Immobilized metal ion affinity chromatography (IMAC) was used to separate various types of recombinant hirudins from the culture broth. The wild type hirudin exhibited a retention in Cu(II)-chelated affinity chromatgoraphy since it contained a single exposed histidine at position 51. To obtain a stronger retention on an IDA-Cu(II) column, the hirudin variants were genetically engineered to contain one or two histidine (s) more than the wild type. While the affinity of the variants for IDA-Cu(II) ligand increased in comparison to that of the wild type, the antithrombin activities reduced to a certain degree. Cu(II), Ni(II) and Zn(II) ions were applied separately to the metal chelate column to investigate ligand specificity with respect to protein retention. As a result, the Cu(II) chelated chromatography gave the best resolution for all the hirudins tested and appeared to be the only IMAC that could be used generally for the purification of hirudins with a decreasing pH gradient.

Targeted glycoproteomics is an effective way to discover disease-associated glycoproteins in proteomics and serial affinity chromatography (SAC) using lectin and glycan-targeting antibodies shows glycan diversity on the captured glycoproteins. This study suggests a way to determine glycan heterogeneity and structural analysis on the post-translationally modified proteins through serial affinity column set (SACS) using four Lycopersicon esculentum lectin (LEL) columns. The great advantage of this method is that it differentiates between glycoproteins on the basis of their binding affinity. Through this study, some proteins were identified to have glycoforms with different affinity on a single glycoprotein. It will be particularly useful in determining biomarkers in which the disease-specific feature is a unique glycan, or a group of glycans.

An $\alpha$-D-galactosidase ($\alpha$-D-galactoside galactohydrolase, EC 3. 2. 1. 22) from earthworm was purified by affinity chromatography using N-$\varepsilon$-aminocaproyl-$\alpha$-D-galactopyranosylamine coupled to sepharose and its properties were examined. The specific activity of the purified enzyme, tested with p-nitrophenyl-$\alpha$-D-galactopyranoside as substrate, was 314 units/mg protein, representing an 122-fold purification of the original crude extract. The final preparation obtained from by Sephadex G-25 chromatography showed a single band on SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The molecular weight was determined to be 48,000 by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The purified galactosidase was showed maximum activity at pH 4.5 and 4$0^{\circ}C$, and was stable in the pH and temperature ranges from 4.0 to 5.5 and 30 to 5$0^{\circ}C$, respectively. The enzyme activity was inhibited by Zn2+, Hg2+ and Co2+. When the purified $\alpha$-galactosidase treated to guar gum for 6 hour, gel-promoting property was increased. It was clear that enzymatic elimination of galactose from guar gum by purified $\alpha$-galactosidase would lead to a significant increase in gelation ability.

Saccharomyces cerevisiae로 부터 glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase을 신속하고 간편하게 정제하는 과정을 affinity chromatography를 이용하여 개발하였다. 이 효소를 정제하는데 적절한 affinity medium을 조사해 본 결과, $NADP^+ -agarose$와 Affi-gel Blue(Cibacron Blue F3GA)가 Affi-gel Red(Procion Red HE-3B), AMP-agarose, ATP-agarose, 그리고 $NADP^+ -agarose$보다 유용함이 밝혀졌다. 이 두가지 affinity media에 흡착된 효소를 분리 하는데 가장 적합한 elution 조건을 조사하였는데 KCI gradient( (0-1.OM)가 효소의 순도 및 수회율을 가장 높일 수 있는 적합한 방법이었다. 특히 Affi-gel Blue를 사용할 경우, KCI gradient로 효소를 용출시키기 전에 NAD-(15mM)로NAD+에 친화역을 갖는 효소들을 제거하는 것이 enzyme의 순도를 높이는데 매우 효과적이었다. 그 결과 glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase를 baker's yeast로 부터 기존의 간단한 정제 과정과 affinity chromatography를 병행한 방식을 샤용하여 분리 하였는데, affinity medium으로 Affi-gel Blue를 사용했을 때는 180배 정도, NADP+-agarose를 사용했을 때는 2,000배 정도로 정제 되었다. 대량으로 glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase를 정제하는 경우, Affi-gel Blue를 사용하던 효소의 순도는 NADP+-agarose보다 낮으나, 효소의 회수율은 훨씬 더 높았다. 또한 G-6-P dehydrogenase에 대한 affinity medium의 capacity도 Affi-gel Blue가 NADP+-agarose보다 5배정도 높았으며 더우기 Affi-gel Blue는 여러번 반복적으로 사용될 수 있고, 그 제조 과정도 NADP+-agarose보다 간단하며 경비도 적게 들었다.

For the production and purification of a single chain human insulin precursor, four types of fusion peptides $\beta$-galactosidase (LacZ), maltose binding protein (MBP), glutathione-S-transferase (GST), and (His)(sub)6-tagged sequence (HTS) were investigated. Recombinant E. coli harboring hybrid genes was cultivated at 37$\^{C}$ for 1h, and gene induction occurred when 0.2mM of isopropyl-D-thiogalactoside (IPTG) was added to the culture broth, except for E. coli BL21 (DE3) pLysS harboring a pET-BA cultivation with 1.0mM IPTG, followed by a longer than 4h batch fermentation respectively. DEAE-Sphacel and Sephadex G-200 gel filtration chromatography, amylose affinity chromatography, glutathione-sepharose 4B affinity chromatography, and a nickel chelating affinity chromatography system as a kind of immobilized metal ion affinity chromatography (IMAC) were all employed for the purification of a single chain human insulin precursor. The recovery yields of the HTS-fused, GST-fused, MBP-fused, and LacZ-fused single chain human insulin precursors resulted in 47%, 20%, 20%, and 18% as the total protein amounts respectively. These results show that a higher recovery yield of the finally purified recombinant peptides was achieved when affinity column chromatography was employed and when the fused peptide had a smaller molecular weight. In addition the pET expression system gave the highest productivity of a fused insulin precursor due to a two-step regulation of the gene expression, and the HTS-fused system provided the highest recovery of a fused insulin precursor based on a simple and specific separation using the IMAC technique.

Cytokinin과 단백질의 결합을 간단하게 결정하는 방법으로서 전기 영동법을 시도하고, 대두의 잎단백질과 cytokinin의 결합여부, cytokinin에 대한 affinity가 있는 단백질의 종류와 상대적 affinity를 조사하였다. 검토된 전기 영동법은 cytokinin과 단백질의 결합뿐만 아니라, cytokinin에 대한 상대적 affinity를 동시에 검정할 수 있는 장점을 가지고 있었다. Ammonium sulfate 침전법, Sephadex G-25 chromatography, paper chromatography, 그리고 전기영동법으로 대두의 잎단백질 중에 BA와 결합하는 단백질이 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 전기영동법으로 검정한 결과 BA와 결함하는 것이 3 group이 있고, 이중에서 전기영동 이동도로보아 분자량이 작은 단백질 분획과 전기영동 이동도 0.4부근의 분획은 BA에 대한 affinity가 비교적 낮은 반면, 이동도 $0.0{\sim}0.2$의 분획은 affinity가 큰 것으로 생각되었다.

Capture of non-glycoproteins during lectin affinity chromatography is frequently observed, although it would seem to be anomalous. In actuality, lectin affinity chromatography works at post-translational modification (PTM) sites on a glycoprotein which is not involved in protein-protein interactions (PPIs). In this study, serial affinity column set (SACS) using lectins followed by proteomics methods was used to identify PPI mechanisms of captured proteins in human plasma. MetaCore, STRING, Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA), and IntAct were individually used to elucidate the interactions of the identified abundant proteins and to obtain the corresponding interaction maps. The abundant non-glycoproteins were captured with the binding to the selected glycoproteins. Therefore, depletion process in sample pretreatment for abundant protein removal should be considered with more caution because it may lose precious disease-related low abundant proteins through PPIs of the removed abundant proteins in human plasma during the depletion process in biomarker discovery. Glycoproteins bearing specific glycans are frequently associated with cancer and can be specifically isolated by lectin affinity chromatography. Therefore, SACS using Lycopersicon esculentum lectin (LEL) can also be used to study disease interactomes.

우유의 지방분해 효소인 리파제를 분리 연구하기 위하여 홀몬처리 되지 않은 정상유와 홀몬 처리된 비정상유에서 리파제를 Heparin-Sepharose-CL-6B를 이용하여 분리 정제하였다. Heparin-Sepharose에 친화력을 조사한 결과 두 개의 효소활성이 있는 성분이 구분되었으며 한 성분은 Heparin-Sepharose-CL-6B에 결합되었고 다른 한 성분은 결합되지 않은 채 분리되었다. 친화성 크로마토그램에 결합되어 분리 정제된 리파제의 최적 온도, 최적 pH, 기질 특이성, 분자량 및 BSA의 활성제로서의 작용등 여러 가지 효소특성은 모두 동일한 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 홀몬처리된 소에서 얻은 우유의 경우에는 또 다른 호소활성 성분이 나타나 있음을 알았다. 이 lipolytic activity가 있는 성분은 Heparin-Sepharose-CL-6B에 친화력을 보이지 않았으므로 정상적인 milk lipase와는 구별된다. 따라서 홀몬처리된 소에서 얻은 우유에 함유된 성분중 Heparin-Sepharose에 결합된 효소는 유지방 자동산화에 영향을 끼치지 않으며 Heparin-Sepharose에 결합되자 않은 활성이 있는 성분은 자동산패에 영향을 크게 미친다고 볼 수 있다. 그 이유는 hormone의 불균형 상태로 인하여 생유에 자동산패가 일어날 수 있으며 이것은 비정상적으로 분비된 리파제 출현 사이에 연관관계가 있음을 의미한다.

The high affinity binding sites for angiotensin II were solubilized from rat liver membranes by treatment with CHAPS. The binding protein was also partially purified by angiotensin III inhibitor-coupled Affi-gel affinity chromatography. Binding to the intact membrances as well as to the solubilized preparation was specific and saturable. According to the Scatchard plot, the membrane preparations exhibited a single class of high affinity binding sites with a Kd OF 0.71 nM. The solubilized preparation also showed the presence of a single class of bindings sites with less affinity (Kd of 14 nM). Meanwhile the competition studies using angiotensin II analogues represented two separate binding sites for angiotensin II and single binding site for antagonist. These latter findings were correlated to the results provided by Garrison's research group. More works are needed to clarify this discrepancy.
