Abstract
Several inorganic materials are potentially suitable for enzymatic covalent immobilization, by means of several different techniques. Such materials must meet stringent criteria to be suitable as solid matrices: complete insolubility in water, reasonable mechanical strength and chemical resistance under the operational conditions, the capability to form manageable particles with high surface area, reactivity towards derivatizing/functionalizing agents. Non-specific protein adsorption should be always considered when planning covalent immobilization on inorganic solids. A huge mass of experimental work has shown that silica, silicates, borosilicates and aluminosilicates, alumina, titania, and other oxides, are the materials of choice when attempting enzyme immobilizations on inorganic supports. More recently, some forms of elemental carbon, silicon, and certain metals have been also proposed for certain applications. With regard to the derivatization/functionalization techniques, the use of organosilanes through silanization is undoubtedly the most studied and the most applied, although inorganic bridge formation and acylation with selected acyl halides have been deeply studied. In the present article, the most common inorganic supports for covalent immobilization of the enzymes are reviewed, with particular focus on their advantages and disadvantages in terms of enzyme loadings, operational stability, undesired adsorption, and costs. Mechanisms and methods for covalent immobilization are also discussed, focusing on the most widespread activating approaches (such as glutaraldehyde, cyanogen bromide, divinylsulfone, carbodiimides, carbonyldiimidazole, sulfonyl chlorides, chlorocarbonates, N-hydroxysuccinimides).

Abstract
Post-translational modifications alter protein structure, affecting activity, stability, localization and/or binding partners. Antibodies that specifically recognize post-translationally modified proteins have a number of uses including immunocytochemistry and immunoprecipitation of the modified protein to purify protein-protein and protein-nucleic acid complexes. However, antibodies directed at modified sites on individual proteins are often nonspecific. Here we describe a protocol to purify polyclonal antibodies that specifically detect the modified protein of interest. The approach uses iterative rounds of subtraction and affinity purification, using stringent washes to remove antibodies that recognize the unmodified protein and low sequence complexity epitopes containing the modified amino acid. Dot blot and western blot assays are used to assess antibody preparation specificity. The approach is designed to overcome the common occurrence that a single round of subtraction and affinity purification is not sufficient to obtain a modified protein-specific antibody preparation. One full round of antibody purification and specificity testing takes 6 d of discontinuous time.

Abstract
New, highly sensitive, biosensor concepts make it possible to assay biomacromolecules at concentrations that previously were far below the limit of detection. The previous generation of assays used in quality control situations during biotechnological production was designed primarily for monitoring target molecules, which typically appeared in high concentrations. Hence, novel analytical techniques with high sensitivity should become increasingly important in meeting the demands from regulatory agencies with regard to declaring levels of impurities in biopharmaceuticals. Such techniques also open up opportunities for a range of other challenging measurements, for example, in the area of biohazards. This review describes the development of immuno-based biosensors and exemplifies these by presenting analyses of common impurities in biopharmaceutical production.

Abstract
Iron chelates are usually costly and easily leached beyond the root zone. This creates a need to frequently replenish the rhizosphere with chelated Fe and might contaminate groundwater with organic compounds and metals. The development of a slow-release Fe fertilizer that will efficiently supply Fe to plants while exhibiting high resistance toward leaching and/or degradation in the rhizosphere has been the focus of this study. Desferrioxamine B (DFOB) and ethylenediaminebis(o-hydroxyphenylacetic acid) (EDDHA) were immobilized on Sepharose. (13)C NMR and FTIR measurements confirmed that coupling of DFOB to the gel did not appear to influence its ability to chelate Fe(3+) or its binding nature. Isotherms for the immobilized ligands were determined in the presence of 1 mM HEDTA, at 25 degrees C and at an ionic strength of 0.1 M. The isotherms showed a high affinity of Fe(3+) to the ligands and binding up to saturation level throughout the pH range examined (4.0-9.0). The K(app) values for the immobilized Fe chelates were determined using a modified Scatchard model and found to be lower than the soluble ones. This decrease in K(app) might facilitate Fe uptake from these chelates by plants.

Abstract
Capillary electrophoresis immunoassay (CEIA) is shown to be substantially more sensitive to the antibody (Ab) reagent quality than are immunosorbent methods such as enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA). Cyanine 5 (Cy5)-labeled monoclonal anti-ovalbumin (mAb*) was inactive for CEIA of ovalbumin (Ov), yet was functional in ELISA for Ov. ELISA showed the mAb* was at least ten times less active, accounting for the poor CEIA performance. Labeled polyclonal Ab was inactive for a dye to protein ratio greater than 1.6. An affinity protection chromatography procedure (APC) was developed for Ab labeling, which avoided degradation of the Ab binding site. Ov was covalently bound to cyanogen bromide activated cellulose gel in a column, and used to capture the Ab. The coupling efficiency for Ov to the gel was 74-97%, Ab could then be bound with 95-100% efficiency, and Ab* was recovered in 50% yield following labeling on the column. This procedure was performed successfully in three different laboratories, indicating the robustness of the optimized APC synthetic method. No inactive Ab* could be detected in the APC product. The CEIA detection limit for ovalbumin using APC labeled mAb was 173 nM, when [Ab*] was fixed at 163 nM. The association constants of mAb and mAb* were determined by CEIA.

Abstract
The site of modification that is responsible for the formation of superactive insulin (ILM) was determined. The insulin derivative was prepared by treatment of insulin-Sepharose with ammonium bicarbonate. It was found that the insulin was bound to the resin through histidine B10, His (B10), and its ammonium bicarbonate-mediated release resulted in an insulin analog in which His (B10) was modified on the imidazole ring. This modification was reversible upon storage, resulting in normal levels of insulin activity. Amino acid analysis of a peptide containing this modified histidine revealed some aspartic acid. Since Asp (B10) insulin is also superactive, the observed superactivity may thus stem from either modification of the histidine or its conversion to aspartic acid.

Abstract
The CB.Hep-1 monoclonal antibody was coupled to CNBr-activated Sepharose CL 4B at three different immobilization scales for purification of recombinant hepatitis B surface antigen. Standard laboratory apparatus to obtain immunosorbents of 1 l (scale I) and 3 l (scale II) as well as a stirrer tank to prepare 6 l immunosorbents (scale III) were used. The binding capacity at scale III was 2- and 1.5-fold higher with respect to the scales II and I, while a reduction in the ligand leakage of 5- and 2-folds was observed. Immunosorbents from scale II showed a significantly reduced adsorption, and an increased ligand leakage. Differences in the coupling efficiency were not observed. Antigen purity eluted from the immunosorbents was always above 85%.

Abstract
Proteins and enzymes are now generally thought to be organized within the cell to form clusters in a dynamic and versatile way, and heterologous protein-protein interactions are believed to be involved in virtually all cellular events. Therefore we need appropriate tools to detect and study such interactions. Chromatographic techniques prove to be well suited for this kind of investigation. Real complexes formed between proteins can be studied by classic gel filtration. When enzymes are studied, active enzyme gel chromatography is a useful alternative. A variant of classic gel filtration is gel filtration equilibrium analysis, which is similar to equilibrium dialysis. When the association formed is only dynamic and equilibrates very rapidly, either the Hummel-Dryer method of equilibrium gel filtration or large-zone equilibrium filtration sometimes allows the interactions to be analyzed, both qualitatively and quantitatively. Very often, however, interactions between enzymes and proteins can only be evidenced in vitro in media that mimic the intracellular situation. Immobilized proteins are excellent tools for this type of research. Several examples are indeed known where the immobilization of an enzyme on a solid support does not affect its real properties, but rather changes its environment in such a way that the diffusion becomes limiting. Affinity chromatography using immobilized proteins allows the analysis of heterologous protein-protein interactions, both qualitatively and quantitatively. A useful alternative appears to be affinity electrophoresis. The latter technique, however, is exclusively qualitative. All these techniques are described and illustrated with examples taken from the literature.

Abstract
Monoclonal antibodies of two clones reacting with the nonnative forms of d-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, EC 1.2.1.12 (GAPDH), were obtained. Antibodies of clone 6C5 belonged to IgG1 subtype; antibodies of clone 6G7 belonged to IgM type. The interaction of antibodies of both clones with the immobilized and soluble enzyme was studied. The specificity of antibodies to the definite oligomeric forms was demonstrated on immobilized monomers, dimers, and tetramers of GAPDH. The affinity of antibodies to monomeric and dimeric forms of GAPDH, either active or not, was demonstrated. At the same time the antibodies did not react with the tetrameric enzyme. The binding of antibodies had no influence on the enzymatic activity. However, the addition of antibodies to the denatured enzyme blocked the spontaneous renaturation of GAPDH. The immobilized antibodies of both clones were successfully used for the purification of GAPDH solution from the denatured admixtures.

Abstract
The binding of denatured B. stearothermophilus D-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) to the E. coli chaperonin GroEL was investigated in two systems: (1) GroEL immobilized on Sepharose via a single subunit was titrated with urea-denatured soluble GAPDH and (2) a Sepharose-bound denatured GAPDH monomer was titrated with soluble GroEL. Similar apparent KD values for the complex GroEL x GAPDH were obtained in both cases (0.04 and 0.03 microM, respectively), the stoichiometry being 1.0 mol chaperonin per GAPDH subunit in the system with the immobilized GroEL and 0.2 mol chaperonin per Sepharose-bound GAPDH monomer. Addition of GroEL and Mg x ATP to a reactivation mixture increased the yield of reactivation of both E. coli and B. stearothermophilus GAPDHs. Incubation of the Sepharose-bound catalytically active tetrameric and dimeric GAPDH forms with the protein fraction of a wild-type E. coli cell extract resulted in the binding of GroEL to the dimer and no interaction with the tetrameric form. These data suggest that GroEL may be capable of interacting with the interdimeric contact regions of the folded GAPDH dimers.

Abstract
Interaction between protein disulfide isomerase, possessing not only isomerase but also chaperone-like activity, and olygomeric enzyme, GAPDH, has been studied using technique of immobilization on insoluble support. PDI dimers bound to CNBr-activated Sepharose were shown to possess high TPOR activity as well as the ability to reactivate lysozyme. Immobilized PDI was not found to interact neither with soluble tetrameric GAPDH, nor with soluble denatured GAPDH. However, soluble PDI binds effectively to immobilized GAPDH monomers; Kd was found to be 3.7 x 10(-6) M, stoichiometry 0.824 mole PDI monomers per mole GAPDH monomers. Immobilized GAPDH tetramers do not interact with PDI. These observations are also confirmed by the data on electrophoresis of proteins bound to immobilized GAPDH monomers and tetramers. The ability of PDI to interact with denatured protein form, but not with the native one, is considered to be evidence of chaperone-like activity of the enzyme.

Abstract
In recent years it has become clear that a cell cannot be visualized as a 'bag' filled with enzymes dissolved in bulk water. The aqueous-phase properties in the interior of a cell are, indeed, essentially different from those of an ordinary aqueous solution. Large amounts of water are believed to be organized in layers at the surface of intracellular structural proteins and membranes. Such considerations prompt us to reconsider the operation and regulation of metabolic pathways. Enzymes of metabolic pathways are nowadays thought to be clustered and operate as 'metabolons'. Very often interactions between enzymes of a pathway can exclusively be evidenced in vitro in media which are known to reduce the water concentration in the vicinity of the proteins. Immobilized enzyme preparations have been shown to be excellent tools for this type of research. We describe here some recent studies where immobilized enzymes have been used in various applications to investigate associations among enzymes of a number of different metabolic pathways (glycolysis/gluconeogenesis, citric acid cycle and its connection to the electron transport chain, aspartate-malate shuttle, glyoxylate cycle). Advantages and disadvantages of the different techniques are also discussed.

Abstract
Polyacrylamide supports, in a range of pore sizes, were investigated as nucleic acid affinity matrices for the detection of target DNA or RNA sequences using a sandwich hybridization format. Bromoacetyl and thiol oligonucleotide derivatives were covalently linked to sulfhydryl- and bromoacetyl-polyacrylamide supports with greater than 95% end-attachment efficiencies. These polyacrylamide-oligonucleotide supports were further derivatized with anionic residues to provide multi-functional supports which show low non-specific binding for non-complementary nucleic acids. While all the polyacrylamide-oligonucleotide supports capture complementary oligonucleotides with high affinity, the pore size was found to be a critical parameter in sandwich hybridization reactions. The superior hybridization characteristics of the Trisacryl support was ascribed to a combination of its macroporous nature, hydrophilicity and the terminal attachment of its capture oligonucleotides.

Abstract
Factors affecting the specific activity of immobilized antibodies and their biologically active fragments were studied with goat anti-mouse and goat anti-human immunoglobulin G. Antibodies were immobilized on HW 65 polymeric support matrix activated with carbonyldiimidazole, hydrazide and iodoacetic acid. The most significant factors influencing the specific activity of stochastic coupling of antibodies are multi-site attachment, multiple orientations and steric hindrance imposed by crowding of antibody and the size of the antigen. In oriented immobilization the specific activity is affected only by steric hindrance. The specific activity of immunosorbents prepared by immobilization of F(ab') fragments can be improved to almost 100% by limiting the amount of protein immobilization and the size of the antigen. The present study shows the protocols for optimizing immobilized antibody performance.

Abstract
Methods are described for the automated evaluation of affinity columns by frontal boundary analysis. These methods were used to evaluate the performance of immunoaffinity columns based on antilysozyme monoclonal antibody-lysozyme immunoaffinity system. This model system enabled the effects of (i) matrix activation and (ii) the density of immobilized antibody on the change in specific activity of immobilized antibody to be quantitatively assessed. Experimental data were accumulated with carbonyldiimidazole-activated Fractogel HW65F and Trisacryl GF2000 resins and cyanogen bromide-activated Sepharose 4B. An increase in the molar ratio between the concentration of the active groups on the activated matrix and the concentration of immobilized antibody ligands did not result in significant change in the specific activity of the immobilized antibody in the immunochromatographic system. However, increased antibody density with the Fractogel HW65F resin resulted in an increase in the apparent heterogeneity of antibody binding sites for lysozyme and a significant decrease in the specific activity of the immobilized antibody. Furthermore, data from size-exclusion studies with these immunoaffinity matrices demonstrated that at high antibody densities, the accessibility of the immobilized antibody was further decreased due to steric resistance as the antigen size increased.

Abstract
The avidin/biotin system was applied as a general mediator in the adsorption/desorption or immobilization of biologically active macromolecules to solid supports. In this context, model biotinylated proteins (lectins and antibodies) were attached to avidin-coupled Sepharose. As examples for affinity chromatography, peanut agglutinin and anti-transferrin antibody were used to isolate asialofetuin and transferrin, respectively. The capacity and product yields were significantly better than those achieved with conventional affinity chromatography on CNBr-activated Sepharose columns containing the same lectin or antibody. Moreover, the columns were characterized by improved stability properties exhibiting remarkably low levels of leakage.

Abstract
The effective therapeutic use of many small peptides such as growth hormone has been limited by their small molecular masses and rapid clearance by the kidneys. Moreover, various degrees of nephrotoxicity have been reported for small proteins which are readily filtered at the level of the glomerulus. We have attempted to circumvent this drawback by conjugating growth hormone (somatotropin) to serum albumin in an effort to alter the peptide's pharmacokinetics while retaining its biological activity.

Abstract
In developing therapeutic immunoadsorbents (IAs), antibodies (IgG molecules) covalently immobilized on porous carriers, a leak of IgG was determined both in the storage test with buffers at 25 and 4 degrees C and in contact with plasma at room temperature (RT). The amount of antibody released from therapeutic IAs must be minimized to avoid side effects during treatment. The amount of IgG released was a. Dependent on the amount of IgG immobilized b. Much greater with CNBr-activated Sepharose 4B, or Formyl-Cellulofine as a support material than with aminopropyl CPG (controlled pore glass) c. Found to yield again during another storage in buffers after the IAs were washed and their buffers replaced with fresh ones and d. Decreased after the IAs were treated with glutaraldehyde (GA) solutions. Whereas treating the IAs with GA solutions significantly reduced the amount of IgG released, it caused some deterioration of the adsorption characteristics of the IAs. An irradiation dose of 2.5 Mrad as a crosslinking procedure also reduced the amount of IgG released; its effect was comparable to that of 0.025% GA, the lowest concentration used.

Abstract
Serum factors may be responsible for reduced host-anti-tumor defence. Although there is still confusion about their origin, attempts have been made to immobilize serum components by Protein A columns as a therapeutic modality. In our study the in vitro adsorption of 90% of the IgG from cancer sera on "immobilized protein A" did not influence the inhibitory serum activity as measured in a mixed lymphocyte culture. Therefore, IgG or immune complexes do not seem to be the suppressive serum factor in patients with advanced colorectal carcinoma. There is evidence for leakage of small amounts of protein A from the columns which have immunostimulatory activity. Perhaps this may explain necrosis after a therapeutic immunoadsorption.

Abstract
Implantation of hydrocarbon chains on beaded agarose results in column materials capable of adsorbing erythrocytes or lymphocytes from various sources. In a homologous series of such columns, identical in all structural respects (ligand density, charge density and ultrastructure) except for the length of their hydrocarbon chains, the capacity to adsorb these cells generally increases with increase in the number of carbon atoms per chain. The cells can be desorbed from the columns by repeated gentle pipetting in the presence of bovine serum albumin (for erythrocytes) or foetal calf serum (for lymphocytes). Under the conditions used for adsorption and desorption there is neither physical entrapment of the cells in the column nor apparent damage to their integrity, as indicated by the facts that (a) 95-98% of the cells applied on the column can be recovered; (b) erythrocytes eluted from the column and those yet to be applied are morphologically indistinguishable, exhibit an identical osmotic fragility profile and, (after desorption) retain the same adsorption profile for the columns; and (c) over 95% of the mouse spleen lymphocytes, eluted from the columns, continue to exclude the dye Trypan blue, suggesting that they preserve their viability. Cells from different sources exhibit different adsorption profiles on homologous series of alkylagaroses, allowing the detection of differences in the surface of these cells and their resolution by these columns. Exploratory experiments with artificial cell mixtures are described, illustrating the possibility of enriching the mixture with one of the cell types by preferential adsorption or exclusion on an appropriate alkylagarose. The best resolution was obtained with a mixture of erythrocytes and spleen lymphocytes (both from DBA/1 mice). After appropriate "tailoring" of the column material used (an ethylagarose) it was possible to apply a 1:1 mixture of these cells and to obtain (after preferential adsorption) essentially pure erythrocytes (98% of the excluded cells).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Abstract
In novel, low-speed sedimentation assays, highly purified, sonicated Dictyostelium discoideum plasma membrane fragments bind to F-actin beads (fluorescein-labeled F-actin on antifluorescein IgG-Sephacryl S-1000 beads). Binding was found to be (a) specific, since beads containing bound fluorescein-labeled ovalbumin or beads without bound fluorescein-labeled protein do not bind membranes, (b) saturable at approximately 0.6 microgram of membrane protein per microgram of bead-bound F-actin, (c) rapid with a t1/2 of 4-20 min, and (d) apparently of reasonable affinity since the off rate is too slow to be measured by present techniques. Using low-speed sedimentation assays, we found that sonicated plasma membrane fragments, after extraction with chaotropes, still bind F-actin beads. Heat-denatured membranes, proteolyzed membranes, and D. discoideum lipid vesicles did not bind F-actin beads. These results indicate that integral membrane proteins are responsible for the binding between sonicated membrane fragments and F-actin on beads. This finding agrees with the previous observation that integral proteins mediate interactions between D. discoideum plasma membranes and F-actin in solution (Luna, E.J., V. M. Fowler, J. Swanson, D. Branton, and D. L. Taylor, 1981, J. Cell Biol., 88:396-409). We conclude that low-speed sedimentation assays using F-actin beads are a reliable method for monitoring the associations between F-actin and membranes. Since these assays are relatively quantitative and require only micrograms of membranes and F-actin, they are a significant improvement over other existing techniques for exploring the biochemical details of F-actin-membrane interactions. Using F-actin beads as an affinity column for actin-binding proteins, we show that at least 12 integral polypeptides in D. discoideum plasma membranes bind to F-actin directly or indirectly. At least four of these polypeptides appear to span the membrane and are thus candidates for direct transmembrane links between the cytoskeleton and the cell surface.

Abstract
Several carrier systems and targeting agents have been considered as means of delivering enzymes and drugs to specific tissues or cells. In this report insulin is shown to be effective in delivering enzyme-albumin conjugates to cells and tissues rich in insulin receptors. The complex is transported into cells by a process that resembles receptor-mediated endocytosis and can be identified in a lysosomal fraction. The enzyme-albumin-insulin complex retains its enzymatic activity and its ability to bind antibodies to insulin. It also has a hypoglycemic effect; however, plasma glucose concentrations can be maintained by glucose administration.

Abstract
A novel method developed for the preparation of immunoadsorbents is based on the technique of coating potential column supports with a propylene glycol alginate ester film created by emulsion polymerisation. The cross-linking of the film with 1,2-diaminoethane in alkaline solution resulted in a water-permeable but water-insoluble film which was stable at high pH. Sheep anti-(human IgG) was subsequently coupled to the cyanogen-bromide-activated film and the resultant immunoadsorbents were used to purify IgG from whole human serum. The production of the film-coated supports, chemical coupling of antibody and the chromatographic characteristics of four alginate-film-coated supports are described. With the use of Sepharose--alginate-ester--sheep-anti-(human IgG) immunoadsorbent the overall yield for IgG from five serial adsorption-elution cycles was 94% of the adsorbed IgG. This immunoadsorbent proved to be of high binding capacity and allowed the elution of specific antigen in almost 100% yield and high purity with minimal non-specific interference from other serum proteins.

Abstract
Linear maltooligosaccharides, e.g., maltoheptaose or terminal 4-O-methylmaltoheptaose, activated by cyanogen bromide, react covalently with rabbit muscle phosphorylases b and a (EC 2.4.1.1). Site-specific modification prevents further binding to glycogen and shifts the phosphorylase a tetramer-dimer equilibrium in favor of the dimer. Use was made of these properties to separate by affinity chromatography and gel filtration phosphorylase a dimers with specifically bound oligosaccharide from unspecifically modified products. The phosphorylase a-maltoheptaose derivative carries one oligosaccharide residue per monomer and can be distinguished from the native enzyme by its electrophoretic mobility in polyacrylamide gels or by affinity electrophoresis. Phosphorylase a preparations with covalently bound maltooligosaccharides are enzymatically active in the presence of a primer and alpha-D-glucopyranose 1-phosphate (glucose-1-P). Methylation of the nonreducing chain terminus of the bound oligosaccharide has no effect on glycogen synthesis. These findings exclude the participation of bound oligosaccharides in chain elongation. Purified covalent phosphorylase a-maltoheptaose complexes are stable dimers. They are no longer activated by glycogen. The properties of covalently modified phosphorylase-oligosaccharides are consistent with and provide direct evidence for the existence of a glycogen storage site in rabbit muscle phosphorylases. Covalent occupation of the storage site renders the affinity of glucose-1-P to phosphorylase a independent of modulation by glycogen, supporting the assumption that the glycogen storage site is involved in interactions with the catalytic site.

Abstract
Specific binding sites for [Asp1,Ile5]angiotensin II (angiotensin) have been demonstrated in homogenates and subcellular fractions of aortic medial smooth muscle cells, but the localization of the angiotensin receptor responsible for contraction has not been determined [Devynck, M. A., & Meyer, P. (1976) Am. J. Med. 61, 758-767]. To establish the location of this receptor, we have prepared a membrane-impermeable analogue of angiotensin by acylating its N-terminal amino group with the N-hydroxysuccinimide ester of succinylated ferritin. This angiotensin-ferritin conjugate possessed the same intrinsic activity as angiotensin but was approximately 200 times less potent in inducing contraction in rabbit aortic strips. The stability of the conjugate was investigated, and approximately 5% of the contractile activity of the angiotensin-ferritin conjugate was attributable to low molecular weight components that were present before or after exposure to aortic strips. The time required for aortic strips to reach a plateau of contraction in response to angiotensin-ferritin was significantly longer than that required by free angiotensin to produce the same level of contraction. With enzymatically dispersed aortic smooth muscle cells, however, the time taken to produce contractions by both angiotensin and angiotensin-ferritin was indistinguishable. [Sar1,-Ala8]angiotensin II, a competitive inhibitor of angiotensin, completely suppressed contractions induced by angiotensin or angiotensin-ferritin in aortic strips or dispersed aortic smooth muscle cells. These results suggest that angiotensin need not directly penetrate the plasma membrane to cause contraction and imply that the angiotensin receptor responsible for initiating contraction of aortic smooth muscle cells is located on the plasma membrane.
