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 />
