's radius (3.70 nm), diffusion coefficient (6.03 X 10(-7) cm2/s) and frictional ratio (1.36) obtained by analytical gel chromatography, bilirubin binding characteristics and its interaction with anti-bovine serum albumin antiserum suggest that buffalo serum albumin is very similar to BSA in its molecular properties.  相似文献

A quantitative comparison was made on the fractionation of pepsin-digested horse antivenoms by ammonium sulfate (AS) fractional precipitation and ion-exchange chromatography on Q-Sepharose. In the precipitation process, pepsin digested horse anti-Naja kaouthia serum was precipitated by 30% saturated AS followed by 50% saturated AS. The recovery of antibody activity [as measured by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) against the cobra postsynaptic neurotoxin 3] from the 30–50% saturated AS precipitate was 53% with a 1.93-fold purification. For the chromatographic process, the behavior of the horse antitoxin antibody and its F(ab′)2 fragments was first studied. The pepsin digested horse serum was then desalted on a Bio-gel P-2 column followed by chromatography on Q-Sepharose using a linear gradient (20 mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.0 containing 0.0 to 0.5 M NaCl). A peak containing primarily the F(ab′)2 antibody could be obtained. This peak constituted 73% of the total antivenom activity with 2.08-fold purification. The total recovery of antibody activity by the chromatographic process was 90%. The yield of antibody activity was about 2-fold higher than that reported previously with other fractionation procedures. The implications of these results for the refining of horse therapeutic antivenoms are discussed.  相似文献

Isolation of phosphatidyl-ethanolamine-binding protein-1 (PEBP-1) from bovine brain was described almost three decades ago but it required a large number of steps to reach high purity. After the fractionation of bovine testis proteins by ammonium sulfate precipitation we found that PEBP-1, detected by Western blotting, was among the very few proteins still soluble at 80% ammonium sulfate saturation (3.2M). This soluble fraction (S80) was directly loaded onto a phenyl sepharose column equilibrated at the same ammonium sulfate concentration (3.2M). A stepwise elution of the retained material at 1.0, 0.5, 0.2, 0.1M ammonium sulfate in ammonium hydrogen carbonate was performed and then with ammonium hydrogen carbonate alone and finally with 50% ethylene glycol. All fractions were analyzed by SDS-PAGE and Western blotting and the fractions containing PEBP-1 was further fractionated by size exclusion chromatography on a HR75 Superdex column permitting the isolation of ubiquitin in addition to PEBP-1 as demonstrated by Western blotting and mass spectrometry. This study shows the feasibility of hydrophobic interaction chromatography (HIC) on phenyl sepharose at a very high ammonium sulfate concentration (3.2M; 80% saturation) to efficiently purify the proteins that are still soluble in these extreme conditions.  相似文献

The binding of pure human serum albumin and pure human hemoglobin to L-phenylalinine Sepharose and aniline Sepharose columns, two chromatographic columns of differing hydrophobicity, has been investigated for various concentrations of ammonium sulfate salts.The binding of hemoglobin at a lower ammonium sulfate concentration than albumin in both hydrophobic support systems parallels the solubility and precipitation characteristics of these two proteins in solution and mirrors the phenomenon of salting out of proteins in solution. Both hemoglobin and albumin bind at lower concentrations on aniline Sepharose than on L-phenylalanine Sepharose, reflecting the greater efficiency of binding by the more hydrophobic support matrix.  相似文献

A method for the recovery and fractionation of whey proteins from a whey protein concentrate (80%, w/w) by hydrophobic interaction chromatography is proposed. Standard proteins and WPC 80 dissolved in phosphate buffer with ammonium sulfate 1 M were loaded in a HiPrep Octyl Sepharose FF column coupled to a fast protein liquid chromatography (FPLC) system and eluted by decreasing the ionic strength of the buffer using a salt gradient. The results showed that the most hydrophobic protein from whey is α-lactalbumin and the less hydrophobic is lactoferrin. It was possible to recover 45.2% of β-lactoglobulin using the HiPrep Octyl Sepharose FF column from the whey protein concentrate mixture with 99.6% purity on total protein basis.  相似文献

Ammonium sulfate fractionation of proteins from extremely halophilic bacteria on Sepharose 4B, carboxymethylcellulose, diethylaminoethylcellulose, and hexamethylenediamine-Agarose is described. Halophilic proteins are absorbed on these gels at 2.5 M ammonium sulfate and eluted by decreasing concentration gradients of this salt. The method has enabled the separation of malate dehydrogenase from glutamate dehydrogenase and aspartate aminotransferase on Sepharose 4B and the additional 15-fold purification of glutamate dehydrogenase on DEAE-cellulose. The technique is simple and convenient, operates at low cost, and possesses great power of resolution. The mechanism of adsorption is discussed and compared to previous instances of "hydrophobic chromatography". It is concluded that the retention of halophilic proteins on the polysaccharide gels at 2.5 M ammonium sulfate is due to hydrophobic interactions.  相似文献
