Thiophilic Adsorption Chromatography on Fractogel® <strong>EMD</strong> TA<br />

Advantages of tentacle-mediated<br />

thiophilic adsorption<br />

The binding mechanism of thiophilic adsorption<br />

chromatography is based on the specific interaction<br />

of a covalently bound sulphur-containing<br />

ligand immobilized on a chromatographic support<br />

with proteins or peptides. An electron<br />

donor-acceptor mechanism between the affinity<br />

ligand and tryptophan residues on the surface of<br />

the target molecule is responsible for the selective<br />

binding. Fractogel® <strong>EMD</strong> TA is designed specifically<br />

for the efficient isolation of antibodies. The<br />

synthesis is performed according to the tentacle<br />

technology where the group-specific ligands are<br />

present in high density. Thus, the thiophilic tentacle<br />

material has a high protein-binding capacity<br />

and is suitable for antibody purification on<br />

an analytical as well as a preparative scale. Due to<br />

the steric accessibility of the ligand, the resin provides<br />

minimized non-specific interactions with<br />

proteins combined with high protein binding capacities.<br />

The chemistry of the 3-S type ligand that<br />

is used for Fractogel® <strong>EMD</strong> TA allows significantly<br />

better thiophilic binding compared to the 2-S<br />

types which have more hydrophobic interaction.<br />

Application areas<br />

Thiophilic adsorption chromatography is specifically<br />

designed for the purification of immunoglobulins<br />

(monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies)<br />

including single-chain antibodies and chicken<br />

antibodies. Albumins are not adsorbed on thiophilic<br />

media, which often simplifies the effective<br />

separation of antibodies. The binding of the protein<br />

takes place mainly via accessible tryptophan<br />

and/or phenylalanine residues. Corresponding<br />

motifs can be observed within conserved regions<br />

of various antibodies. Antibodies of the IgM subclass<br />

can also bind to a Fractogel® <strong>EMD</strong> TA<br />

column. The binding of antibodies from different<br />

species to thiophilic adsorption supports offers<br />

advantages over protein A. Elution conditions at<br />

physiological pH values enable high recoveries of<br />

biologically active antibodies.<br />
