Deng G, Lin DQ, Yao SJ, Mei LH: Aqueous micellar two-phase system composed of hyamine-type hydrophobically modified ethylene oxide and application for cytochrome P450 BM-3 separation. J Chromatogr B Analyt Technol Biomed Life Sci. 2007 Jun 1;852(1-2):167-73. Epub 2007 Jan 13.
The hydrophobically modified ethylene oxide polymer, HM-EO, was modified with an alkyl halide to prepare a hyamine-type HM-EO, named N-Me-HM-EO, which could be used for forming N-Me-HM-EO/buffer aqueous micellar two-phase system. The critical micelle concentration of N-Me-HM-EO solution and the phase diagrams of N-Me-HM-EO/buffer systems were determined. By using this novel aqueous micellar two-phase system, the separation of cytochrome P450 BM-3 from cell extract was explored. The partitioning behavior of P450 BM-3 in N-Me-HM-EO/buffer systems was measured. The influences of some factors such as total proteins concentration, pH, temperature and salt concentration, on the partitioning coefficients of P450 BM-3 were investigated. Since the micellar aggregates in the N-Me-HM-EO enriched phase were positively charged, it was possible to conduct the proteins with different charges to top or bottom phases by adjusting pH and salt concentration in the system. A separation scheme consisting of two consecutive aqueous two-phase extraction steps was proposed: the first extraction with N-Me-HM-EO/buffer system at pH 8.0, and the second extraction in the same system at pH 6.0. The recovery of P450 BM-3 was 73.3% with the purification factor of 2.5. The results indicated that the aqueous micellar two-phase system composed of hyamine modified polysoap has a promising application for selective separation of biomolecules depending on the enhanced electrostatic interactions between micelles and proteins. |
