Abstract
Beads-embedded novel composite cryogel was synthesized to purify lysozyme (Lyz) from chicken egg white. The poly(hydroxyethyl methacrylate-N-methacryloyl-L-phenylalanine) (PHEMAPA) beads of smaller than 5 µm size were synthesized by suspension polymerization and then embedded into a poly(hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (PHEMA)-based cryogel column. The PHEMAPA bead-embedded cryogel (BEC) column was characterized by swelling tests, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), surface area measurements by the Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) method, elemental analysis, and flow dynamics. The specific surface area of the PHEMAPA BEC was found as 41.2 m(2) /g using BET measurements. Lyz-binding experiments were performed using aqueous solutions in different conditions such as initial Lyz concentration, pH, flow rate, temperature, and NaCl concentration of an aqueous medium. The PHEMAPA BEC column could be used after 10 adsorption-desorption studies without any significant loss in adsorption capacity of Lyz. The PHEMAPA BEC column was used to purify Lyz from chicken egg white, and gel electrophoresis was used to estimate the purity of Lyz. The chromatographic application of the PHEMAPA BEC column was also performed using fast protein liquid chromatography.

[PMID: 19100553 DOI: 10.1016/j.chroma.2008.11.089] [Citation(s) in RCA: 29] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/29/2008] [Revised: 11/25/2008] [Accepted: 11/27/2008] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
Hydrophobic interaction chromatography (HIC) is a key technique for protein separation and purification. Different methodologies to estimate the hydrophobicity of a protein are reviewed, which have been related to the chromatographic behavior of proteins in HIC. These methodologies consider either knowledge of the three-dimensional structure or the amino acid composition of proteins. Despite some restrictions; they have proven to be useful in predicting protein retention time in HIC.

Abstract
This paper gives a summary of different aspects for predicting protein behaviour in hydrophobic interaction chromatography (HIC). First, a brief description of HIC, hydrophobic interactions, amino acid and protein hydrophobicity is presented. After that, several factors affecting protein chromatographic behaviour in HIC are described. Finally, different approaches for predicting protein retention time in HIC are shown. Using all this information, it could be possible to carry out computational experiments by varying the different operating conditions for the purification of a target protein; and then selecting the best conditions in silico and designing a rational protein purification process involving an HIC step.

Abstract
Purification of recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH) from Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell culture supernatant by Gradiflow large-scale electrophoresis is described. Production of rhGH in CHO cells is an alternative to production in Escherichia coli, with the advantage that rhGH is secreted into protein-free production media, facilitating a more simple purification and avoiding resolubilization of inclusion bodies and protein refolding. As an alternative to conventional chromatography, rhGH was purified in a one-step procedure using Gradiflow technology. Clarified culture supernatant containing rhGH was passed through a Gradiflow BF200 and separations were performed over 60 min using three different buffers of varying pH. Using a 50 mM Tris/Hepes buffer at pH 7.5 together with a 50 kDa separation membrane, rhGH was purified to approximately 98% purity with a yield of 90%. This study demonstrates the ability of Gradiflow preparative electrophoresis technology to purify rhGH from mammalian cell culture supernatant in a one-step process with high purity and yield. As the Gradiflow is directly scalable, this study also illustrates the potential for the inclusion of the Gradiflow into bioprocesses for the production of clinical grade rhGH and other therapeutic proteins.

Abstract
Hydrophobic interaction chromatography (HIC) is widely used in the downstream processing of proteins. Resolution of HIC is very good, but sometimes not as high as expected. Resolution values could be increased if good operating conditions were selected. In this paper we present a methodology for selecting good operating conditions. First, it is necessary to predict the dimensionless retention time (DRT) of each protein in the mixture. We use a correlation such as DRT = A + Bphi + Cphi2, where phi is the superficial hydrophobicity of the protein, which is calculated considering the hydrophobicity of the superficial amino acids using the Miyazawa-Jernigan scale. Considering that there was little interaction amongst proteins in a mixture at the concentrations investigated (2 g/l of each protein), the behaviour of the proteins in the mixture was considered to be similar to that of the individual proteins. Using simulations it was possible to test different operating conditions for the purification of a target protein from a mixture of proteins and it was possible to select ideal conditions. The methodology developed was also tested for the purification of a recombinant protein from a fermentation extract of yeast producing human superoxide dismutase and the results have been satisfactory.

Abstract
Recombinant DNA-derived proteins and, in particular, human pituitary hormones, are increasingly used for research, diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. This trend has demanded new synthetic approaches and improved purification techniques. The type and sequence of the purification steps have to be selected in accordance with the cloning and protein expression strategy, the host organism and cellular localization of the protein of interest, with a view to producing the desired product at a required purity, biological activity and acceptable cost. This review article describes and analyzes the main synthetic and purification strategies that have been used for the production of recombinant human growth hormone, prolactin, thyrotropin, luteinizing hormone and follicle-stimulating hormone, giving special consideration to the few published downstream processes utilized by the biotechnology industry. Practically all types of prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms utilized for this purpose are also reviewed.

Abstract
A six-step, high-yield purification procedure for the preparation of clinical grade recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH) secreted in bacterial periplasmic space is described. Particular emphasis is given to hormone recovery yields and maximum contaminant host cell elimination. The strategy adopted, in addition to using one precipitation and five chromatographic steps in a particularly efficient sequence, was also based on running E. coli proteins - immunoradiometric assay profiles right after each chromatographic elution. Thus, an overall rhGH recovery higher than 40%, with a final concentration of E. coli proteins below 10 ppm is described for the first time. The accuracy of hGH and total protein quantification, especially in the early steps of the process, and the maximum elimination of hGH-related forms were also studied in detail. For these purposes size-exclusion and reversed-phase HPLC were found to be extremely valuable analytical tools.

Abstract
An isocratic reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) method for the determination of human growth hormone (hGH) directly in osmotic shock fluids is described. This methodology allows an initial rapid evaluation of the quality and quantity of hGH being secreted in the bacterial periplasmic space right after, or even during fermentation. Considering that RP-HPLC does not identify size isomers, these were determined via a parallel run of the same osmotic shock fluid on high-performance size-exclusion chromatography, coupled with radioimmunoassay, of the eluted fractions. The methodology provides a complete picture, within 24 h from the beginning of the fermentation process, of the recombinant protein being produced with respect to its activity, identity, yield, and hGH-related contaminants. These latter include sulfoxide and desamido derivatives, dimer and high-molecular-mass forms.

Abstract
Immobilized metal affinity chromatography was examined as a method for the purification of recombinant human growth hormone, somatotropin. Cellulose-based chelating supports, Chelat-Granocel, of a different content of ligand, charged with Cu(II), were assessed for their ability to bind the protein from both crude extract and solution purified by two chromatography steps. Human growth hormone was found to exhibit high affinity to chelating support charged with Cu(II). One step of immobilized metal affinity chromatography on Chelat-Granocel gives 80% purification of the protein. It was shown that the protein retention depends highly on the ligand density. By regulating sorbent ligand density a favourable desorption was achieved.
