Flt3配体(FL)是一类具有促进早期造血功能的细胞因子,在促进造血细胞生长发育及造血动员方面具有重要的临床应用价值。为了用基因工程方法获得大量用于临床和研究的重组人FL(rhFL)蛋白质,本文对在大肠杆菌(E. coli)中表达得到的Flt3配体的包涵体进行回收、洗涤,溶解于8 mol/L脲后在高效疏水相互作用色谱(HPHIC)柱上进行rhFL包涵体的复性与同时纯化,并对其保留特征和复性规律进行了研究。结果表明,在连续进样、变性蛋白质质量浓度为8.51 g/L、固定相选用端基为PEG800、流动相添加4 mol/L脲、1.8 mmol/L 还原型谷胱甘肽(GSH)和0.3 mmol/L氧化型谷胱甘肽(GSSH)、pH 7.0的优化条件下,复性与同时纯化rhFL包涵体的质量回收率为36.9%,纯度达94.5%以上。本文仅用一步HPHIC法成功地复性与同时纯化了rhFL蛋白质,为获得高活性的rhFL产品奠定了一定的工作基础。     

用疏水色谱复性并同时纯化蛋白质的机理及其应用

变性蛋白表面的疏水氨基酸残基有与疏水色谱固定相(STHIC)颗粒相互作用的倾向, 两者之间的疏水相互作用能够抑制变性蛋白分子间的相互聚集. 同时疏水色谱固定相还能在分子水平上给变性蛋白分子提供足够高的能量, 使其瞬时脱水并折叠成其天然构象或不同的折叠中间体. 变性蛋白在疏水界面上的折叠不仅取决于其氨基酸之间的特异性相互作用及疏水色谱固定相的结构, 而且还取决于固定相和流动相之间的协同作用. 同时, 还提出了高效疏水相互色谱(HPHIC)进行蛋白折叠的机理及其进行蛋白折叠时能实现质量控制的原理. 在适当的色谱条件下, HPHIC 可使几种变性蛋白一步实现复性及同时纯化. 此外, 还设计制造出了直径比柱长大得多的实验室型和制备型“变性蛋白复性及同时纯化装置, USRPP”, 该“装置”具有完全除去变性剂、使蛋白质复性, 与杂蛋白分离及易于回收变性剂的“一石四鸟”功能. 该“装置”对变性蛋白的复性和纯化效率与通常使用的长柱相当. 在制备规模情况下, 该“装置”可以在低压梯度条件下简便、快速、而经济地应用于重组蛋白药物的制备. 文中以重组人干扰素-γ为例, 说明了制备型“装置”在其复性及同时纯化生产工艺中的应用.     

用疏水色谱对还原型胍变性牛胰岛素的折叠特性研究

用疏水相互色谱(HPHIC)对还原胍变性牛胰岛素在疏水界面上的折叠与复性进行了研究.结果表明,采用普通流动相时,对还原胍变胰岛素的复性效果较差,而采用氧化型流动相可使其复性效率提高到66%,并用反相色谱(RPLC)、紫外吸收光谱、荧光光谱及MALDI-TOF对其复性效果进行了验证.同时与体积排阻色谱(SEC)和稀释法对还原胍变胰岛素的复性结果进行了比较.结果表明,SEC根本无法使还原胍变胰岛素复性,而稀释法的复性效率仅有2%.这进一步表明HPHIC是变性蛋白复性的有效工具,变性蛋白在疏水界面折叠过程中,蛋白质与固定相之间的疏水相互作用对蛋白折叠起着关键性的作用,是蛋白折叠的主要驱动力.     

疏水作用色谱法同时纯化及复性基因重组人干扰素-α

 使用高效疏水作用色谱直接从大肠杆菌表达的基因重组人干扰素 α(rhIFN α)包涵体的裂解液中纯化了rhIFN α ,并在纯化的同时获得了高的复性效率 ,使复性和纯化一步完成 ,大大地简化了操作步骤。用凝胶排阻色谱对该法纯化的rhIFN α进行了纯度测定 ,纯度达到 95 %以上。该法的活性回收率分别比稀释法和透析法高 1 0倍和 1 6倍。

四氢糠醇对α-胰凝乳蛋白酶在液相色谱中复性效率的影响

用高效疏水相互作用色谱（HPHIC）研究了将四氢糠醇加入盐酸胍（GuHCl)变性剂中或将四氢糠醇键合至硅胶基质时，对α－胰凝乳蛋白酶（α-Chy)复性效率的影响情况，并以α－Chy的生物活性回收率对结果进行了表征。用尺寸排阻色谱（SEG）与HPHIC的实验结果进行了比较，结果表明，四氢糠醇在变性剂中和键合至硅胶上时，均可提高α－Chy的复性效率，但提高的程度不同。四氢糠醇在溶液中或在HPHIC固定相表面时具有辅助α－Chy进行复性作用的机理可能是由于四氢糠醇与α－Chy形成了复合物的形式。实验中还对GuHCl中加入的四氢糠醇量进行了优化。

动力学因素对液相色谱分离整体蛋白的影响

依据液相色谱分离整体蛋白的效果与色谱柱柱长基本无关的事实,研究了动力学因素对疏水相互作用色谱(HIC)分离整体蛋白的影响。首次提出了用于线性梯度洗脱条件下蛋白分离的“条件板高”(H)概念,并将其用于动力学因素对分离整体蛋白的影响的表征。分别用常用的色谱柱和色谱饼对标准蛋白进行了分离,绘制了类似于van Deemter的“条件板高”对流动相线速(u)的曲线图。发现对应于色谱柱最低“条件板高”的适合线速约为色谱饼的1/5～1/15,且色谱饼的适合线速范围也较色谱柱宽得多。据此,用装填有HIC填料的色谱饼(10 mm×20 mm i.d.)在12 min内便可完全分离7种标准蛋白。还用装填有HIC填料的色谱饼对重组人粒细胞集落刺激因子(rhG-CSF)进行了复性并同时纯化,在50 min内,仅用一步色谱法就可获得纯度≥97%的rhG-CSF,其质量回收率为39%,比活＞1×108 IU/mg。可以预计,装填极细颗粒的刚性色谱填料的色谱饼可在高负荷条件下进行整体蛋白的高速和高分离度的分离、纯化并同时复性,达到“三高”。     

蛋白折叠液相色谱法中流动相对重组人干扰素-γ质量回收率的影响

蛋白折叠液相色谱法(PFLC)用于变性蛋白质复性并同时纯化时对流动相组成及其洗脱条件的要求远较通常的液相色谱法高。用端基为PEG-200的高效疏水作用色谱固定相对重组人干扰素-γ(rhIFN-γ)进行纯化并同时复性,详细研究了流动相组成、梯度洗脱模式和流速对rhIFN-γ质量回收率和活性的影响。分别以3.0 mol/L (NH4)2SO4 +0.05 mol/L KH2PO4(pH 7.0)和0.05 mol/L KH2PO4(pH 7.0)为流动相A和B,采用35 min非线性梯度洗脱时,所得rhIFN-γ的质量回收率最高。     

Solubilization and Refolding with Simultaneous Purification of Recombinant Human Stem Cell Factor

Recombinant human stem cell factor (rhSCF) was solubilized and renatured from inclusion bodies expressed in Escherichia coli. The effect of both pH and urea on the solubilization of rhSCF inclusion bodies was investigated; the results indicate that the solubilization of rhSCF inclusion bodies was significantly influenced by the pH of the solution employed, and low concentration of urea can drastically improve the solubilization of rhSCF when solubilized by high pH solution. The solubilized rhSCF can be easily refolded with simultaneous purification by ion exchange chromatography (IEC), with a specific activity of 7.8 × 10⁵ IU·mg⁻¹, a purity of 96.3%, and a mass recovery of 43.0%. The presented experimental results show that rhSCF solubilized by high pH solution containing low concentration of urea is easier to be renatured than that solubilized by high concentration of urea, and the IEC refolding method was more efficient than dilution refolding and dialysis refolding for rhSCF. It may have a great potential for large-scale production of rhSCF.

高效液相色谱-串联质谱法测定烟草中有机磷农药的残留量

Refolding and simultaneous purification of recombinant human proinsulin from inclusion bodies on protein‐folding liquid‐chromatography columns

Protein‐folding liquid chromatography (PFLC) is an effective and scalable method for protein renaturation with simultaneous purification. However, it has been a challenge to fully refold inclusion bodies in a PFLC column. In this work, refolding with simultaneous purification of recombinant human proinsulin (rhPI) from inclusion bodies from Escherichia coli were investigated using the surface of stationary phases in immobilized metal ion affinity chromatography (IMAC) and high‐performance size‐exclusion chromatography (HPSEC). The results indicated that both the ligand structure on the surface of the stationary phase and the composition of the mobile phase (elution buffer) influenced refolding of rhPI. Under optimized chromatographic conditions, the mass recoveries of IMAC column and HPSEC column were 77.8 and 56.8% with purifies of 97.6 and 93.7%, respectively. These results also indicated that the IMAC column fails to refold rhPI, and the HPSEC column enables efficient refolding of rhPI with a low‐urea gradient‐elution method. The refolded rhPI was characterized by circular dichroism spectroscopy. The molecular weight of the converted human insulin was further confirmed with SDS–18% PAGE, Matrix‐Assisted Laser Desorption/ Ionization Time of Flight Mass Spectrometry (MALDI‐TOF‐MS) and the biological activity assay by HP‐RPLC.

Simultaneous determination of levofloxacin and ciprofloxacin in human urine by ionic‐liquid‐based,dual‐template molecularly imprinted coated graphene oxide monolithic solid‐phase extraction

A novel method was developed to simultaneously determine the ciprofloxacin and levofloxacin levels in human urine using an ionic‐liquid‐based, dual‐molecularly imprinted polymer‐coated graphene oxide solid‐phase extraction monolithic column coupled with high‐performance liquid chromatography. The molecularly imprinted monolithic column was prepared using ciprofloxacin and levofloxacin as templates, 1‐vinyl‐3‐ethylimidazolium bromide as the functional monomer, and graphene oxide as the core material. The resulting imprinted monoliths were characterized by scanning electron microscopy and fourier transform‐infrared spectroscopy. The efficiency and capacity of the ionic‐liquid‐based imprinted monolithic column were investigated by varying the synthesis conditions (ciprofloxacin/levofloxacin ratio and template/functional monomer/cross‐linker ratio). The solid‐phase extraction process was optimized by changing the washing and eluting conditions. The results suggested that the proposed ionic‐liquid‐based molecularly imprinted solid‐phase extraction monolithic‐high‐performance liquid chromatography method could separate ciprofloxacin and levofloxacin efficiently and simultaneously from human urine. The mean recoveries of ciprofloxacin and levofloxacin ranged from 89.2 to 93.8 and 86.7 to 94.6%, respectively. The intra‐ and interday relative standard deviation ranged from 0.9 to 3.2 and 0.8 to 2.9%, respectively. Under the optimized conditions, the recoveries of ciprofloxacin and levofloxacin were more than 93.8%.     

Application of counter-current chromatography as a new pretreatment method for the determination of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in environmental water

Counter‐current chromatography (CCC) was investigated as a new sample pretreatment method for the determination of trace polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in water environmental samples. The experiment was performed with a non‐aqueous binary two‐phase solvent system composed of n‐heptane and acetonitrile. The CCC column was first filled with the upper stationary phase, and then a large volume of water sample was pumped into the column while the CCC column was rotated at 1600 rpm. Finally, the trace amounts of PAHs extracted and enriched in the stationary phase were eluted out by the lower mobile phase and determined by gas chromatography–flame ionization detector (GC‐FID) or gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC‐MS). The enrichment and cleanup of PAHs can be fulfilled online by this method with high recoveries (84.1–103.2%) and good reproducibility (RSDs: 4.9–12.2%) for 16 EPA PAHs under the optimized CCC pretreatment conditions. This method has been successfully applied to determine PAHs in lake water where 8 PAHs were detected in the concentration of 40.9–89.9 ng/L. The present method is extremely suitable for the preparation of large volume of environmental water sample for the determination of trace amounts of organic pollutants including PAHs as studied in this paper.
