Abstract
One of the most crucial parameters in protein crystallization is pH, as it governs the protein's electrostatic interactions. However, the fundamental role of pH on crystallization still remains unknown. Here, we systematically investigated the crystallization of human insulin (isoelectric point 5.3) at various pHs between 6.0 and 6.7 at different supersaturation ratios, up to 20.9. Our results demonstrate that the pH has an opposing effect on solubility and nucleation rate as a shift in pH toward a more basic milieu increases the solubility by 5-fold while the onset of nucleation was accelerated by a maximum of 8.6-fold. To shed light on this opposing effect, we evaluated the protein-protein interactions as a function of pH by measuring the second virial coefficient and hydrodynamic radius and showed that a change in pH of less than one unit has no significant impact on the protein-protein interactions. As it is widely understood that the increase in protein solubility as a function of pH is due to the increase in the repulsive electrostatic interactions, we have demonstrated that the increase in insulin solubility and decrease in the onset of nucleation are independent of the protein-protein interactions. We hypothesize that it is the electrostatic interactions between both ions and solvent molecules and the protein residues that are governing the crystallization of human insulin. The findings of this study will be of crucial importance for the design of novel crystallization pathways.

Practical method development for the separation of monoclonal antibodies and antibody-drug-conjugate species in hydrophobic interaction chromatography, part 1: optimization of the mobile phase.

Abstract
The goal of this work is to provide some recommendations for method development in HIC using monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) and antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) as model drug candidates. The effects of gradient steepness, mobile phase pH, salt concentration and type, as well as organic modifier were evaluated for tuning selectivity and retention in HIC. Except the nature of the stationary phase, which was not discussed in this study, the most important parameter for modifying selectivity was the gradient steepness. The addition of organic solvent (up to 15% isopropanol) in the mobile phase was also found to be useful for mAbs analysis, since it could provide some changes in elution order, in some cases. On the contrary, isopropanol was not beneficial with ADCs, since the most hydrophobic DAR species (DAR6 and DAR8) cannot be eluted from the stationary phase under these conditions. This study also illustrates the possibility to perform HIC method development using optimization software, such as Drylab. The optimum conditions suggested by the software were tested using therapeutic mAbs and commercial cysteine linked ADC (brentuximab-vedotin) and the average retention time errors between predicted and experimental retention times were ∼ 1%.

Abstract
Phycobilisomes are supramolecular assemblies of phycobiliproteins responsible for photosynthetic light collection in red algae and cyanobacteria. They can be selectively dissociated by reduction of temperature and buffer concentration. Phycobilisomes isolated from Fremyella diplosiphon transfer energy collected by C-phycoerythrin and C-phycocyanin to allophycocyanin. The energy transfer to allophycocyanin is nearly abolished at 2 degrees C, as indicated by a blue shift in fluorescence emission, and is accompanied by a decrease in the circular dichroism in the region of allophycocyanin absorbance. Further dissociation of the phycobilisomes can be attained by reduction of buffer concentration and holding at 2 degrees C. Energy transfer to C-phycocyanin is nearly abolished, and decreases occur in the circular dichroism in the region of C-phycocyanin and C-phycoerythrin absorbance. Complete dissociation of the phycobilisomes at low buffer concentration and 2 degrees C requires extended time. Energy transfer to C-phycocyanin is further reduced and the circular dichroism maximum of C-phycoerythrin at 575 nm is lost. Circular dichroism provides information on the hexamer-monomer transitions of the phycobiliproteins, whereas fluorescence is indicative of hexamer-hexamer interactions. We consider that hydrophobic interactions are fundamental to the maintenance of the structure and function of phycobilisomes.

Abstract
Despite recent improvement in cellulase enzymes properties, the high cost associated with the hydrolysis step remains a major impediment to the commercialization of full-scale lignocellulose-to-ethanol bioconversion process. As part of a research effort to develop a commercial process for bioconversion of softwood residues, we have examined the potential for recycling enzymes during the hydrolysis of mixed softwood substrate pretreated by organosolv process. We have used response surface methodology to determine the optimal temperature, pH, ionic strength, and surfactant (Tween 80) concentration for maximizing the recovery of bound protein and enzyme activity from the residual substrates after hydrolysis. Data analysis showed that the temperature, pH and surfactant concentration were the major factors governing enzyme desorption from residual substrate. The optimized conditions were temperature 44.4 degrees C, pH 5.3 and 0.5% Tween 80. The optimal conditions significantly increased the hydrolysis yield by 25% after three rounds of hydrolysis. This bound enzyme desorption combining with free enzyme re-adsorption is a potential method to recover cellulase enzymes and reduce the cost of enzymatic hydrolysis.

Abstract
In the large-scale manufacturing and purification of protein therapeutics, multiple chromatography adsorbent lots are often required due to limited absorbent batch sizes or during replacement at the end of the useful column lifetime. Variability in the adsorbent performance from lot to lot should be minimal in order to ensure that consistent product purity and product quality attributes are achieved when a different lot or lot mixture is implemented in the process. Vendors of chromatographic adsorbents will often provide release specifications, which may possess a narrow range of acceptable values. Despite relatively narrow release specifications, the performance of the adsorbent in a given purification process could still vary from lot to lot. In this case, an alternative use test (one that properly captures the lot to lot variability) may be required to determine an acceptable range of variability for a specific process. In this work, we describe the separation of therapeutic protein monomer and aggregate species using hydrophobic interaction chromatography, which is potentially sensitive to adsorbent lot variability. An alternative use test is formulated, which can be used to rapidly screen different adsorbent lots prior to implementation in a large-scale manufacturing process. In addition, the underlying mechanism responsible for the adsorbent lot variability, which was based upon differences in protein adsorption characteristics, was also investigated using both experimental and modeling approaches.

Abstract
A general thermodynamic relation was derived to correlate protein solubility to retention in hydrophobic interaction chromatography (HIC). This relation is built on a thermodynamic formulation presented previously by Melander, Horváth and co-workers in the context of the solvophobic theory, but the final result is independent of this model framework. The relation reflects an increase in protein retention in HIC under conditions that promote precipitation or crystallization, consistent with early descriptions of HIC. To examine the contribution of protein solubility to retention in HIC, isocratic elution experiments were performed with four different commercially available agarose media and four model proteins (ribonuclease A (RNA), lysozyme (LYS), myoglobin (MYO), and ovalbumin (OVA)). A wide variety of retention trends were observed as a function of protein, adsorbent type, salt type and concentration, and pH. In general, however, the results show that solubility, or its surrogate, the second osmotic virial coefficient, which reflects solution thermodynamic properties, correlates well with HIC retention in many cases; this includes correctly predicting reverse Hofmeister effects, which cannot be explained by retention models based on the solvophobic theory and preferential interaction theory. However, solution properties could not explain retention behavior under some conditions. In those cases, effects such as protein-surface interactions or conformational change could be important determinants of protein adsorption.

Abstract
Hydrophobic interaction chromatography (HIC) exploits the hydrophobic properties of protein surfaces for separation and purification by performing interactions with chromatographic sorbents of hydrophobic nature. In contrast to reversed-phase chromatography, this methodology is less detrimental to the protein and is therefore more commonly used in industrial scale as well as in bench scale when the conformational integrity of the protein is important. Hydrophobic interactions are promoted by salt and thus proteins are retained in presence of a cosmotropic salt. When proteins are injected on HIC columns with increasing salt concentrations under isocratic conditions only, a fraction of the applied amount is eluted. The higher the salt concentration, the lower is the amount of eluted protein. The rest can be desorbed with a buffer of low salt concentration or water. It has been proposed that the stronger retained protein fraction has partially changed the conformation upon adsorption. This has been also corroborated by physicochemical measurements. The retention data of 5 different model proteins and 10 different stationary phases were evaluated. Partial unfolding of proteins upon adsorption on surfaces of HIC media were assumed and a model describing the adsorption of native and partial unfolded fraction was developed. Furthermore, we hypothesize that the surface acts as catalyst for partial unfolding, since the fraction of partial unfolded protein is increasing with length of the alkyl chain.

Abstract
It is well established that salt enhances the interaction between solutes (e.g., proteins, displacers) and the weak hydrophobic ligands in hydrophobic interaction chromatography (HIC) and that various salts (e.g., kosmotropes, chaotropes, and neutral) have different effects on protein retention. In this article, the solute affinity in kosmotropic, chaotropic, and neutral mobile phases are compared and the selectivity of solutes in the presence of these salts is examined. Since solute binding in HIC systems is driven by the release of water molecules, the total number of released water molecules in the presence of various types of salts was calculated using the preferential interaction theory. Chromatographic retention times and selectivity reversals of both proteins and displacers were found to be consistent with the total number of released water molecules. Finally, the solute surface hydrophobicity was also found to have a significant effect on its retention in HIC systems.

Abstract
The interaction thermodynamics associated with bovine serum albumin (BSA) adsorption on polypropylene glycol (PPG)-Sepharose CL-6B gel, using ammonium and sodium sulfate was studied. Analysis of data under linear conditions was accomplished with the stoichiometric displacement retention model and preferential interaction approach. Preferential interaction analysis indicated a strong entropic driving force due to the release of a large amount of solvent on adsorption. Flow microcalorimetry provided direct heat of adsorption measurements under overloaded conditions and confirmed that the adsorption of BSA on PPG-Sepharose was entropically driven within the range of conditions studied. Using these data in combination with isotherm measurements, it is shown that protein surface coverage, salt concentration, salt type and temperature affect the enthalpic and entropic behavior in hydrophobic interaction chromatography (HIC). This study shows that protein-sorbent interactions can be strongly influenced by the degree of water release, protein-protein interactions on the surface, and the re-orientation and/or reconfiguration of the adsorbed protein.

Abstract
Viruses were characterized by their adsorption to DEAE-Sepharose or by their elution from octyl-Sepharose by using buffered solutions of sodium chloride with different ionic strengths. Viruses whose adsorption to DEAE-Sepharose was reduced most rapidly by an increase in the sodium chloride concentration were considered to have the weakest electrostatic interactions with the solids; these viruses included MS2, E1, and phiX174. Viruses whose adsorption to DEAE-Sepharose was reduced least rapidly were considered to have the strongest electrostatic interactions with the column; these viruses included P1, T4, T2, and E5. All of the viruses studied adsorbed to octyl-Sepharose in the presence of 4 M NaCl. Viruses that were eluted most rapidly following a decrease in the concentration of NaCl were considered to have the weakest hydrophobic interactions with the column; these viruses included phiX174, CB4, and E1. Viruses that were eluted least rapidly from the columns after the NaCl concentration was decreased were considered to have the strongest hydrophobic interactions with the column; these viruses included f2, MS2, and E5.

Abstract
The identification of food allergens is a priority in the management of food allergy, because of the need to obtain standardized extracts and pure allergens for diagnosis and therapy. It is thus important to develop methods for purification of allergenic molecules in order to study their biological and immunological characteristics. Protocols for protein extraction from foods and for allergen purification are reviewed in this paper. We report published methods for extraction of allergens from either animal and vegetable foods and detailed purification methodologies including ion-exchange, gel filtration and reversed-phase chromatography of well known allergens.

Abstract
Enrichment of proteins in solution is the goal of a purification process and often a scientific challenge. We investigated the capacity of hydrophobic interaction chromatography to enrich proteins, potential candidates for novel drug targets. The soluble protein fraction of Haemophilus influenzae was fractionated over a TSK Phenyl column and the proteins resolved were analyzed by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization mass spectrometry. Approximately 150 proteins, bound to the column, were identified, 30 for the first time. Most of the proteins enriched by hydrophobic interaction chromatography were represented by major spots, so that an enrichment of low-copy-number gene products was only partially achieved. The proteins enriched by this chromatographic approach belong to various protein classes, including enzymes, ribosomal proteins and proteins with as yet unknown functions. The results include two-dimensional maps and a list of the proteins enriched by hydrophobic interaction chromatography.

Abstract
Interactions between surfaces and macromolecules are the fundamentals in separation and detection of diverse solutes. In this very brief review the central aspects of protein-surface interactions are discussed with the intention of identifying the important factors influencing such processes and placing them in relation to the established knowledge in this field. Some perspectives of new techniques related to scanning probe microscopy for studying interactions at the nanometer level are also discussed.

Abstract
Liposomes have been used as a stationary phase for column chromatography with an aqueous mobile phase. They were immobilized in the pores of carrier gel beads by two methods: (A) hydrophobic ligands were coupled to the matrix of gel beads, which then were packed into a column and liposomes were applied and became associated with the ligands by hydrophobic interaction; and (B) phospholipids and detergent were dialysed in the presence of gel beads; many of the liposomes that formed in the pores of the beads were sterically immobilized by the gel matrix. Proteoliposomes containing red cell glucose transport protein in the lipid bilayers were immobilized in a column by method A. This column retained D-glucose longer than L-glucose. In contrast to L-glucose, D-glucose was transported into and out of the immobilized liposomes, causing an increased retention. Liposomes with (stearylamine)+ or (phosphatidylserine)- in their lipid bilayers were immobilized by method B and the gel beads were packed into a column. A protein of opposite charge was applied in excess. Under suitable conditions, the protein molecules became close-packed on the liposome surfaces. Ion-exchange chromatographic experiments with proteins showed that these sterically immobilized liposomes were also stable enough to be used as a stationary phase. The loss of lipids was 5-23% in the first run at high protein load and with sodium chloride gradient elution but was lower in subsequent runs. It is proposed that water-soluble molecules can be separated and their interactions with liposome surfaces studied by chromatography on immobilized liposomes in detergent-free aqueous solution. Membrane proteins can be inserted and ligands can be anchored in the lipid bilayers for chromatographic purposes.

Abstract
Human serum proteins were separated on a matrix obtained by reaction of beta-mercaptoethanol with divinyl sulfone-activated agarose (the so-called T-gel). Binding of almost all serum proteins was observed at high concentrations of ammonium sulfate. Elution was achieved by gradually lowering the concentration of salt in the washing buffer. Fractions obtained during elution were analyzed by fused rocket immunoelectrophoresis. Proteins were recovered in high yields and with an excellent separation in this one-step procedure ("Thiophilic adsorption chromatography"). A rapid and straightforward procedure giving essentially pure immunoglobulins from crude rabbit serum with at least 80% yield by the T-gel is also presented.

Abstract
A selection of different membranes commonly used to bind proteins in blotting and dot binding assays were investigated for a range of properties which would influence their performance. Large differences were observed in the membranes' ability to bind increasing amounts of protein, the effect of incubation times on the quantity of protein bound and the loss of proteins from the membranes following their incubation with different detergents or protein blocking agents. These differences could only partially explain the observed performance of the membranes when used as protein adsorbants in immunoassays and when different buffers were used for the electro-transfer of several different proteins to a range of membranes.

Abstract
The effect of hydrophobic interactions on the activation of C. perfringens NCTC 8679 spores was examined by heating spores under conditions that modify the hydrophobic properties of biological macromolecules. After the activation treatment and a washing procedure, germination was determined by measuring the decrease in optical density of spores suspended in an enriched germination medium. Activation was inhibited for spores that were treated under conditions that strengthen hydrophobic interactions, i.e., a decrease in pH or the presence of structure-stabilizing neutral salts. Activation was enhanced by treatment under conditions that disrupt hydrophobic interactions, i.e., an increase in pH or the presence of urea, dibucaine, or denaturing neutral salts. A deactivation treatment with the antichaotropic salt (NH4)2SO4 reversed activation by the chaotropic salt CaCl2 and to a lesser extent reversed activation by sublethal heat (75 degrees C) or urea. Most treatments that enhanced activation increased spore injury at higher temperatures, which resulted in decreased germination. However, (NH4)2SO4 and a decrease in pH from 5.6 to 3.8, which inhibited activation, also favored injury. The results suggest that activation involves a conformational change of a spore protein(s) through weakening of hydrophobic molecular forces and that activation and injury occur at different spore sites.

Abstract
Hydrophobic interaction chromatography has been used to demonstrate an increase in the surface hydrophobicity of [3H]triamcinolone acetonide ([3H]TA)-labeled type II receptors in mouse brain cytosol following transformation of these receptor complexes to the activated DNA-binding form. After removing unbound [3H]TA and molybdate (which prevents activation) by gel filtration, [3H]TA-type II receptors were activated by incubation at 22 degrees C for 20 min. Gel filtration was then used to remove newly dissociated steroid and to readjust the molybdate and/or KCl concentration. Unactivated and activated receptors were then added to propyl, butyl, pentyl, hexyl, octyl, decyl, and dodecyl alkyl agarose, phenyl agarose, or unmodified agarose columns equilibrated and eluted with buffers of various molybdate and KCl concentrations and/or other additions, including glycerol, ethylene glycol, and urea. Under high-salt conditions, activated receptors were retained longer than unactivated receptors run on butyl, pentyl, hexyl, and phenyl agaroses. With the longer alkyl chain columns, essentially none of the [3H]TA was eluted in association with receptor macromolecules. Removal of the remaining steroid required receptor denaturation with urea. Under low-salt conditions, both receptor forms were retained more avidly on all alkyl agarose columns; however, on phenyl agarose only activated receptors displayed this increased retention. Further studies revealed that optimal separation and subsequent recovery of unactivated and activated [3H]TA-type II receptor complexes were achieved on pentyl agarose columns equilibrated and eluted with buffers containing 50 mM molybdate and 600-1,200 mM KCl.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
An attempt was made to explain the effect of concentrated salts on protein interaction with hydrophobic columns. From the previously observed results of preferential interactions for salting-out salts with proteins, it was shown that the free energy of the protein is increased by addition of the salts and this unfavorable free energy is smaller for the proteins bound to the columns because of their smaller surface area exposed to solvent; i.e., the bound form of the proteins is thermodynamically more stable. This explains the protein binding to the hydrophobic columns at high salt concentrations and the elution by decreasing the salt concentration. The unfavorable interaction free energy was greater for Na2SO4 or (NH4)2SO4 than for NaCl, which explains the stronger effect of the former salts on the protein binding to the columns. The observed favorable interaction between KSCN or guanidine hydrochloride and the proteins explains the decreasing effect of these salts on the protein binding to the hydrophobic columns.

Abstract
Starting from known properties of non-specific salt effects on the surface tension at an air-water interface, we propose the first general, detailed qualitative molecular mechanism for the origins of ion-specific (Hofmeister) effects on the surface potential difference at an air-water interface; this mechanism suggests a simple model for the behaviour of water at all interfaces (including water-solute interfaces), regardless of whether the non-aqueous component is neutral or charged, polar or non-polar. Specifically, water near an isolated interface is conceptually divided into three layers, each layer being I water-molecule thick. We propose that the solute determines the behaviour of the adjacent first interfacial water layer (I1); that the bulk solution determines the behaviour of the third interfacial water layer (I3), and that both I1 and I3 compete for hydrogen-bonding interactions with the intervening water layer (I2), which can be thought of as a transition layer. The model requires that a polar kosmotrope (polar water-structure maker) interact with I1 more strongly than would bulk water in its place; that a chaotrope (water-structure breaker) interact with I1 somewhat less strongly than would bulk water in its place; and that a non-polar kosmotrope (non-polar water-structure maker) interact with I1 much less strongly than would bulk water in its place. We introduce two simple new postulates to describe the behaviour of I1 water molecules in aqueous solution. The first, the 'relative competition' postulate, states that an I1 water molecule, in maximizing its free energy (--delta G), will favour those of its highly directional polar (hydrogen-bonding) interactions with its immediate neighbours for which the maximum pairwise enthalpy of interaction (--delta H) is greatest; that is, it will favour the strongest interactions. We describe such behaviour as 'compliant', since an I1 water molecule will continually adjust its position to maximize these strong interactions. Its behaviour towards its remaining immediate neighbours, with whom it interacts relatively weakly (but still favourably), we describe as 'recalcitrant', since it will be unable to adjust its position to maximize simultaneously these interactions.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)
