Abstract: | After Sepharose 4B polymer beads were activated by using epichlorohydrin, hemin was binded with them to prepare an immobilized hemin affinity chromatography column. The coupling rate of this column was very high, more than 0.25mg hemin could be fixed by 1g of wet Sepharose 4B beads. The column equilibrated with deionized water and eluated with pH 3.0 NaAc-HAc buffer was applied to capture the proteins in human serum, earthworm body and Bacillus subtilis cells. Three polypeptides in human serum were captured, one of which was verified as serum albumin after comparison to the control. At least one polypeptide in earthworm body, two in Bacillus subtilis cells displayed the powerful binding specificity to hemin. Our experiments demonstrated that the immobilized hemin affinity chromatography was available as a probe for some proteins having potentiality to bind with heme. |
