Mi X, Wang SC, Winters MA, Carta G. Protein adsorption on core-shell resins for flow-through purifications: Effect of protein molecular size, shape, and salt concentration. Biotechnol Prog 2023; 39:e3300.

Abstract
This work addresses the functional properties of the core-shell resins Capto Core 400 and 700 for a broad range of proteins spanning 66.5 to 660 kDa in molecular mass, including bovine serum albumin (BSA) in monomer and dimer form, fibronectin, thyroglobulin, and BSA conjugates with 10 and 30 kDa poly(ethylene glycol) chains. Negatively charged latex nanoparticles (NPs) with nominal diameters of 20, 40, and 100 nm are also studied as surrogates for bioparticles. Protein binding and its trends with respect to salt concentration depend on the protein size and are different for the two agarose-based multimodal resins. For the smaller proteins, the amount of protein bound over practical time scales is limited by the resin surface area and is larger for Capto Core 400 compared with Capto Core 700. For the larger proteins, diffusion is severely restricted in Capto Core 400, resulting in lower binding capacities than those observed for Capto Core 700 despite the larger surface area. Adding 500 mM NaCl reduces the local bound protein concentration and diffusional hindrance resulting in higher binding capacities for the large proteins in Capto Core 400 compared with low ionic strength conditions. The NPs are essentially completely excluded from the Capto Core 400 pores. However, 20 and 40 nm NPs bind significantly to Capto Core 700, further hindering protein diffusion. A model is provided to predict the dynamic binding capacities as a function of residence time.

Abstract
Affinity chromatography enables the separation and isolation of proteins of interest from complex milieu of biochemicals. Nickel-charged affinity resins and amylose resins are two commonly used matrices for the isolation of proteins with histidine tag (6× His-tag) and maltose binding protein (MBP) tag, respectively. Herein we describe the isolation of the Protruding domain (P-domain) of Norovirus's major capsid protein, VP1, through a highly efficient batch purification technique. By fusing the P-domain to a 6×His-MBP tag followed by a TEV cleavage site, we can effectively purify the P-domain in three chromatography steps (positive nickel affinity, negative nickel affinity, and negative amylose affinity).

Abstract
Immunization is the most effective way to respond to an influenza epidemic. To produce Vero cell-derived influenza vaccines, a more efficient, stable and economical purification process is required. In this study, we purified the H7N9 influenza virus grown in Vero cells that were cultured in a serum-free medium by using a combination of anion exchange chromatography (AEC) and ligand-activated core chromatography (LCC), which avoids the virus capture step. After purification, 99.95 % host cell DNA (hcDNA) (final concentration: 28.69 pg/dose) and 98.87 % host cell protein (HCP) (final concentration: 28.28 ng/dose) were removed. The albumin content was 11.36 ng/dose. All these remnants met the current Chinese Pharmacopoeia and WHO requirements. The final virus recovery rate was 58.74 %, with the concentration of hemagglutinin recorded at 132.12 μg/mL. The flow-through chromatography purification process represents an alternative to the existing processes for cell-derived influenza viruses and might be suitable for the purification of other viruses as well.

Abstract
Nanotechnology is one of the most promising technologies of the 21st century, and it is now presenting an enormous impact on target drug delivery. In this context, the recent use of natural vesicle-like nanoparticles such as extracellular vesicles (i.e., exosomes, microvesicles, and apoptotic bodies) and virus-like particles is rendering encouraging results mostly because these delivery systems present cargo versatility, favorable body circulating advantages, biocompatibility, immunogenicity, and the capacity to be modified superficially to increase their affinity to a certain target or to control their entrance to the cell. However, some of the biggest challenges toward their clinical implementation are poorly standardized processing operations due to their inherent heterogeneity and expensive, long-lasting, and difficult to scale isolation procedures that can also affect the stability of the particles. Under these circumstances, chromatographic procedures represent an attractive and favorable alternative to overcome their downstream processing. Moreover, even when standardized chromatographic purification protocols are still in development, great achievements have been made using size exclusion, ionic exchange, hydrophobic interaction, and affinity protocols, mostly because of the correct harnessing of the nanovesicle membrane properties. In this sense, this review focuses on presenting the current understanding on the most promising therapeutic biological nanoparticles and the chromatographic isolation approaches employed in their recovery, providing at the same time recent findings and a general overview of the aspects that might impact the outcome of chromatographic techniques for this application.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The STEAP1 is a cell-surface antigen over-expressed in prostate cancer, which contributes to tumor progression and aggressiveness. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying STEAP1 and its structural determinants remain elusive. METHODS The fraction capacity of Butyl- and Octyl-Sepharose matrices on LNCaP lysates was evaluated by manipulating the ionic strength of binding and elution phases, followed by a Co-Immunoprecipitation (Co-IP) polishing. Several potential stabilizing additives were assessed, and the melting temperature (Tm) values ranked the best/worst compounds. The secondary structure of STEAP1 was identified by circular dichroism. RESULTS The STEAP1 was not fully captured with 1.375 M (Butyl), in contrast with interfering heterologous proteins, which were strongly retained and mostly eluted with water. This single step demonstrated higher selectivity of Butyl-Sepharose for host impurities removal from injected crude samples. Co-IP allowed recovering a purified fraction of STEAP1 and contributed to unveil potential physiologically interacting counterparts with the target. A Tm of ~55 °C was determined, confirming STEAP1 stability in the purification buffer. A predominant α-helical structure was identified, ensuring the protein's structural stability. CONCLUSIONS A method for successfully isolating human STEAP1 from LNCaP cells was provided, avoiding the use of detergents to achieve stability, even outside a membrane-mimicking environment.

Abstract
Structural and functional characteristics of the two core-shell resins Capto™ Core 400 and 700, which are useful for the flow-through purification of bioparticles such as viruses, viral vectors, and vaccines, are compared using bovine serum albumin (BSA) and thyroglobulin (Tg) as models for small and large protein contaminants. Both resins are agarose-based and contain an adsorbing core surrounded by an inert shell. Although shell thicknesses are comparable (3.6 and 4.2 µm for Capto Core 400 and 700, respectively), the two resins differ substantially in pore size (pore radii of 19 and 50 nm, respectively). Because of the smaller pores and higher surface area, the BSA binding capacity of Capto Core 400 is approximately double that of Capto Core 700. However, for the much larger Tg, the attainable capacity is substantially larger for Capto Core 700. Mass transfer in both resins is affected by diffusional resistances through the shell and within the adsorbing core. For BSA, core and shell effective pore diffusivities are about 0.25 × 10-7 and 0.6 × 10-7 cm2/s, respectively, for Capto Core 400, and about 1.6 × 10-7 and 2.6 × 10-7 cm2/s, respectively, for Capto Core 700. These values decrease dramatically for Tg to 0.022 × 10-7 and 0.088 × 10-7 cm2/s and to 0.13 × 10-7 and 0.59 × 10-7 cm2/s for Capto Core 400 and 700, respectively. Adsorbed Tg further hinders diffusion of BSA in both resins. Column measurements show that, despite the higher static capacity of Capto Core 400 for BSA, the dynamic binding capacity is greater for Capto Core 700 as a result of its faster kinetics. However, some of this advantage is lost if the feed is a mixture of BSA and Tg since, in this case, Tg binding leads to greater diffusional hindrance for BSA.

High-Throughput Screening of Dye-Ligands for Chromatography. Methods Mol Biol 2020.

Abstract
Dye-ligand-based chromatography has become popular after Cibacron Blue, the first reactive textile dye, found application for protein purification. Many other textile dyes have since been successfully used to purify a number of proteins and enzymes. While the exact nature of their interaction with target proteins is often unclear, dye-ligands are thought to mimic the structural features of their corresponding substrates, cofactors, etc. The dye-ligand affinity matrices are therefore considered pseudo-affinity matrices. In addition, dye-ligands may simply bind with proteins due to electrostatic, hydrophobic, and hydrogen bonding interactions. Because of their low cost, ready availability, and structural stability, dye-ligand affinity matrices have gained much popularity. The choice of a large number of dye structures offers a range of matrices to be prepared and tested. When presented in the high-throughput screening mode, these dye-ligand matrices serve as a formidable tool for protein purification. One could pick from the list of dye-ligands already available or build a systematic library of such structures for use. A high-throughput screen may be set up to choose the best dye-ligand matrix as well as ideal conditions for binding and elution, for a given protein. The mode of operation could be either manual or automated. The technology is available to test the performance of dye-ligand matrices in small volumes in an automated liquid handling workstation. Screening a systematic library of dye-ligand structures can help establish a structure-activity relationship. While the origins of dye-ligand chromatography lie in exploiting pseudo-affinity, it is now possible to design very specific biomimetic dye structures. High-throughput screening will be of value in this endeavor as well.

Abstract
In the past few years, the gut microbiome has been shown to play an important role in various disorders including in particular cardiovascular diseases. Especially the metabolite trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO), which is produced by gut microbial metabolism, has repeatedly been associated with an increased risk for cardiovascular events. Here we report a fast liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method that can analyze the five most important gut metabolites with regards to TMAO in three minutes. Fast liquid chromatography is unconventionally used in this method as an on-line cleanup step to remove the most important ion suppressors leaving the gut metabolites in a cleaned flow through fraction, also known as negative chromatography. We compared different blood matrix types to recommend best sampling practices and found citrated plasma samples demonstrated lower concentrations for all analytes and choline concentrations were significantly higher in serum samples. We demonstrated the applicability of our method by investigating the effect of a standardized liquid meal (SLM) after overnight fasting of 25 healthy individuals on the gut metabolite levels. The SLM did not significantly change the levels of gut metabolites in serum.

Abstract
The ability to rapidly and accurately evaluate bioactive compounds immobilized on porous particles is crucial in the discovery of drugs, diagnostic reagents, ligands, and catalysts. Existing options for solid phase screening of bioactive compounds, while highly effective and well established, can be cost-prohibitive for proof-of-concept and early stage work, limiting its applicability and flexibility in new research areas. Here, we present a low-cost microfluidics-based platform enabling automated screening of small porous beads from solid-phase peptide libraries with high sensitivity and specificity, to identify leads with high binding affinity for a biological target. The integration of unbiased computer assisted image processing and analysis tools, provided the platform with the flexibility of sorting through beads with distinct fluorescence patterns. The customized design of the microfluidic device helped with handling beads with different diameters (~100-300 µm). As a microfluidic device, this portable novel platform can be integrated with a variety of analytical instruments to perform screening. In this study, the system utilizes fluorescence microscopy and unsupervised image analysis, and can operate at a sorting speed of up to 125 beads/hr (~3.5 times faster than a trained operator) providing >90% yield and >90% bead sorting accuracy. Notably, the device has proven successful in screening a model solid-phase peptide library by showing the ability to select beads carrying peptides binding a target protein (human IgG).

Abstract
Virus-like particles (VLPs) are a promising and developing option for vaccination and gene therapy. They are also interesting as shuttles for drug targeting. Currently, several different gene expression systems are available, among which the silkworm expression system is known for its mass production capacity. However, cost-effective purification with high purity of the target protein is a particular bottleneck for this system. The present review evaluates the advances in the purification of VLPs, especially from silkworm larval hemolymph. Beginning with applicable pre-treatments for VLPs over to chromatography methods and quality control of the purified VLPs. Whereupon the main focus is on the different chromatography approaches for the purification, but the structure of the VLPs and their intended use for humans make also the quality control important. Within this, the stability of the VLPs which has to be considered for the purification is as well discussed.

Abstract
Since newly emerging influenza viruses with pandemic potentials occurred in recent years, the demand for producing pandemic influenza vaccines for human use is high. For the development of a quick and efficient vaccine production, we proposed an efficient purification platform from the harvest to the purified bulk for the cell-based influenza vaccine production. This platform based on flow-through chromatography and filtration steps and the process only involves a few purification steps, including depth filtration, inactivation by formaldehyde, microfiltration, ultrafiltration, anion-exchange and ligand-core chromatography and sterile filtration. In addition, in the proposed chromatography steps, no virus capture steps were employed, and the purification results were not affected by the virus strain variation, host cells and culturing systems. The results from different virus strains which produced by Vero or MDCK cells in different culturing systems also obtained 33-46% HA recovery yields by this platform. The overall removal rates of the protein and DNA concentration in the purified bulk were over 96.1% and 99.7%, respectively. The low residual cellular DNA concentrations were obtained ranged from 30 to 130pg per human dose (15µg/dose). All influenza H5N1 purified bulks met the regulatory requirements for human vaccine use.

Abstract
The downstream processing of virus particles for vaccination or gene therapy is becoming a critical bottleneck as upstream titers keep improving. Moreover, the growing pressure to develop cost-efficient processes has brought forward new downstream trains. This review aims at analyzing the state-of-the-art in viral downstream purification processes, encompassing the classical unit operations and their recent developments. Emphasis is given to novel strategies for process intensification, such as continuous or semi-continuous systems based on multicolumn technology, opening up process efficiency. Process understanding in the light of the pharmaceutical quality by design (QbD) initiative is also discussed. Finally, an outlook of the upcoming breakthrough technologies is presented.
